Those penalty misses are brutal.

You forgot to highlight Ronaldo as out of the tournament

Damn, that hurts

Must have been a reason Kane was drafted before CR7?

God damn Jörgensen

Scoring all the goals when it counts!

Lukaku is going to destroy all of our hopes today

Forsberg... goat

I honestly don't know how that's not an OG

Original shot was on target, that’s all that matters when it comes to defensive deflections.

If Cuadrado took that corner (and I think he did), it looks like it couldn't be closer at the top.

Eleanor has to be big favourite with Golden Boot winner Harry Kane in his team.

which very stable genius took sir harry

Cuadrado did in fact get that assist and it now stands:

1st TP with 66
2nd eleanor with 66
(tie breaker in favour of TP right now)

Cina - 46
Andra - 43
Falcon - 39
Yippee - 37
Jabonator - 33
LFC - 31
MindFckr - 29
vruuuuk - 22

Players left:

vruuuuk - Neymar, Giroud, Smolov and Arrascaeta
Andre - Griezmann, Dembele and Dzyuba
Jabonator - Coutinho, Alli and Paulinho
eleanor - Kane, Modric, Forsberg and Batshuayi
MF - KdB, Kramaric, Golovin and Sanchez
Yippee - Jesus, Perisic, Willian and Carrasco
Cina - Hazard, Pogba, Rakitic and Marcelo
Falcon - Mbappe, Mandzukic and Fekir
LFC - Cavani, Mertens, Firmino, Rashforg and Vardy
TP - Suarez and Lukaku

2man race now. gg.

Thought I had a solid team to start with but definitely made mistakes (although insight is great):

-Ronaldo : good pick
-Hazard: good pick
-Higuain & Di Maria : lol argentina, didn't know Higuain would get benched like this
-Pogba: meh, ok with it despite his -1 (his goal got overruled)
-Kuba: lolpoland unexpected & got injured in 1st game, fine with it
-Honda: didn't see him as a sub despite my research, still managed a goal and an assist regardless, would have been a great pick if he started
-Rakitic: good pick
-Guardado: plays too deep, thought he was on pen duties, turns out he was not. bad pick
-Marcelo: meh, remains a defender and then got injured. didn't expect some of the average/mediocre teams to be scoring this many goals, would have been better off choosing an attacking player of a bad team

For some reason sterling is in red on the players lost

I didn't see him playing yesterday so I figured he was sent home

I'm definitely updating this today. Sorry for the long wait, weekend was a rush.

The weekend is coming up.

I'm really sorry, I don't even know how I got so much work on my hands in July.
I'm away from the office today for a music festival (Snow Patrol + Arctic Monkeys, meh). But I have a free day tomorrow so everything will be ready for the 2 finals matches.

Pogba has been superb. Maybe doesn't show up in assists/goals, but he has channeled Simeone through Griezmann or something and played excellent positional defense.

it is a scorepoint draft though

It's got to be super tight in the top 4? Anxiously waiting for tomorrow and Sunday!

Soooo, on to Uruguay vs France we got:

Goals: Griezmann (Andre)
Assist: Griezmann
Yellow Card: Mbappe (Falcon)

Next we had Brasil vs Belgium:

Goals: KdB (MF)
Assists: Lukaku (TP) and Coutinho (Jabonator)

On to Sweden vs England:

Goals: Dele Alli (Jabonator)

And the great Croatia vs Russia:

Goals: Kramaric (MF)
Assists: Dzyuba (Andre), Mandukic (Falcon), Modric (eleanor)
Shoot out goals: Rakitic (Cina), Modric
Shoot out misses: Smolov (that would be me)

ON TO THE SEMIS:

France vs Belgium:
Assists: Griezmann (Andre)
Yellows: Hazard (Cina), Mbappe (Falcon)

Croatia vs England:
Goals: Perisic (Yippee), Mandzukic (Falcon)
Assists: Perisic
Yellows: Mandzukic

I believe this is all. Still tied at the top going to the final 2 games.

TP - 69
eleanor - 69
Andre - 57
Cina - 48
Yippee - 45
Falcon - 44
Jabonator - 41
MF - 39
LFC - 31
vruuuuk - 17

I thought Eleanor was in front due to Modric shootout goal and assist vs Lukaku's assist in the quarters.

Forgot today's game was counted and had given up hope of winning.

Come on Romelu!
