I actually put this off for a day because I couldn't decide how I thought it would go, especially in this World Cup

 

[brakespear]

I forgot to put the final score in my France v Germany prediction it should be 2-4 to Germany.

 

[Taybha]

Great game cheers for running this TOT

SEMI-FINAL FIXTURES
Brazil v Germany
Argentina v Holland

Predictions are to be PMed to me by 8.59pm Tuesday 8 July - these will be revealed after each game.

You have one joker left to play across the last 4 games

 

[MattBackHome]

Outclassed at the quarter final stage. TYPICAL.

 

[Nathan]

Gutted to be out at this stage of the competition, but just couldn't get any predictions right. Great game, and good luck to those left in. Thanks Theatre of Trees.

 

[The Brighton Bear]

Just out of interest I have plotted the route to the final stage for the four finalists:

shaolinpunk
Winner of Group A with 247 points
2nd in Group D with 43 points
2nd in Group H with 46.5 points

Brighton Lines
Winner of Group B with 234 points
2nd in Group E with 36 points
Winner of Group G with 46 points

brakespeare
5th in Group B with 211 points (qualified as a high scorer)
Winner of Group D with 44 points
2nd in Group G with 41 points

The Brighton Bear
5th in Group A with 215 points (qualified as a high scorer)
2nd in Group F with 45 points
Winner of Group H with 48.5 points

Interesting that no-one from Group C made it to the finals and two finalists qualified from the first round via the high score route.

 

[Giraffe]

Farewell all. Many thanks for organising this.

Good luck to the final four.

 

[father_and_son]

Outclassed at the quarter final stage. TYPICAL.

Me too. Shocking set of results for me. Congrats to those through and big thanks to ToT for the effort put in.
