Rules
Group Stage: Project the order each group will finish in 1-4. Every correct pick is worth 1 point for a maximum of 16 points.
Knockout Stage: Once you choose your group order, your projected knockout bracket will populate. Choose who you believe will win each remaining match.
Each correct semifinal team you select is worth 3 points. Each correct finals team you select is worth 5 points. Picking the champion correct is worth 7 points. A perfect bracket would receive 45 points.
Also just one note is that the team does not have to be in the right spot for you to get credit. If you think a team that finishes first in the group advances to the semis, but they finish 2nd and advance through a different portion of the bracket, you still get credit for picking that team correctly.
Tiebreaker: The tiebreaker is total goals scored in the final. Enter that at the bottom left of the bracket.
An error message will pop up if you have not filled out your bracket correctly. All brackets must be submitted no later than January 16th. They can be sent to briff@weglobalfootball.com or to weglobalfootball@gmail.com.
