The Happy UEFA League PL Final 8--Deadline 7 April 20:05 17:23 - Mar 21 with 1424 viewsBarsidepete

BURNSIEESPANA, MFB_CUFC & GERRY_US enter the quarterfinals level on 5 points... In round 2, predict again who will progress. Not the scores. No tie-breaker except first-to-post, which only determines what the table will look like. For the Final (round 4), there will be a tie-breaker. But not for rounds 2 or 3.

The first table

1. BURNSIEESPANA ... (5-3) .......... (5-3) ..... (5 pts)
2. mfb_cufc ............... (5-3) .......... (5-3) ..... (5)
3. gerry_us ................ (5-3) .......... (5-3) ..... (5)
4. Barside/Iowa ......... (4-4) .......... (4-4) ..... (4)
5. concordman .......... (3-5) .......... (3-5) ..... (3)
6. thrillseeker ............. (2-6) ......... (2-6) ...... (2)
7. durham_exile ......... (0-8) ......... (0-8) ...... (0)

Pick the winners to reach the Final 4...worth 2 points each in round 2. -- no scores. Who will be in the semifinals?

7 April, first leg. 14 April, 2nd leg.

**First leg (20:05 kick-off) -- Pick your semifinalists after two legs. Not merely the winners 7 April.

Athletic Bilbao (Spain) v Sevilla (Spain)
Borussia Dortmund (Germany) v LIVERPOOL
Sporting Braga (Portugal) v Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine)
Villarreal (Spain) v Sparta Prague (Czech Rep.)

Round 3 in a month, the Semifinals, will be "traditional" scores (3 per spot-on, 1 for and outcome) and you may also select 2 (two) scorers, each goal worth 1 point. This may be TWO scorers on the same team or one from each side.

1. Barca 24-4-2 (76 pts)
2. Atl. Madrid 21-4-5 (67)

A week to go before Thursday (7 April). First legs of the quarters.

PIck your final 4. No scores. Who is in the Final 4.

Semifinals, then you also select two scorers from each team. That will be 1 point for each goal. Those stats will be sorted and posted after 14 April.

This round, simply predict your semifinal.

I'm actually shocked that Sparta Prague is getting so many votes to make the final 4.

1. Viktoria Plzeň (22 gp) 18-2-2 (56)
2. SPARTA PRAHA (21) 16-2-3 (50)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
3. Mladá Boleslav (22) 12-6-4 (42)

Look. Just because I was born in Czechoslovakia ... (and yes, did live in Prague as a young'un)

My Baník Ostrava is still bottom of the table, 2-2-18, 8 points, as bad as it could be. That's actually where I was born, just south of the Polish border.

Could Prague really pull this out? You think The U's have it bad? Crikey, be a Banik supporter

edit: 1 and 2 in the Czech Republic qualify for the Champions League.

I'm trying to find a definitive site for goal scorers in European leagues after 14 April, the second leg.

The semifinals will be the old fashioned predict-the-score, 3 points for a spot-on and 1 for an outcome.

But also 1 point per goal scored by any two you select.

Is there a site I haven't been able to google where I will be able to post the top 4 scorers, with the up to date stats?

This is so cool, that boarders care about Wessex League, MFB's league, the Happy Cup, my dumb Europa League (mine, yay me) ...

Daniel's The U'sual PL...

Crikey, we love our PLs on Daniel's site.

Thank you everyone who participates in MFB's, Wessex's, Happy's, mine --the Happy Cup and the NFL PL and that idiotic Europa League ...

MFB and I run the NFL. MFB and I run the Happy Cup.

Haps is always welcome to post games any week in any comp

I think Wessex is administrating the UEFA Euro 2016.

Onward.

Nice. Everyone on board.

My 4 to advance:

Athletic Bilbao (Spain) v Sevilla (Spain) -- Athletic Bilbao
Borussia Dortmund (Germany) v LIVERPOOL -- LIVERPOOL
Sporting Braga (Portugal) v Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine) -- Sporting Braga
Villarreal (Spain) v Sparta Prague (Czech Rep.) -- Sparta Prague

reminder: following the 2nd legs 14 April it will be scores (3 for spot-on and 1 for outcome) plus 1 point for each goal scored by two you select in each semifinal.

Will post who the top scorers are for all teams involved in the semis. So it won't just be a guessing game.

Kind of interesting after the first leg:

Athletic Bilbao (Spain) v Sevilla (Spain) 1-2
Borussia Dortmund (Germany) v LIVERPOOL 1-1
Sporting Braga (Portugal) v Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine) 1-2
Villarreal (Spain) v Sparta Prague (Czech Rep.) 2-1

2 points for each team that proceeds to the semifinals.

As it stands this way before the second leg -- with LIVERPOOL v Borussia Dortmund all to play for, a 1-1 today.

MFB would have a minimum of 6 more points (8-3) 11 points so far. (Not factoring Liverpool v Dortmund)
Burnsie +4 for 9
Thrillseeker +6 for 8
Concord +4 for 7
Gerry +2 for 7
Iowa +0 for 4
Durham +2 for 2

The table could turn on its head on 14 April.

I'll say it again. Thank you all for participating in the UEFA League.

But be ready for exact spot-ons for the semifinals. LIke Wessex's PL. The semifinals thread will be posted once we know who they are. And you have to predict 2 scorers for both the first leg and the second leg. You could theoretically get 5-6 points with two scorers even if you only manage 1 point for an outcome in either leg.

In the states today our marquee games are:

...on Fox Sports 1 HD, no shock there --

LIVERPOOL v Borussia Dortmund

...on Fox Sports 2 HD (does one even need to add the letters "HD" anymore?) --

Sevilla FC v Athletic Club de Bilbao

....

Every year I have to remind myself what BVB stands for. As a kind of German speaker I have a notion, but it still escapes me at moments like this... It's Ballspiel-Verein Borussia which loosely translates to "Ball-club (United-ish) of Borussia," the word Dortmund not part of the BVB.

In Germany youth days I was a fan of Schalke 04, or as we called em "Nul-Vier." 0-4 ... "Nil-four."

....

No tie-breaker. You get 2 points for each team that advances. No one is eliminated right up to the final. If needed, the final -- with many "exotic picks," as one says in the US, will include fouls, yellow cards, 2 scorers (naturally) ...

I'll do my best to make this league as fun as possible right to the final. Where no one is gone and dusted

The next table: each one correct was worth 2 points in the quarterfinals:

1. MFB_CUFC ............ (3-1) .......... (8-4) ..... (11 pts)
2. burnsieespana ....... (2-2) .......... (7-5) ..... (9)
3. thrillseeker ............. (3-1) ......... (5-7) ...... (8)
4. gerry_us ................ (1-3) .......... (6-6) ..... (7)
5. concordman .......... (2-2) .......... (5-7) ..... (7)
6. Barside/Iowa ......... (1-3) .......... (5-7) ..... (6)
7. durham_exile ......... (2-2) ......... (2-10) .... (4)

Semifinals will be spot-ons (3 exact & 1 for the outcome)--both legs, not who will advance--and 2 goal scorers (1 point for each goal--both legs, two scorers each tie). I'll make this clearer once the semifinals of the Europa League are announced, once we know who plays who.)

No need to post first. No tie-breaker yet except for how the table looks.

I'll search up who the top 4 scorers are of each team in the semis after this weekend. Don't make your predictions until then.
