Title: one rule we need to clear up Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Thursday, November 24, 2005, 23:26:59 if teams are level on points is it goal difference that counts or the result when the teams played each other?

Title: one rule we need to clear up Post by: STFC Village on Thursday, November 24, 2005, 23:30:08 Can't really rely on goal difference, as some games were abandoned, making scoreline irrelevant
Title: one rule we need to clear up Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Thursday, November 24, 2005, 23:33:06 personally i feel if 2 teams are tied it should be down to how there game went

Mexico, England and Norway may have a three way tie, and each has beaten one of them and lost to one of them - so goal difference will count. Title: one rule we need to clear up Post by: STFC Village on Saturday, November 26, 2005, 00:20:11 Right, it's finished a 3 way tie in Group 2 between Mexico, England and Norway! Here are the results from the game's against each other...
Norway beat Mexico (20-11) Mexico beat England (25-23) England beat Norway (30-12) So, all teams have won one each against each other. Which then leads me to goal difference.... England +35 Mexico -6 Norway -6 That would say to me that England are through, but a play-off would be needed between Mexico and Norway, to determine who goes through, imho. Unless you want to take the result of the match between the two, but i don't think Mex would be too happy with that rule :D Title: one rule we need to clear up Post by: STFC Village on Saturday, November 26, 2005, 00:25:32 Quote from: "mexico red" personally i feel if 2 teams are tied it should be down to how there game went Ah! :DTitle: one rule we need to clear up Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Saturday, November 26, 2005, 03:18:41 what about goal difference against spain? would mean mexico is through....

Title: one rule we need to clear up Post by: STFC Village on Saturday, November 26, 2005, 03:19:44 The figures are goal difference from all of the games

Goal difference isn't because on some occasions more/less people have voted overall.
