GOALS OF THE GAME
The player must enter the game through the reference website after registering.
The goals of the game in order are:
_ predict and guess correctly the exact order of the teams in each group in the first stage of the competition
_ predict and guess correctly the final standings of the competition.
SPIRIT OF THE GAME
With skill, speed, intuition, a good knowledge of the competition and a bit of luck you can succeed in guessing everything that is required, thereby beating all your opponents. This game is different from many other games, because it doesn't force the player to make a prediction each individual matchday of the competition but only in two different moments that correspond with the two stages of the competition: 1) first group stage 2) second knockout phase.
It isn't a hard game but it is very different from many other games and for this reason it is important to understand all the rules of the game before starting to play.
NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS
The game is structured so that there aren't any limits to the number of participants in the competition, in fact every registered player can compete against all other registered players. But to make the game more interesting and engaging all registered players are given the possibility to create their own personal league with a limited number of players, where only the invited guests from the league creator can take part.
RULES OF THE GAME
The player must enter the game through the reference website after registering.
The game is divided up into two distinct stages.
"First group stage"
The player must predict the order of the teams(from first to fourth) of each group and he must predict the final standings at the end of the group stage. After this the player must predict his/her WILD CARD GROUP. A WILD CARD GROUP is group that the player expects that the final standings will match with the predicted standings. A bonus score will be added to the player's point total if the player guesses correctly the exact standings of the wild card group.
To do this the player must first of all be in the area of a competition with a first group stage and a second knockout phase(following this path from the home page Play-->Champions League or Europa League or European Football Championship or World Cup) and then he must click on the appropriate buttons to check the chosen teams. After this he must click on the appropriate button to check the chosen wild card group.
When the selections are complete the player must click on the "Confirm" button to confirm his/her selections.
“Second knockout phase"
The player must predict the order of the teams(from first to fourth) and he must predict the final standings at the end of the competition. After this the player must predict the WILD CARD TEAM. The WILD CARD TEAM is the team which is expected to place exactly in the selected ranking. A bonus score will be added to the player's point total if the player guesses correctly the exact ranking of the wild card team.
To do this, still in the chosen area of a competition with a first group stage and a second knockout phase, the player must click on the appropriate option menu to check the chosen teams. After this he must click on the appropriate option menu to check the chosen team.
When the selections are complete the player must click on the "Confirm" button to confirm his/her selections.

It is possible to take part in the "second knockout phase" up until 1 minute before the start of the first match of the knockout phase.

8 extra points(bonus) for the 1st ranked team guessed correctly
6 extra points(bonus) for the 2nd ranked team(runner-up) guessed correctly
4 extra points(bonus) for the 3rd ranked team(third-placed) guessed correctly
2 extra points(bonus) for the 4th ranked team(fourth-placed) guessed correctly
For the first 2 matchdays(only if the competition provides a total of 3 matchdays) or for the first 5 matchdays(only if the competition provides a total of 6 matchdays) of the "first group stage", the points acquired from every group will be added to the player's point total after each matchday.
For the 3rd and last matchday(only if the competition provides a total of 3 matchdays) or for the 6th and last matchday(only if the competition provides a total of 6 matchdays) of the "first group stage", the points acquired from the predicted final standings of every group will be multiplied by 2 and added to the player's point total. 192 extra points(bonus) will be added to the player's point total if the wild card group is guessed correctly at the end of the "first group stage" of the competition.
