How does a 0-0 work in terms of predicting time of first goal? Do you just say 0 minutes and get 10 points? Asking for a friend.

Tables after France v Denmark (0-0, 0-0, n/a, 1 yc, 0 rc - total points = 20)
Tables after Australia v Peru (0-1, 0-2, 18th minute, 6 yc, 0 rc - total points = 25)

My hunch that France and Denmark wouldn't break to much sweat in trying to win gives me the first full house played with my joker.

If points are level in the table then the first tiebreak is based on number of points gained by correct predictions, spare a though for Petee, he's level on points with Simster for an automatic slot but loses the tiebreak 36-34. He's also level with the third and fourth highest lucky losers with jessiejames and Lindfield23 but loses the tiebreak on that one 57-35-34 respectively.

I have certain played this game the Derby way, great start, right there half way through but mid table mediocrity at the end

You were in the hunt for ages, mind you still plenty of points to play for.
