Far too many, so I've reduced the amount of matches by half, which is about the same amount as we went with in the 2022 World Cup

Rules

3 points - for the correct score
1 point.. - for the correct result
1 point.. - for predicting either of the teams goals scored
5 extra points - if you predict the correct score with your (NAP) selection

18th June
1 Switzerland 2-1 Bosnia-Herzegovina

Mr 64, you’ve quoted me the above score, but I think I should have 2 points rather than 1 point.

Switzerland win 1 point, Bosnia 1 goal 1 point

Please could you check when you get chance mate.
