The Euro Ruff's 2012 - The Quarter Final Draw
So as we are now getting to the closing stages of the Groups of The Euro Ruff's 2012 and so we held the draw for the next round of the competition - the quarter finals! .
The top 2 teams from each group went into the hat (well it was more like a fruit bowl!) for the next round and the teams were randomly picked out to see who would face each other in the knockout phase of the tournament.
Group D are the only group still to have a couple of fixtures left to be played to see who finishes 1st and 2nd due to a few people being away. These games will be played very soon.
To cover the problem of the not having the group D teams for the draw, we put into the hat "Group D 1st Place" and "Group D 2nd Place" and once we have Group D all finished we will know who is playing who for the quarter finals.
The other problem we faced before the draw was that Iceman (Poland) has had to remove himself from the competition due to his holiday coming up and we couldn't guarantee getting all the matches played before he goes. So with him kindly giving up his 2nd spot in group A we have awarded the 2nd place in that group to Wackybar - meaning Spain are now in the quarter finals.
We held the draw this evening and it was filmed and shown live via Skype with several of the players watching keenly who they would get in the draw!
- The quarter finals are as follows -
X Bulldog (Italy) V RaingodZippo (Netherlands)
RuffianStew (Norway) V Group D 2nd Place
WackyBar (Spain) V Rossildinio (England)
Dave AVFC (Germany) V Group D 1st Place
These games can be started to be played once the final Group D matches have been completed.
I will send a private message on the forum to all the quarter finalists with the full details of when they can start to play these games and how they can be played.
For the quarter final matches we will be upping the half length from 4 mins to 5 mins and these will be 1 off matches and if it is a draw after 90 mins then extra time and penalties will be used to decide the winner of each tie. No away goals or replays will be used.
There will be a new thread started for the players to post up there results from the quarter finals.
Once all the quarter finals have been played we will have another draw to see who the semi finalists will be.
Any problems or questions that you might have don't hesitate to contact me on the forum, via twitter or over Xbox Live.
I think that is everything!
Have fun
Ruff
