How the pool works
1
Pick group winners
For each of the 12 groups, predict who finishes 1st and 2nd. Those teams advance into your knockout bracket.
2
Fill the bracket
Round of 32, Round of 16, Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals, and the Final. Pick every winner. Later rounds are worth more.
3
Crown your champion
Call the World Cup winner, predict the Golden Boot, and use the total-goals tiebreaker to edge ahead of the pack.
