Russia 2018 Predictions Game - Group Stage Update 3

Morning, chaps. Now that the dust has settled from the final matches in the Group Stage yesterday, it's high time to check in again with our Russia 2018 Predictions Game. Predictably, the last round of matches allowed some of the bigger teams (e.g., Spain, Argentina, Brazil) who had underperformed in the first two rounds of matches to reassert themselves in their groups. That means that the point scores have risen markedly. The two groups where most of us lost a lot of points, however, were Group F, where Germany were shockingly eliminated, and Group H, where none of us who anything about the teams.

No one has yet claimed the Red Card point, so that's still up for grabs. Three of us are gaining 8 points for Harry Kane's 5 goal tally at the top of the Golden Boot heap. So, now we enter the Round of 16, where you'll get three points for each team that goes through. You can also earn a couple of points for correctly predicting the first match to go to penalty kicks.

So here are the current standings:

1. Blue Devil - 45 points
2. Red Dragon - 40 pts
3. Man United Rules - 39 pts
4. Someone Said - 38 pts
5. Red Devil 1FCK - 37 pts
-  The Saint - 37 pts
-  Swansong - 37 pts
8. The Bee's Knees - 36 pts
9. West Ham Rising - 32 pts
10. United We Stand - 30 pts
11. Gooner71 - 27 pts
