Imragus Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Hi everyone I dont know if this is a brainfart by me, or if this really is a bug. From what I can see, I should've made it to the 1/8-finals. So if you could take a look at it, and tell me why i didn't make it, I would really appreciate it The first 3 matches: The last three matches and the final standing in the group: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rancer890 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 You must have lost to Benfica in the other game because the first tie-breaker is 'results between teams'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky Mark! Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Very interesting group stage, but I believe the sorting rules are: 1. results against other teams (FC Twente get top place for 6 points v 5 points for Arsenal / Benfica) 2. GD against other teams (Benfica has a GD of +1 against FC Twente and Arsenal, where as Arsenal has a GD of 0 - your results against Anderlecht don't count until further down the sorting rules). 3. Away Goals against other teams 4. GD against all teams Interestingly, I believe if FC Twente was clear in first place (10 or more points) then you would have grabbed 2nd place, as it would then come down to GD against all teams - either way, very unlucky to miss out!

nev147 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Yeah MM seems to have explained it well. A very unusual predicament indeed - not that that makes it any easier to swallow! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that, didn't notice that three teams were tied. But that's how they sort it IRL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lower Leagues Rule Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 If it is a Three team tie it is then made a mini-league just using results between just these teams: So the table looks like this... W-D-L Pts GD Twente 2-0-2 6 -1 Benfica 1-2-1 5 +1 Arsenal 1-2-1 5 0 Have actually seen this three times so far in FM11 posted on boards around here Big results against the terrible bottom teams over-inflate your goal difference Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
