8 matches across three continents!

What to do
-----------

Look at the fixtures below: do you play home or away? In any case:
remember that it's single-leg, and a draw qualifies the team with the X
on its side.

*Home*
- Before Wednesday 2024-07-03, 23:59 GMT
- Pick one team from each of the two matches.

*Away*
- After Wednesday (or even sooner, if the home player has picked his
teams) and before kickoff of the first match
- Pick one of the teams not picked by your opponent (if he hasn't
picked
any team, you have free choice)
- Their opponents will represent your opponent

*ATTENTION: NEW RULE*: If the away player doesn't pick any team before
his/her deadline, the home player will be represented by the team that
achieves the best outcome out of his/her two picked teams.
If the home player doesn't pick any team before his deadline, the away
player can pick two teams (one from each match), and he/she will be
represented by the team that achieves the best outcome out of his/her
two picked teams.. If nobody picks a team, teams are assigned
randomly.)

Of course I would end against Lleo on the side of the draw with the
Brasileirao matches...
When in doubt, go Homer, I guess: Cruzeiro and Albirex Niigata

(what's up in Serie A? the bottom three are Gremio, Corinthians and Fluminense?)

Stockholm & that Liverbird-looking dragon thing (Gwangju).

Kalmar sounds like a squid but I will go with them anyway.

Sorry, Blueshirt, I wasn't able to pick!

I nearly forget myself. I only thought of it yesterday and then
realised that you hadn't picked either.

And, just to be clear: I don't say sorry because by not
picking, I may have come across as disrespectful. I do it
because by picking, I would have ensured your victory,
wherease now you only have 99% chances to reach the
semifinal...

People get busy, it happens!

Results:

1. The Doctor 0-1 Mark (Fluminense X2-Fortaleza 1)
4. Futbolmetrix 3-4 Lleo (Niigata 1-Sagan Tosu X2)
2. milivella 2-3 Blueshirt (Sirius X2-Mjällby 1)
3. Jesper Lauridsen 1-2 MH (AIK 1-Kalmar FF X2)

Who needs home field advantage anyway? Interesting semifinals, each one
pitting a UPT powerhouse against a newcomer/non-league club.

Fixtures to be announced shortly.
