*** The 3rd OcUK PS3 FIFA09 Cup ***

First post updated again - some colour coding for those who have qualified for knock out stages. Well done for finishing your games those who have.
 
Have you put your ps3 into dmz? This is the problem you get when your ps3 cannot access the right ports. There is a list in the manual.
 
Loki 0 - 2 Jonny
Jonny 3 - 0 Loki

I think your team suffered from a weak front line, they were all too easy to push off the ball. Though you were giving me some scares in the second game and were unlucky not to put a few away.
 
Tables updated.

Congrats Group A for being first to finish, give yourselves a pat on the back ;)

I have started to put the qualifiers into the knock out tables for those who are interested.

Remember the deadline is this sunday!

Nah, the results are fine, the lag affected us both equally, and anyway I was delighted to get a point from you :D

Last I checked (yesterday) Eddie_Arsenal hadn't been on for 3 days so probably 4 days now. I've yet to play him too but there's no sign of him yet.

Hmm... not so good, try and get all your other games played, if he isn't going to play I will finalize your group based on just the four remaining players.

I think Jamesbcd and Gatidd might know Eddie, if so can you see if he's going to be able to play?
 
First post updated.

Games still to be played:
Topher vs Eddie_Arsenal (2nd game only)
GazD vs Eddie_Arsenal
Loki vs ps3ud0
Loki vs Manic111

As some of the Knock out fixtures are being finalised I guess I'd better post up the knock out rules:

There is to be 2 legs in the Knock out stages, 1 home and 1 away, if the aggregate score is level after the second game a third 'decider' game must be played, if the score is still level at this time then play on through extra time and penalties until a winner is decided. Away goals do not count.

As usual play your games, and post up the results, if the result is already up please quote to confirm.

Small issue - even if the aggregrate score is level if the second game isnt a draw then you cant play extra time etc within that game. I propose its just a 3rd game that goes all the way instead?

Good point, I will go with that suggestion, as it makes most sense.

so:

If aggregate scores are level at the end of the second game, play a 3rd 'decider' game.

Aww..that makes the knockout stages way more interesting tho.

but jonny's the host so ill go along.

Usually I'd agree, but this is in case there is a problem with one person hosting and therefore making it difficult to decide which was the home and which was the away game.

Simply put: it prevents any arguments.

Have to play my remaining game today if that's ok. Waited around for my opponent last night but he didn't come online

That is fine, since there are only a handfull of games left to play I will allow them to be played after the deadline.

So please arrange the following games ASAP:

Topher vs Eddie_Arsenal (2nd game only)
GazD vs Eddie_Arsenal
Loki vs ps3ud0
Loki vs Manic111
 
There are no confirmed fixtures for knockout stage B yet, Whappers you are due to play 3rd place out of group D, not group C as the table did say.
 
Whappers said:
If I'm in the house tonight then that is affirmative. If not then I'll be round at my friends house where I cannot play. I just don't know yet. You're not free at the moment are you?

Naan isn't confirmed 3rd yet, if Loki win's both his games remaining he has a chance.
