If you predict a clean sheet just name the player most likely to score a goal like i did. Must NOT come from the same team

Change ya name to FirenzeLearning, tired of schooling you.

Azmoun own goal?

According to the rule, you are not allowed to name two scorer from the same team. You may therefore name a player from opponent even if you predict them not to win.

I feel like this is the only one I will get right

We will see.

~~ Standings after day 2 ~~

1. RINCON: 15 pts /+15

3. PEDRAM: 11 pts /+11
4. WARRIOR: 8 pts /+8
5. S: 3 pts /+3
6. FIRENZE: 0 pts /+0

Harry Kane screwed me every single time in this game over 4 editions

Pedram had both goal scorers but mentioned 5 players, so a good compromise was reached at +3. If such mistake happen again i will take into account the first 2 players mentioned.

It is highly recommended to verify your scores
