The Fellowship of the Qatarian Pool has made their first steps in their journey. Who will win the one Pool-ring, the precious?

Today the first points can be earned. One player is convinced the conspiracy theories are true. With a stunning 5-0 Here2Win is the only one who thinks Qatar will win in their own home. CMCZ, Kevin and Redknapp all believe Ecuador will win. The other 5 players think the tournament will start with a draw.

Qatar -Ecuador
CMCZ 0-1
Alias47 0-0
Kevin 0-1
Redknapp 0-1
Dermotron 0-0
H2W79 5-0
Bruebous 1-1
Steve 1-1
Nikos 1-1

One thing is sure; at least one player will end the first day with at least 1 point. Will it be team Ecuador, team Qatar of team Draw? Stay tuned to find out!

My conspiracy theory looked good as Ecuador had a goal chopped off for nothing early on, but fell apart under the inability of Qatar to hit a shot on target. I have to wonder if Qatar wanted to spend $300bn to be embarrassed at football in front of the whole world, why didn’t they just buy Scotland?

CMCZ · Post by **CMCZ** » Sun Nov 20, 2022 6:24 pm

That might be true. Relief for Netherlands knowing 3 points against Qatar might be a certainty.

Three players get their first point while the other 6 stay behind. Can these hobbits keep up or will the advantage become bigger tomorrow?

1. Redknapp 1
1. Kevin 1
1. CMCZ 1
4. Here2Win79 0
4. Nikosgeo 0
4. Dermotron 0
4. Bruebous 0

CMCZ · Post by **CMCZ** » Sun Nov 20, 2022 6:41 pm

Tomorrow there are 3 matches, so 9 points in reach.

Senegal-Netherlands
CMCZ 1-2
Alias 1-2
Kevin 1-2
Redknapp 1-1
Derm 1-1
H2W79 0-1
Brueb 0-1
Steve 0-2
Nikos 0-2

No confidence in Senegal, but the veterans (Derm and Redknapp) think the match will end in a draw.

England - Iran
CMCZ 3-0
Alias 1-0
Kevin 2-0
Redknapp 3-0
Derm 2-1
H2W79 4-0
Brueb 2-1
Steve 2-0
Nikos 2-0

No doubts from the 9; England will win from Iran. Do we underestimate Iran or will we all get some points this match? Here2Win is the most positive one with 4 goals against the Iranians. , while Alias and Derm are the only one who think there will be only 1 goal difference.

USA-Wales
CMCZ 2-1
Alias 1-1
Kevin 1-1
Redknapp 1-2
Derm 1-0
H2W79 1-1
Brueb 0-1
Steve 2-1
Nikos 1-0

A very important battle for Wales to start with as USA and Wales are predicted to be battling for the 2nd position in this group. Redknapp and Bruebous the only one who believe in Wales. They have surprised before the recent years, will they again and will Red and Brue be right? Alias, Kevin and Here2Win think the match will end in a draw leaving Steve, Derm and CMCZ for the win for USA. A classic 3-3-3 battle which predicts a very exciting an interesting match.

Kevin · Post by **Kevin** » Mon Nov 21, 2022 9:03 pm

1-1 get in

CMCZ · Post by **CMCZ** » Mon Nov 21, 2022 9:33 pm

A long and tired day got to end for the Fellowship, altough knowing greater challenges were laying ahead. First of all there was England-Iran and if there are souls on this world who put some money at a 6-2 win for England, we congratulate them becoming very rich. All members of the Fellowship were right win the win of England, but none were right about the score.

1. Redknapp 2
1. Kevin 2
1. CMCZ 2
4. Here2Win79 1
4. Nikosgeo 1
4. Dermotron 1
4. Bruebous 1
4. Steve 1
4. Alias 1

Next to this was the match between Senegal and Netherlands, probably both teams tought it was a friendly, because they showed no passion at all. Dermotron and Redknapp tought the match would end in a draw, but they were wrong. The other 7 were right about the win. For a long time Here2Win and Bruebous tought they would walk away with their first 3 points. But then Davy Klaassen, the new nemesis of the two hobbits stole 2 points from them with a goal in the 98th minute (wtf is with all this long injury times)? Steve (as a Tottenham-fan used to stealing undeserved wins in the last minute) and Nikos walked away with the 3 points in the end.

1. Steve 4
1. Nikos 4
3. Kevin 3
3. CMCZ 3
5. Redknapp 2
5. Here2Win 2
5. Bruebous 2
5. Alias 2
9. Dermotron 1

Footage of Here2Win while Davy Klaassen scored in the 98th minute:

Last but not least was the epic battle of the probably runner-up in Poule B and it ended undecided! Wales and USA ended in 1-1 Luckily for Him2Win he took revenge and took his deserved 3 points after all, like a true Gandalf he said after the final whistle in the 129th minute (stupid long injury times) 'I come back now at the turn of the tide'. Kevin and Alias also scored 3 points, which brings us the to the first solo Ring barrier: KEVIN! Congrats, but don't forget the wise words of Andy Bernard:

1. Kevin 6
2. Here2Win 5
2. Alias 5
5. Steve 4
5. Nikos 4
6. CMCZ 3
7. Redknapp 2
7. Bruebous 2
9. Dermotron 1

CMCZ · Post by **CMCZ** » Mon Nov 21, 2022 9:52 pm

Tomorrow we start with France-Australia. All think France will win this, but who will have the right score?

France - Australia
CMCZ 3-0
Alias 3-0
Kevin 3-1
Redknapp 3-1
Dermotron 2-0
Here2Win 1-0
Bruebous 2-0
Steve 2-0
Nikosgeo 1-0

The next match is the match between Denmark and Tunisia. The most people think Denmark will win, but there is a chance to fight for the first place here as Kevin thinks the match will end in a draw. Here2Win also think this. The other 7 believe Denmark will win.

Denmark - Tunisia
CMCZ 2-1
Alias 3-2
Kevin 1-1
Redknapp 2-0
Dermotron 2-0
Here2Win 1-1
Bruebous 3-0
Steve 2-1
Nikos 1-0

The most interesting match of the day will probably be between Mexico and Poland. Mexico might have a bit better team, Poland has Lewandowski. The group is divided in the toughts of the end result. CMCZ, Alias, Here2Win and Nikos think Mexico will win. Dermotron and SteveHarle think the match will end in a draw. Kevin, Redknapp and Bruebous think Poland will win.

Mexico - Poland
CMCZ 2-1
Alias 2-0
Kevin 1-2
Red 1-2
Dermotron 1-1
Here2Win 1-0
Bruebous 1-2
Steve 1-1
Nikos 1-0

The last match is between Argentina and Saudia-Arabia; one of the strongest teams against one of the weakest teams. It's no surprise all will think Argentina will win. But will it end in 2-0 as Alias think of end in a monster score of 6-0 as Here2Win thinks?

Argentina - Saudia-Arabia
CMCZ 3-0
Alias 2-0
Kevin 4-0
Red 4-0
Dermotron 4-0
Here2Win 6-0
Bruebous 5-0
Steve 3-0
Nikos 3-0
