I couldn't create my fantasy squad unfortunately. It came to my mind very late. I tried to do it right away after that but UEFA website was very slow in the last 15 minutes. No matter how many times I tried it didn't open. It is really annoying for me to be honest while trying not to miss the deadline of this kind of things. But there is nothing to do as it is my fault. 

[Woodie]

Jeez I feel robbed!!
That Scotland goal did some damage to my fantasy team and I blame it on wasteful Sane who allowed the Scott's to get the ball which lead to a free kick and have Rudiger score for them $#@& !
And looking at some of the teams in the pool, looks like most dodged the bullet thanks to early subs to protect & guarantee maximum player points for them, feel jealous tbh..

All in all, great game Germany let's see you do this in matchday 2

[cryptofrka]

Good first game - Havertz on 9 points and Wirtz as my captain on 20. It will be difficult to remove him from captain now, but I might risk it with Lukaku.
Mittelstadt conceded that goal unfortunately, but I have defenders to spare so he's getting replaced.

I doubt many people have Kai, so a nice start for me and I hope that their differentiators won't have good games.

Every single popular fantasy game crashes in the last hour before the deadline, especially if there are team line ups.

What should I say then? I had 2 German defenders and Gundogan. He was taking the penalty that got overruled and then the one that was awarded he skipped since he almost lost his foot. These things happen, next time someone else will be hit.

I can't believe I almost transferred Rudiger in my team. He's already done some serious damage to teams already

I brought in Kai Havertz and Mittlesadt at the last minute, and I captained Mittlesadt over Kai Havertz since I expected Germany to keep a clean sheet; now I'm waiting to see how Lukaku and Mbappe perform before deciding on my final captain option.

That goal gave me my first Euro bet green slip- he's a hero 

[buwaytress]

Cryptofrka did exactly as my kid with Wirtz and Kai. I opted to leace the entire German amd French oit of my side in my last ditch Fantasy pick.

Looks like I will get a rough round, but how else can I surprise you all, eh?

Shouldn't we appoint a new captain before he plays? That is, if my captain scored 5 points (+5) and I decided to give the captain's armband to Lukaku, then the captain will be changed only if the mentioned player has not played yet.

You're right, I just revisited the rules now, tried to switch from Mittlesadt to Kai Havertz and it didn't work. What's the fitness status of Mbappe and Lukaku? I'm switching to either one of them.

What happens if I sub off my current captain to someone on the bench?

I think it would be better if you appointed your backup goalkeeper as captain (better for us, I mean).

Playing it safe not a bad idea but after trying  this approach in the EPL this proved to be a bad idea after seeing  the best teams concede and not bank the clean sheet  

But in a scenario this works out, going for keepers as Captain most likely points they might score is 4-16points provided no penalty saves or assist from goalie, and btw not enough to catch players that have captains scoring 20+ pts.

Anyway time to catch some Spanish action, expecting goal's in this fixture.

Rodri Ball recovery is really poor; I expected it, but I didn't see him creating a penalty and receiving a yellow card in the same game; I never wanted him in the first place, but Trofo and Harkorede came up with all kinds of statistics to persuade me otherwise.

There are no changes after the first game of each match day? . I'm trying to transfer my captaincy to Dirmarco, who is yet to play, but it's not working. The rules said differently... Tired

EURO 2024 FANTASY POOL is now officially closed

There is 18 of us, that means 18 * 1.5 = 27 mBTC
One tx is yet to be confirmed and one player still has to pay. He promised it will be on 17th latest.

I talked with icopress and we will have 18mBTC sponsorship which is those 1200$ that were mentioned before.

That means we should have 45 mBTC for rewards which will be split in following way. Of course if something unexpected happens it will get adjusted.
1 - 21 mBTC - fees are paid from this reward
2 - 12 mBTC
3 - 8 mBTC
4 - 4 mBTC

By the way seems like nobody reads the OP or my initial post. Percentages mentioned there come to 110% so I had to adjust it a bit

Are we allowed to make suggestions or this is the final prize allocation (%) if yes- no worries, if No- I can make my own suggestions.

*Well, I'm yet to turn on the TV and Dirmarco clean sheet is already gone. Lol Italy

Make a suggestion but we are probably keeping it like this since it was announced at the begging. I wanted to award first place with decent amount and then dish out several nice prizes.

I am interested to hear your suggestion, maybe it is that good that we implemnet it but as I said probably for some future pools since I don't like changing stuff once it starts.

[darxiaomi]

How many clean sheets destroyed by that mistake of Italy?

Not a good start for Italy at all, but is better to have this error in early stage than in playoff.

I want to make a sub between today and the other days related to this "matchday" but the system keeps busy, i hope i can do before the tomorrows game starts to prove the feature.

It would have been Raya, but so far only Unai Simon has a clean sheet, Rudiger messed up Neuer's start.

Italy finished the group stages of the last European competition without conceding any goal, they concede a goal in the first minute of this competition, they were lucky they escaped defeat.

[Harkorede]

Not only did Croatia ruined my perfect streak in the last man standing with their failure to find the back of the next, they also cost me a couple of betslip, I don't know why I was expecting plethora of Corner kicks here, Croatia couldn't even earn single kick from the side flag  , and alternatively BTTS would have been my go to as the back up choice, so it was bound to be a loss loss scenario for me!

There's literally no need if the official decision has been taken and my suggestions isn't going to change anything so i will let it pass. I'm OKay with the decision

Dirmarco was my possible final captain option as Italy was the only side I thought would keep a clean sheet in this round; subbed him and Rodri off my squad already. Crazy round for me
