rumors say that there'll be 12 groups consisting of 4 each , so it'll be something like archery with round of 24 , maybe the best 4 teams in group stage will get a bye into R16 :d

i'm just kidding , if they will apply the 12 group format , we'll have the standard 2 teams qualifying from each group p.s 8 best 3rd ranked teams in Group stage to qualify to R32 , anyway the winning team will play 2 extra matches instead of 1

The Italian Super Cup :ITA becomes four teams. :(

 

This is what emerged in the assembly of Lega Serie A, which formalized the new format of the competition starting from 2024.

The four team will be: 1st & 2nd of Serie A and the finalists of Italy Cup (or 3rd and 4th of serie A if one or both top 2 will be also in final of Italy Cup)

 

The Lega Serie A has assigned four of the next six editions to Saudi Arabia (2024, 2025, 2028 and 2029), while the venues for the 2026 and 2027 editions will have to be established.

 

The CEO of Serie A league said:

Quote

We have decided to accept Arabia's offer to host four editions of the Super Cup in six years starting from 2024. The next two editions will take place in Saudi Arabia, then there will be a two-year stop in which it will be possible to play elsewhere as well and then he will return to Arabia for another two years. The next edition will have a four-team format and there will also be a friendly, an instrument chosen to try to help the quality of Saudi football. But the choice of the Final Four format is not definitive: it will also be possible to go back based on the commitments of the clubs" :what:

Need also the the hymn at this absurd decision :toast:

Milan Škriniar (Inter Milan) and Dominika Škorvánková (Montpellier HSC) are the :SVK players of the Year 2022

 

Škriniar won the trophy for the 4th consecutive year, but this time it was apparently his closest win so far, only 18 points ahead of "Stanley" Lobotka from Napoli

    • Honestly, it’s not very clear what is happening in Italy — anything could happen. There is extremely high turnout, and no pollster, politician, or newspaper had predicted it; now they’re all there throwing out data. No one has any idea why people voted, also because it was very technical and almost empty polling stations were expected. It will be interesting to understand whether this is a protest vote against the government or a protest vote against the judiciary.

    • Congrats Diggins, well deserved! 👏   Too bad she fell on the last lap in the last race (as well as Karlsson also did x2).   For the future I would really like them to remove the bonus sprint points suring the race that almost makes more importance to the overall standings than the positions over the finish line. And get back to the same point system as the other FIS events. 30 gets points instead on 50, and 100-80-60... instead of this system. in this case Diggins deserves it and Sweden who of different reasons have missed pets of the season On purpose or not, does not deserve it. But it as it is now it may take 20 wins to catch up for one missed race (if the opponent is 2nd in each). Dahlqvist won the sprint cup without any individual wins (3rd overall) is one example of that.    There must be room to miss a race of any reason. If not, it Will not make people race more events, instead it might make skoters who already missed one weekend feel they are already too far behind so they light as well take less priority on the rest of the World cup season. Also skiiers who in Norway for example would be good enough for a top3 in the overall might not even be selected for many races due to the internal competition. Same for a skiier like Ebba Andersson who most likely would not qualify if she would be selected to go a sprint race. But she would still get a few points probably for rk 31-50, but because she would not make it in to the Swedish sprint team she Will lose a lot even compared to those who fail the sprint qualifications. Frida Karlsson another example, she would also probably have qualified most of the times but is most often not good enough to make the team. With more award to winning and making podiums and also less athletes scoring that would make it better I think. The scoring system in biathlon got some critics when they decided you have to count all races, but they at least increased the value of top positions meaning you could faster catch up a bad race/missed race, by a few podiums.
