It's confusing because they list/play the quarter finals in the wrong order but Poland GB will very likely be the final here. rafalgorka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafalgorka 1,394 Posted June 26, 2023 #14 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Official app is showing POL vs CZE semi now. It showed POL vs GBR an hour ago though 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,612 Posted June 26, 2023 #15 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Well, the QF ended like four hours ago and the TVP Sport commentators immediately said Czech Republic plays Poland in SF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogreman 209 Posted June 26, 2023 #16 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I feel like I should clear this up a bit. The format of any of these 12 team rugby sevens tournaments after the pool stage is as follows. Quarter-final 1- Winner pool A vs second best third placed team. Quarter-final 2- Winner pool B vs best third place team. Quarter-final 3- Winner pool C vs second pool A. Quarter-final 4- Second pool B vs second pool C. The confusing bit is that the semifinals are qf1 vs qf4 and qf2 vs qf3. rafalgorka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in all 7 of the HSBC events, the bracket structure was Quarterfinal 1: Winner pool B vs best third place team Quarterfinal 2: Winner pool C vs second pool A Quarterfinal 3: Second pool B vs second pool C Quarterfinal 4: Winner pool A vs second best third placed team And then semi finals would be winners of QF1 v QF2 and QF3 v QF4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly sure that is just the order they play them in and their actually called qf 1234 as I listed them above. I might be wrong though. Either way this doesn't make any difference. These are the same brackets just listed differently. My original point wasn't about the order their listed/played in just trying to clean up the confusion on who plays who.
