mrv86 3,138 Posted July 29, 2020 #1001 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Cape Verde wins the group, and finally a group where everything will come down to the last round. Also, the team that finishes third likely to be send to the repechage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlympicIRL 5,532 Posted July 29, 2020 Author #1002 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Group F Wednesday, July 29th 2020, 17:30 (GMT +1) Hong Kong 0 vs 0 Barbados The concluding action of Day 5 includes a pair of matches from Group F. The first of those features the current top 2 from Group F, Hong Kong and Barbados. Both nations remain unbeaten with Hong Kong securing 4 points from their 2 matches and Barbados already guaranteeing themselves at least a repechage place after picking up 2 wins and a draw from their opening 3 games. Another point today will guarantee an automatic qualification spot in the Round of 16 for Barbados, while a win for Hong Kong will move them to the top of the group and secure at repechage spot at the very least. A total of 8 match judges have been assigned the task of adjudicating this match. The judges are each allocated a specialised hut which are located at various vantage points surrounding the arena where the artists will perform.

OlympicIRL 5,532 Posted July 29, 2020 Author #1004 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Group F Wednesday, July 29th 2020, 17:30 (GMT +1) Belize 0 vs 0 Angola The final match of the day is a must win one for Belize in Group F. Belize are still pointless after their first 2 rounds of matches and only a victory over Angola will give them any chance of making it into the top 3 places in this group. Angola are also in a very precarious position in this group having gained only 1 point in their opening games. It means they will need 2 wins from their final 2 matches to guarantee a qualification position. A total of 8 match judges have been assigned the task of adjudicating this match.

dcro 10,210 Posted July 29, 2020 #1005 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Funnily enough, despite still being undefeated, the only way Macedonia can progress directly is if Angola and Hong Kong play a draw (Macedonian victory over Belize is a given...). mrv86 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,210 Posted July 29, 2020 #1006 Share Posted July 29, 2020 And amazingly enough, Macedonia can make the repechage even with 4 draws from 4 matches (!), as long as Angola vs Hong Kong match does not end in a draw.
