ReplyDeleteThanks to Romanian brothers!
I watched the match on national broadcast (because of huge interest in Serbia) and was so nervous whole match. I think this match was more important to me than to you guys :)
Hello Edgar!
ReplyDeleteFor 2010 WC seeding are Performance points calculated for latest 2 World Cups (2006, 2002) or 3 (+1998)?
If a country did not participate in the Final does she receive 0 points for that part of Performance column?
Thanks.
I think for the latest 3 because of 0.3 and 0.7 ending?
ReplyDeleteLatest 2 but with 1:2 ratio I suppose...
ReplyDeleteYes Osiris, you are right. The last two with a 2:1 ratio.
