Nigeria vs South Korea

Greece vs Argentina


My picks are Uruguay, South Korea, Argentina and South Africa.

I also want a clarification of the rules here, more so we all know we are thinking about it the same than anything.
Now we have entered the last 16 what predictions are allowed and when are they decided.

In my mind you can now only pick a team to win and not draw.
Or is everyone else wanting to predict to 90 mins and include a draw, or even 90 mins for the draw plus a win predict after ET or pens.

To me it seems fairly obvious which I would go with I just want it to be clear so no one ends up putting a prediction down that doesn't match with the rules someone else has assumed.

Yes, from now on you can't call a result as a draw. Obviously, with Extra Time and Penalties a factor, no-one can ever draw a match - a winner is determined by whatever means necessary. So from now on, merely call for the overall victor of the match.
