Make your picks, beat the deadline, and let the table do the talking. The rules below are the source of truth for scoring and tie breaks.

Make picks

Group stage scoring

The original rules stay untouched

All 72 group matches keep the same scoring they have always used.

Exact score

3 pts

Predict the exact final score entered for the match.

Correct outcome

1 pt

Predict the right winner, or correctly predict a draw, without the exact score.

Wrong outcome

0 pts

No points if the match result goes a different way.

Knockout scoring

Components stack up to 5 points

Partial accuracy now matters. Each matching component earns one point, and an exact score earns all four components plus a bonus.

Correct outcome

+1

Correct winner, or correctly predicting a draw.

Home-team goals

+1

The predicted home score matches exactly.

Away-team goals

+1

The predicted away score matches exactly.

Goal difference

+1

The signed margin matches, so the winning side matters.

Exact-score bonus

+1

An exact pick earns every component plus this bonus: 5 total.

Who can play

The quiniela is open to every Tangering employee. Each employee can bring up to 2 additional players from family and friends.

Picks lock 5 minutes before kickoff

You can create or edit a pick while the match is open. Five minutes before kickoff, that match locks automatically and changes are rejected by the database.

Times show in your local timezone

Kickoffs are stored as absolute timestamps. The app displays them in each viewer's browser timezone, so people in Mexico, Colombia, the US, Argentina, and Uruguay see the same deadline translated locally.

Scores must be realistic whole numbers

Every prediction must use whole numbers from 0 to 30. Blank, decimal, negative, or huge scores cannot be saved.

Locked picks become visible

After a match locks, everyone can see the submitted picks for that match. Before the deadline, only your own pick is visible.

Results are official once entered

The leaderboard updates from the match result entered in Supabase. Knockout scores include extra time, but penalty-shootout goals never count.

Knockout note

Knockout matches use the official score after extra time. Penalty-shootout goals are excluded. Goal difference is signed: a two-goal home win does not match a two-goal away win.
