MANDY + RYAN SET THE KNOCKOUT PACE
So Euro 2016 reaches the Round of 16 and that means - alongside our overall competition - Euro 2016 Predictor's Knockout Stage League is now under way. Day one sees two teams get one exact score (5 points), two correct results by the wrong margin (2 points each) and correctly predict both of the 'after extra time + penalties' winners (2 points each). 13 points is the top score of the day, and sees Mandy White and Ryan Keenan set the early pace for the Knockout League. Yes, that name Keenan again - while Brendan is a mere 17th in the Knockout League, Ryan tops it.

TRE LEONI CONTINUE TO CLIMB
WIth a phenomenal day on the last day of the Group Stage, Tre Leoni vaulted 25 places to 5th spot. Seems it was no fluke and Roisin Guargena has suddenly hit top form - 11 more points today and suddenly Leoni are Notts Co USA's nearest challengers in 2nd. With the teams that were 2nd and 3rd dropping, Notts' lead at the top is increased by yet another point... they are now 17 clear. |
CROATIA 0 PORTUGAL 0 - portugal win in extra time
Four teams collected the maximum possible 7 points, with a further four correctly predicting the score but expecting Croatia to subsequently make it through. |
WALES 1 NORTHERN IRELAND 0
12 teams picked up maximum points in this one - guess what, Notts Co USA make it 13 correct scores now, as they maintain an amazing record of correctly predicting one match in three. |
SWITZERLAND 1 POLAND 1 - poland win on penalties
15 teams predicted 1-1, with eight of them also predicting Poland would qualify and picking up the maximum 7 points. Tre Leoni were one, carrying on from where they left off after an incredible day on the last day of the Group Stage. |
