My team Crystal Palace played Alemannia Aachen in the group stage.
Then in he final stage I have to play Alemannia Aachen again..
Group stage
1.Alemannia Aachen
2.Crystal Palace
3.Häcken
4.Baden
Final group
Crystal Palace v Alemannia Aachen
I wouldn’t call it a bug but a non-desirable outcome of the algorithm used to generated the international cup finals matches. The only restrictions currently in place are:
- first placed teams must play against second placed teams in the round of 16
- teams are split in two pots, one with the “stronger” ones and another with the “weakers”…matches must consist of a team from each pot
- same country teams should not face each other unless inevitable
The rule you would like included (and one that makes a lot of sense by the way) is that teams from the same group should not face each other in the round of 16.
Cheers
Alll the teams are facing diffirent opponents in the final stage.
I am so “unlucky” to draw against an opponent I played already in group stage?
Well i guess the outcome is already decided then, since we played eachother before.. :)
