The rules will be the same as for the 5th edition.

12 teams will qualify for the finals: the top 4 will advance directly to the quarter-finals and the teams ranked between 5 and 12 will play off in the 1/8 finals

For the first phase, the rankings will be finalised at the end of the 4th week (3 January) and will be published on Saturday 4 January. By that date, to qualify, you must not have played (or even scheduled more than 4 matches)
Please note that following certain reports, unannounced checks will be carried out during the 1st phase and teams that infringe the general rules of the federations may lose matches (or even be excluded from the competition in the event of a repeat offence), including during the 1st phase, if they infringe the 2 essential rules: a ban on progressing players and a ban on selecting more than 5 players from the same association, including sister associations
Make sure you keep a close eye on your selection.

Good luck to all of you as you attempt to follow in the footsteps of Brazil, who beat South Africa on penalties in the final of the 5th edition.

I'd like to take advantage of the launch of the 6th edition to recap the winners of the first 5 editions

1 (season 133)
FINLAND (Guilain) - MALI (Tank LA) 3-0

2 (season 134)
VIET NAM (Tomasm) - SOUTH AFRICA (Baay-faal) 1-0

3 (season 135)
KAZAKHSTAN (Sun's) - BRAZIL (Jamsss) 2-1

4 (season 136)
ENGLAND (Skyz) - JAPAN (Myforsans) 3-0

5 (season 137)
BRAZIL (Jamsss) - SOUTH AFRICA (Ablaye) 0-0 (4-3 on penalties)

Brazil's succession is open for the 6th edition!

As announced, spot checks are sometimes carried out on certain matches in the first phase
This was a targeted check following a complaint from an opponent,
we checked the Indian team
India
They fielded 8 players from the CP agreement and 6 players from the RTG agreement
It's true that it's not very reasonable to select 34 players!
As a result, India will be dropped from the final ranking and the Macau, Italy and Slovakia federations will pick up 3 points with a 1-0 victory

myforsans: Comme annoncé des contrôles ponctuels sont parfois effectués sur certains matchs de la première phase
Là il s'agit d'un contrôle ciblé suite à une plainte d'un adversaire,
nous avons contrôlé l'équipe indienne
India
Elle aligne 8 joueurs issus de l'entente CP et 6 joueurs issus de l'entente RTG
Il est vrai que ce n'est pas très raisonnable de sélectionner 34 joueurs !
En conséquence, l'Inde sera retirée du classement final et les fédération

I didn't know which one to choose ^^
On a more serious note, I accept the penalty and I'll comply with it as soon as the next match is over, given that the call-ups have already been made

OK, noted.
But if you've already got a match scheduled, all you have to do to comply now is ask the clubs of certain CP and RTG players to refuse their selection.

Ronol: Je savait pas lequel choisir ^^
Plus sérieusement, j’accepte la sanction et je me mettrais en conformité dès que le prochain match est passé vu que les convocations sont déjà fait

And to think you taught me all about New Zealand 😁😁😁

Rankings after 20 days of competition
Reminder: to be ranked, you must not have played or even scheduled more than 4 matches by 3 January

The top 4 qualify for the quarter-finals
The next 8 (5 to 12) qualify for a play-off in the 1/8 finals
The following players will be placed on the waiting list if a qualified player withdraws

Provisionally, this would give
1/4 finalists
1 Morocco 9 pts 10-0
2 Congo 9 pts 9-0
3 Estonia 9 pts 6-1
4 South Africa 7 pts 10-1

1/8 finalists
5 Rwanda 7 pts 5-1
6 Ghana 6 pts 9-1
7 Montenegro 6 pts 7-1
ex Iraq 6 pts 7-1
ex Mexico 6 pts 7-1
10 Brazil 6 pts 6-0
11 Malta 6 pts 6-1
12 Finland 6 pts 5-0

Waiting list
13 Slovakia 6 pts 4-0
14 France 6 pts 3-0
ex Croatia 6 pts 3-0
ex Australia 6 pts 3-0
17 New Zealand 6 pts 4-2
18 Norway 6 pts 2-0

Is the draw tonight?

1st time I'm in the 18, long live New Zealand!

Be patient, the standings depend on goal average.
It will be published soon :)

myforsans: Patience, le classement dépend du goal average.
Il va bientôt être publié :)

No but I'm training for the day it happens lol

Here are the published rankings for the first phase of the Federations League
Only the federations that have not played or scheduled more than 4 matches have been included.
Those who played only 3 matches are included in the rankings.

The fact that matches were lost by penalty for failure to comply with the rules was also taken into account. Also taken into account is the fact that when there is a forfeit, the VF programme takes a score of 3-0 but does not award the 3 pts. This has been corrected in the rankings below.

The 2nd phase is about to begin
The 12 qualified teams must come here to confirm their acceptance of the rules and their wish to take part in the 2nd phase. The 6 federations on the waiting list must also do so if they wish to take the place of one of the federations from 1 to 12 that does not wish to take part in the second phase.

You have until Tuesday evening to indicate your acceptance so that I can publish the final table on Wednesday and Morten can schedule the 1/8 finals for Monday 13 January
So between now and Wednesday, don't organise any friendly matches, otherwise you won't be able to appear in the final draw

As things stand, the qualifiers are, subject to acceptance,

Ranked from 1 to 4 (directly qualified for the quarter-finals)
1 Norway 12 pts 10-0
2 Slovakia 12 pts 9-0
3 France 12 pts 8-2
4 South Africa 10 pts 12-1

Ranked 5 to 12 (qualified for the 1/8 play-off)
5 Iraq 10 pts 8-1
6 Congo 10 pts 7-1
7 Paraguay 9 pts 10-0
8 Finland 9 pts 8-0
9 Viet Nam 9 pts 6-0
10 England 9 pts 9-5
11 Croatia 9 pts 4-0
12 Lithuania 8 pts 6-0

Ranked 13 to 18 (qualified in case of withdrawal)
13 Montenegro 7 pts 8-4
14 Brazil 7 pts 7-2
ex Iceland 7 pts 7-2
16 South Korea 7 pts 4-0
ex Turkey 7 pts 4-0
18 Indonesia 7 pts 5-6

myforsans: Voici la publication du classement de la première phase de la Ligue des Fédérations
Seuls ont été retenus les fédérations n'ayant pas joué ou programmé plus de 4 matchs.
Celles qui n' ont fait que 3 matchs figurent au classement.

Par ailleurs a été pris en compte le fait que des matchs ont été perdus par pénalité pour non-respect du règlement. Est également pris en compte le fait que quand il y a un forfait le programme de VF retient un score de 3-0 mais n'attribue pas les 3 pt

I accept, long live Norway and long live Pieu, the best president who said that if I won he would give me a Nancy scarf

Hello,

Hi, I accept the settlement with Indonesia!

Hey, I accept the rules (Montenegro)

Erratum due to an incorrect copy and paste :)

ex Iceland 7 pts 7-2
15 Montenegro 7 pts 8-4
16 South Korea 7 pts 4-0
ex Turkey 7 pts 4-0
18 Indonesia 7 pts 5-6

How are you?
I accept the rules for Finland. 🇫🇮

Hi, I accept the settlement with Indonesia!

Just in case, as my coach has accepted the rules for Paraguay, I also accept them as President of Paraguay.

Agreed, but it's a shame it stopped on the day of my 4th federation match for South Korea

Hi everyone, also accepted for Brazil as coach

Hi, there,
I accept the settlement with France

Hi, I accept with Slovakia

In the event of withdrawal, payment accepted for Iceland.

The final table for the 2nd phase is published this evening.
For those who would like to take part but have not yet responded, you have until 8pm to come forward.
Tomorrow, the 12 federations selected will receive confirmation of their qualification and will be invited to submit their list of 22 players in accordance with the rules.

In view of the confirmations received, the 12 qualifiers for the 2nd phase are :

Directly qualified for the quarter-finals
1 Norway - 2 Slovakia - 3 France - 4 South Africa
Qualified for the 1/8-final play-offs
5 Iraq - 6 Congo - 7 Paraguay - 8 Finland - 9 England - 10 Brazil - 11 Iceland - 12 Montenegro

Based on these rankings, the final draw for the competition is as follows
Play-off 1: Iraq - Montenegro
Play-off 2: Congo - Iceland
Play-off 3: Paraguay-Brazil
Play-off 4: Finland-England

quarter-finals
Norway v. Winner play-off 4
South Africa v Winner Play-off 1
France v. Winner Play-off 2
Slovakia v. Winner Play-off 3

Reminder of the main rules for the 2nd phase

The matches are scheduled manually by Morten, so it is imperative that you call up your players manually when the match is set up, otherwise they will not turn up and you will lose the match by forfeit.
Federations used to the 2nd phase of this competition know the process.
So don't get distracted if you're new to the competition.
The 1/8 finals will take place next Monday. The 4 qualifiers for the quarter-finals have the right to play a friendly match until Tuesday at the latest, but not afterwards

To take part in the second phase, you must submit a list of 22 players (maximum), which must remain unchanged until the end of the competition (for this reason, it is recommended but not compulsory to select at least two goalkeepers).
Deadline for submitting lists: Saturday 12 noon.
To make it easier to check the selections, you must specify the distribution of the selected players by agreement when you submit your list (for those who are not used to this, please refer to the post from the previous edition: #forum?topic=166473
Reminder: the presence of a single non-selectable player at a match (even if he did not come into the game) results in the loss of the match on the green carpet.

Good luck to all 12 participants.

Hi everyone,
I can't make the selection for Brazil because they're telling me that the players have already been called up, whereas neither I nor my chairman have validated the list.
So we can't take any players out of the squad to change it.

Is there a solution?

Thank you in advance for your reply

Nims57: Salut a tous,
Je ne peux pas faire la sélection pour le Brésil car ils me disent que les joueurs sont déjà convoqués, alors que ni moi ni mon président n'avons valider de liste.
Nous ne pouvons donc retirer aucun joueur de la sélection pour la modifier.

Y a t'il une solution?

Merci d'avance pour vos réponse

Hi coach,
I think you can contact the managers of the players concerned individually and ask them to refuse their player's call-up, because there's a bug you'd like to correct.
I think they'll do it, and that's for the best, given that time is running out. Brazil are the reigning champions and must defend their title, otherwise South Africa will have it easy this time 😅

Thanks for your reply 😀 It's a solution, and I think it's the only thing left to do.

Nims57: Merci pour ta réponse 😀 effectivement c'est une solution je pense d'ailleurs que c'est la seule chose qu'il reste à faire.

Yes, that's better. That's what I often do when there's a mistake in a call-up. And with the cooperation of the manager of the player concerned, the problem is quickly resolved...

The managers in question still need to be active 😅 but thanks again for the advice, it can help out in an emergency 😉

Nims57: Encore faut-il que les managers en question soient actifs 😅 mais merci encore du conseil ça peut dépanner en urgence 😉

😀 If these are inactive clubs, you can ask an admin for help.
Hang in there 👍
