1How it works

Pick 8 unique teams
Before the tournament starts (Jun 11 06:00 UTC), choose any 8 of the 48 qualified national teams to be your roster.
One team per matchday
Each of 8 matchdays you designate ONE team from your roster to ride. That team must WIN their match.
Draws and losses eliminate
Any result other than a win for your designated team and you're OUT. Even group stage draws kill your run.
No team reuse
Once a team is used, that slot is gone. Save your strongest teams for the knockouts, but if they get knocked out of the tournament, the slot is dead.
AI-powered insights
Every matchday we send you the win probability, expected goals, and confidence band for your designated team's match. Pro+ unlocks deeper analysis.
Last survivor wins
If you're still alive after the Jul 19 final, you win the prize. Multiple survivors? Prize splits.
