Question

Collect information about a game played on Single League basis. Also try to understand the rules to decide the winner and discuss it without your teacher.

Answer 1

In a single league, each team plays every other team once. For four teams, the fixture above provides six matches.

• Award 2 points for a win, 1 point to each team for a draw, and 0 points for a loss, as in the chapter’s general scoring example.
• Add each team’s points after all its matches. The team with the highest points total is the winner.
• If two or more teams tie, use the tie-breaking rules announced before the tournament, such as the relevant football competition regulations. These may include goal difference or goals scored, as specified by the organisers.
