Thanjk you.

So, does the score after 90 minutes or 120 count for this?
The bookies pay out on 90, not 120.
Eeek. I think I'll probably award 10 points to anyone who got the 1-1 after 90 mins, and 3 to anyone who had a loss after extra time, if that sounds fair?
I could not dig, I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
What tale shall serve me here among
Mine angry and defrauded young?

In my opinion it should always be 90 minutes that counts but I'm happy to go with the consensus.
As for awarding points for a loss after extra time, then the only way that would be remotely fair is if in one's prediction they specifically mentioned extra time. A simple Chelsea 3 - 2 Liverpool would not suffice. Whereas 3-2 after extra time would.

I've awarded 10 points to anyone who said 1-1 after 90 minutes, regardless of comments about penalties or extra time. That's been quite easy to judge, as by definition, anyone who said anything about extra time was predicting 1-1 as that's the only score that could have taken us there. And everyone pretty much said we'd win in extra time or penalties so there's no discrepancy there.
I awarded 3 points for one prediction of 0-0 (a draw and would have meant we lost so correct overall outcome). I however did not award points for 2-2 or 3-3, as although still a draw, those would have meant we went through.
I think that's about right.
