Abstract: FIFA World Cup is one of the most watched sporting event in the world and its popularity continue to increase. While currently 32 teams participate in this event, starting with 2026 the number of participants will increase to 48. As a result, FIFA proposed a major format change, the groups of 4 teams will be replaced by groups of 3 teams, with the first two teams to qualify to the second round. Aaron Wan-Bissaka will play at Selhurst Park for the first time since his summer move from Palace to United, and the right-back currently leads the top-flight tackle charts, with 120, according to Premier League data. The research data were collected e-analysis soccer programme. Frequency, average, standard deviation which were descriptive statistics were used for analysis of the research data. Finally, we make an analysis of all group stage matches from last six World Cup editions (1998 to 2018), and we predict the most likely number of collusions and dead rubber games for the new format of the World Cup.
During our analysis we consider a variation of the proposed 3-group format in which the order of matches for each group is predetermined. Consequently it was observed that 61,14% of goals were scored in the 2nd half of the matches and most of goals in the last 15 minutes of the matches, 63,69% of goals were scored after organized attack (open play), 38,59% of goals were scored from penalty, 78,98% of goals were scored with foot shot, 72,61% of goals were scored with one touch, 84,71% of the goals were scored through the penalty zone and 60,50% of the goals were scored in 3rd zone which was determined in the penalty zone. Moreover, there was a significant group of respondents (10%) who used digital media to place bets on the World Cup matches, sometimes even during the match, at a betting office. Only 2% of respondents used digital media to watch live streaming of the World Cup matches, while17% of respondents used digital media to get additional information.

Raut and Harmanpreet Kaur (51) compiled a 95-run fourth-wicket partnership, lasting just over 20 overs, 스포츠중계 리치티비 before Kaur was caught in the deep off the bowling of Alex Hartley. Mostly, respondents retrieved information on the schedule of the World Cup and updates on intermediate and final results of matches. Next, we discuss scenarios in both 4-team and 3-team group formats that lead to such matches. In this paper, we discuss the possibility of matches with limited importance (called non-competitive) for final group standing for both 4-team and 3-team groups and we introduce our definitions of collusion and dead rubber games. Moreover, of the teams that scored first results showed that they won 71,42% of the matches. Additionally, we apply our models on the Open International Soccer Database and show that our approach leads to good predictions for domestic league football matches as well. If successful, the city-wide approach is expected to be rolled out to towns and cities nationwide.
3D skate fitting and foot scanning is valuable to our customers in which they can figure out which stock skate works best for their specific needs and even make recommendations and showcase how skates would fit on the feet if they are smaller or larger. City are in decent form, whereas United are in a crisis according to the media, but who will come out on top? Place kicks in Rugby Union present valuable opportunities to score points outside the spatiotemporal dynamics of open play but are executed under varying performance constraints. We analysed effects of specific task constraints and relevant contextual factors on place kick performance in the 2015 Rugby Union World Cup. Effects of spatial task constraints were analysed for each kick, using distance (m) and angle (°) of the kick to the goalposts. A binomial logistic regression model revealed that distance from, and angle to, the goalposts were significant predictors of place kick outcome.
