Hello Friends!
Welcome to todays's edition of Nations DIary!
Today we'll talk about the scoring system, again, to freshen up everybody's memory. As we're counting the days for the Grand Final kick-off, we'll keep covering all details until then. Also, we'll present Predictions standings so far, and post another interview with a Finalist National Team Couch.
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” — Abraham Lincoln
Let's review the Scoring System adopted for the tournament.
The scores that have been established for this tournament bear a certain resemblance to the scoring system used in old battles:
-
The first 4 classified (1st to 4th place) will have the following bonuses:
1st -> + 20 Points
2nd -> + 15 Points
3rd -> + 10 Points
4th -> + 5 Points -
The last 4 classified (13th to 16th place) will receive a penalty of:
13th -> -5 Points
14th -> -10 Points
15th -> -15 Points
16th -> -20 Points -
The points obtained in the league will be multiplied by 3;
-
The goal difference will be multiplied by 2;
-
There will be a penalty for falling below the goal of -2 points (multiplied by each position below goal);
-
There will be a bonus for being above the goal of 2 points (multiplied by each position above goal);
-
For fulfilling the objective receives a bonus of 2 points;
Examples:
Goal 5
30 league points
5th place
Goal balance: +10Score Calculation => 2 pts (in Position) + [30 League Points * 3] (90 pts) + [10 Goal Balance) * 2 ] (20 pts)
Total Score => 2+90+20= 112 PointsGoal 9
10 league points
11th place
Goal balance: -5Score Calculation => -4 (2 places below Position) + [10 League points * 3] (30 pts)+ [-5 Goal Balance * 2] (-10 pts)
Total Score => -4 + 30 -10 = 16 PointsTo help all National Teams keep their Scores on track, we've prepared an universal table (in Excel format) that can be edited. Here's the link for the file:

The Final Lineups Registration is still going (it ends 19/03 at 23:59 CET). But the Final Leagues PM's are already defined by draw:
League 1F - mounirhomaroc - G1 Morocco
League 2F - BoudouAA - G1 Belgium
League 3F - G1 France
League 4F - Jhonger PG - G1 PeruThe Nations Cup Predictions for the Final is open until 21/03, and on 22/03 we will publish the results.
In the last days we've received a lot of feedback from the Community, and, so far, the Favourites are:
1st place - Brazil
2nd place - Serbia
3rd place - TurkeyTo spice a bit more these Predictions, we've implemented a scoring system: 10 points for each reference in 1st place; 5 points for each reference in 2nd place; 3 points for each reference in 3rd place. The standings above already take in consideration this system, and were updated today, at 19h00 CET.
Let's go support your teams, make your Predictions!

3rd -Today's interviewed National Team Couch in Nations Diary is @Flanatico-NE from Brazil .
Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
Well, I hope it is well disputed, and that Brazil maintains its good performance, and we can end with the title, ahah! We are working hard for this!Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
Maintaining this interaction, keep doing Competitions like this, very well organized, this will make it a lot easier.
My history in the selection, until now we managed to pass to the Nations Cup final, we are leading the World Cup, and in the Championship we are in 3rd.Q : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
I observe all of more relevance, such as Senior, Masters, etc. In my view, you have to be balanced, you have to know how to evolve a squad, and have knowledge of tactics, this is fundamental, and you can decide a title.Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
Well, it is very important. Because within a group, a manager will already know what it's like to work as a team. Yes, you need to, I cannot invite someone to a national team, where the responsibility is huge, if a manager has never had the experience of working in a team.Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
I don't see anything that can improve it more, more. Maybe you can evaluate this score point again, doing something simpler, it would even make it easier for us to set up the spreadsheets, like giving a score to the first ones, negating the last ones, adding along with the team's score in the standings, so the goal would not make a difference, if it is above or below! More is just a suggestion, I think it would be easier.Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
We are certainly available, yes, and help with whatever is needed. The criteria would be the performance in competitions for younger players, such as Youth Cup promises, and sub-700. Having a good performance in them, they will probably have a chance in the under-21 team.Thank you Nadson Eduardo, and good luck to Brazil!
Nations Cup Final calendar :
The lineup registration phase, will start on 15/03 at 00:00 CET and will finish on 19/03 at 23:59 CET;
The draw of the pool, where the National teams and their managers, will be distributed by the different leagues, will be held on 15/03 ;
The draw of the PM´s will be held on 16/03 ;
Between 19/03, after the lineup registration closes, and until 21/03, we will publish all the information, referring to the final ;
On 22/03 all the leagues will start, and the final of the Nations Cup 2021 begins.
And thats all for today! Tomorrow, don't miss another edition of Nations Diary! One more damn good reason to keep track on OSM Forum!
Thank you, stay safe and enjoy life!

@moltensky said in Nations Cup - Explanation, FAQ, Rules and Discussion:
Hello Friends!
Welcome to Saturday edition of Nations Diary! We are only 2 days away from the beginning of the Final! All National Teams have already sent the Lineups, and everything is almost done! Tomorrow we'll share the 4 Leagues composition.
Today we'll talk about the Penalties, to review this very important part of the Tournament. Even if most of the managers already know it by heart, other's may not be yet so inside these aspects, and NC Staff wants to assure that everybody will do their best to avoid the Penalties! Every point will make a difference in this Final, and it would be a shame if a less informed manager would do anything that could compromise it's National Team Score!
"The greatest of faults, I should say, is to be conscious of none." —Thomas Carlyle
As can be seen in the Nations Cup Regulation the Penalties can take place in Transfers, Friendly Matches* and in the Leagues Creation/Entering:
Point 4.1.
CPU offers cannot be accepted (-10 points)Point 4.2.
Instant sales are prohibited (-10 points)Example:
Point 4.3.
Selling at the player's exact market value results into the same penalty as an instant sale. (-10 points)Point 4.4.
The sale and purchase between human coaches is prohibited. (-10 points for each transfer between human coaches).Example:
Point 5.1.
In this edition, friendly matches are forbidden (-15 points for each).Example:
When Creating a League, or when one enters a League by invitation, be careful when choosing the team - if you make a mistake that translates into a penalty:
Point 7.1.
The choice of the wrong team in the same objective results in a penalty of -20 points.Point 7.2.
The choice of the wrong team in different objective translates into the same penalty in 7.1. (-20 points).Managers Replacement
If a mangers quits a League, even though a replacement is allowed (one of the Final Lineup substitutes may enter in it's place), a penalty of -20 points will be applied to the National Team.Remember: any complaint, should be forwarded to the Nations Cup email: staffn145@gmail.com
All Penalties will only be considered if reported with evidence (print screens, League and Managers names) to the NC Staff email.
To help all National Teams keep their Scores on track, we've prepared an universal table (in Excel format) that can be edited. Here's the link for the file:

3rd -@H-Mainguy , France National Team Coach, as the word today in Nations Diary!
Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
Thank you! It was not easy to qualify but we trusted the team even after a difficult beginning. Congratulations to all of them for qualifying! Now we hope to do our best, we finished 5th in the Amateur World Cup so it would be great to do even better.Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
I think that there should be forums for national teams on the correct language forums, and also for teams that speak English or another language than the currently supported ones (GB if you see this ). The topic for the French national team is one of the most viewed one on OSM French forums even if it is not the most active, so it shows that a lot of players want to be part of it! Giving better visibility to those selections and competitions would be a great way to make them even better.
Our national team is old and goes back to sometime around 2014 I think, and it's always managed to be one of the best. But I have never been around to celebrate a title with them, so I hope to be able to do that soon!Q : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
I observe all the competitions within the French community, national selection competitions, and many of the other popular ones (such as the Crew Cup obviously). As a side comment, I like that there are a lot of good competitions now, but I would love to see one or two major international competitions with all the best crews, like the WCC before. Even if it can't be in exactly the same format, it would be great to have an equivalent to a Crews Champions League!
When I build the shortlist, I want managers who are good for both squad building and tactical knowledge, and complement each other well. Another important factor is motivation: sometimes, slightly inferior players feel very motivated when representing the national team and perform even better!Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
If players are not part of a crew, I probably do not know them, so while it is not required, it is certainly better. It was important when battles were the main form of international competition, a little less so now. But if a player has done well in crew competitions, it is always a bonus!Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
First of all, congratulations for running such a great tournament with a wonderful organization, I don't think I've ever seen one as good on OSM! If possible, I would love the tournament to last a little longer, I am happy we made it to the finals but 27 teams out of 43 were eliminated after one round. But other than that, nothing to add!Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
Right now, we do not have a U21 team, but if the idea becomes popular in France, we can maybe have one! If that happens, we will let you know.Thank you Hugo! Best of luck to France in the Final!

http://bit.ly/NC2021_TeamScoreToday we have @Alexandar-Blumenshtil, Serbia National Team Coach, in the spotlight:
Q: Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
Thank you very much, if we didn't believe we had the quality for the finals, we wouldn't have played a tournament. I have to be immodest and say that I expect a place in the top 3 at the end of the tournament, while our ultimate goal is to be champions, I think we have the quality for that with due respect to all other national teams.Q: By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
I think that each national team could organize its own national tournament, and that even anonymous players would get a chance to be noticed by one of the national team leaders, and thus give them a chance at the national level.
Serbia was among only a few countries who invented the story of National Team competitions within OSM about 10 years ago. We played in first tournaments ever, 'Nations Mini Cup', '6 Nations League' etc. After that for some reason competitons involving National teams stoped for 3-4 years. Then around 2015-2016 first versions of WNT arrived. We played 2 editions but didn't achieved much. Our biggest success is winnig the WorldNationsTournament 2017/18 under command of MenagerBL whick was a big suprise for everyone. After that, some 'old school' menagers slowed down, left the game, MenagerBL step down from National Team of Serbia one year later.. The next step that happened was that I took care of the national team, with a totally new and inexperienced team of managers, I got call for our first competition and our first competition we won, that was Euro 2020 and it was a phenomenal thing for this young team. Today, Serbia is a mix of some of the 'old school' players and these 'new' managers and we hope again for the great success of our national team.Q: From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
Basically, I look to register my players for every slightly more serious tournament I like, CCW is extremely interesting to me, our BWC tournament organized by my good friend Ivan Andjal is extremely strong, great for trying out tactics against proven managers, then Romanian RR ...
Honestly, in my opinion both things are important, it doesn't mean anything to you if you make a strong team, and you don't have good tactics to use the strength of the team in the best possible way, Winners cups prove it.Q: How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
I think that it is extremely important for every player and that it is a good thing to be in a strong, and above all well organized clan, where attention is paid to teamwork, where attention is paid to work on tactics, communication. I will be brutally honest, but all those who have been with me in the clan could have learned a lot from me, and I guarantee that they have become much better players than they were before. So being in a clan can have its advantages, where teamwork should be learned first and foremost.
It is not crucial that a player does not have a clan, or that he does not play battles, in the final I will have just such a player who does not play battles.Q: For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
Honestly, I would change a little bit the scoring system. Gave a little more importance to the points on the table..a little more points to achieve the goal, it should not be the same as the goal difference... and one more thing, that some of the penalties are more severely sanctioned, such as penalties for changing players in the middle of the league, in my opinion personal opinion, 20 points is a pretty small penalty for that.Q: Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
I believe that they could also participate in that tournament.
Criteria? Perhaps players who have up to 500 matches in the main slot in the game, therefore, could push them into the fire to represent their country in this way, and to gain experience that will mean something to them later.Thank you Alexander, and good luck to Serbia! One of the Forum Users' favourites to win this final!

@apocalipse4 said in Nations Cup - Explanation, FAQ, Rules and Discussion:
Hello my friends,
"Correct help; encourage, help even more." - Johann Goethe
Today, in the time frame established, all PM, created the leagues and sended invitations. We know that some issues happen, during this event, we are still analysing, the screenshots that were sended. All proven penalties will be duly recorded in the penalty table. A final note, about the decision of establishing the schedule of 11:30/12:00, for creating the leagues. It was already explained, but we want everyone to understand that in a worldwide competition, like the Nations Cup, in which more than 10 time zones are covered, it is practically impossible to please everyone. This decision reflects our idea of balance for all, and it is also a principle of the National teams competition culture, which we want to continue to cultivate. We apologize for the inconvenience caused and hope you understand our decision.
This is the composition, of all the leagues, and their PM´s :
League 1F
Everything is ok in League 1F.
League 2F
Everything is ok in League 2F.
League 3F
In League 3F the naming of the league is wrong, now it´s : "NATION CUP LEAGUE 3F", we kindly ask @TheSpecialOz to change it to : "**NC2021-FINAL-**LEAGUE3F".
League 4F
In League 4F, there´s one manager, that didn´t enter the league so far, @otman347891 from Cameroon with the Excel Moeskroen team.

@ruipsc5
@Apocalipse4And now the moment, you were waiting! The final results of Predictions! The results shown bellow, are the total counted until yesterday at 23:59 CET.
1st place - Serbia with 103 points
(6 votes for 1st [6x10pts]; 8 votes for 2nd [8x5pts]; 1 vote for 3rd [3x1pt])
2nd place - Brazil with 98 points
(5 votes for 1st [5x10pts]; 6 votes for 2nd [6x5pts]; 6 votes for 3rd [6x3pts])
3rd place - Turkey with 83 points
(4 votes for 1st [4x10pts]; 5 votes for 2nd [5x5pts]; 6 votes for 3rd [6x3pts]Score System: 10 points for each reference in 1st place; 5 points for each reference in 2nd place; 3 points for each reference in 3rd place.
And we have a winner! Yes it´s Serbia! In a very balanced vote, they won by a very small margin. Thank you all, for participating in Nations Cup 2021 Predictions! Let´s see in the end, who is the real winner! Good luck to all teams!
Tonight, in Nations Diary, we receive the National coach of Hungary @TusA18, please welcome him with a big applause
Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
A : Thank you very much! Anyone who got in the final, wants to win the competition, and we don’t think otherwise!
Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
A : It was a great idea to organize the Nations Cup, which brought together many great managers to play against each other. In order to expand the OSM Community and keep it together internationally, I think a Facebook group is the best solution that has already been created, so it will be our job to maintain and operate it. Our nation boasts many strong and active crews, who are constantly dueling and participating in various international competitions, so it is always a difficult task to select the best managers.
Q : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
A : We focus exclusively on competitions where we can develop both as a team and individually. I think team building and tactical preparation are equally important. However, the most important for me is still activity and being a real team player.
Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
A : I think it's important for a national team to have managers as a member of a crew. It's difficult to learn to play in a team if you are an individual player, without crew. Managers who are successful at the crew level, are much more able to work together and adapt, even when they are from different crews. The essence is the teamwork.
Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
A : Personally, I am completely satisfied with the current organization and would not change it in any way. Perhaps, I would break the rule, that allows just maximum two managers from the same crew.
Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
A : We are open for this new competition. And I would let the organizers to decide the participation criteria.
FUNtastic! Great interview! Once again, the experience and knowledge, of the elite managers, that compete in Nations Cup, that serves as a legacy for the community and especially for the young coaches, who are at the beginning of a career. Thank you @TusA18 for this interview and good luck to Hungary!
In a day filled with so many emotions, it´s hard to close Nations Diary, but he promise to return tomorrow, with news and updates, from your Nations Diary!
Before you go, enjoy the Nations Cup hymn!
Thank you, stay safe and enjoy life!

@apocalipse4 said in Nations Cup - Explanation, FAQ, Rules and Discussion:
Hello my friends,
"Everything that irritates us in others can lead us to a better knowledge of ourselves." - Carl Jung
This is the state of the leagues, after the first pre season day :
League 1F - Correct name league - Complete - PM - mounirhomaroc
League 2F - Correct name league - Complete - PM - BoudouAA
League 3F - Incorrect name league - Complete - PM - The Special Oz
League 4F - Correct name league - Complete - PM - Jhonger PG
We kindly ask @TheSpecialOz to change the name of league 3F to : NC2021-Final-LEAGUE3F
Unfortunately there were some penalties on the first day of pre-season, this is the state of play:

@Apocalipse4Tonight in Nations Diary, our guest is the National coach of Bosnia and Herzgovina , @AdiAgainCcC give him a warm welcome
Q : Congratulations once again for reaching the finals. What are your expectations from the last phase of the competition?
A : Thank you very much. We are very satisfied with the placement in the finals and thus we have fulfilled our goal. In the final, we play without pressure and every result will be good. As I have already said, by placing in the finals, we have already achieved our goal.
Q : By creating the Nations Cup, our main goal is to strengthen the culture of OSM national teams. What kind of action do you need to take in each national community to achieve this goal? What can you tell us about your national team history?
A : The Nations Cup is a very well-designed and organized competition and I, as the organizer, congratulate you on that. As for the BiH national team, we were founded almost and we are just at the beginning and we are very satisfied with what has been done so far. Of course, a lot still needs to be done, we have a lot of good players that we have to bring to play with us and defend the colors of their country ...
Q : From several competitions in OSM, which of them do you observe? When making your shortlist, which is more important in a manager: building or tactical knowledge?
A : As far as I am concerned, as a selector and captain of the national team, both are important, but one does not work without the other. However, I prefer building a team and then we agree on tactics for the game together ...
Q : How important is it for player development to be part of the crew? Does a player need to be part of the crew to be invited to draft your national team?
A : It is very important to be a part of Crew because there is a lot of experience for playing and communication. Of course, I follow the managers who do not have Crew, and for them and everyone else from our country I organized the BiH championship which is currently underway and we are looking for a national champion and of course, the best placed will have the opportunity to play for the national team.
Q : Can you tell us for future editions of the Nations Cup what improvements you want to implement to improve the overall quality of the tournament and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM Space of National Teams?
A : The organization and everything is great, maybe I would allow playing friendly matches and instant sales of players, but even without that, everything is great ...
Q : Would your nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
A : We are of course ready for all competitions, and as for the u21 competition, I don't know what conditions I would set, but I believe that you will do the right thing as before and of course, we trust you ...
In the end, I congratulate you once again on the excellent organization and effort you put in ... We wish everyone luck in the finals and let the best win ...Well this was a great moment, where the ideas and goals, of this excellent coach, show us where they want to be in the future of OSM National teams competitions, but also humbly recognizes the importance of being in this Final. Thank you @AdiAgainCcC and good luck to Bosnia and Herzgovina!

http://bit.ly/NC2021_TeamScoreAfter a well deserved short vacations period, in a remote paradise island in the middle of nowhere (at least, nowhere to be found), here he is! The tanned and refreshed Sir Hunchy!
Hello folks! I'm back! And super excited with this Nations Cup Final!
Today I'll make an analysis on the Finalists, pointing my favourites, and anticipating what this Final can bring!
Having finished in the 1st place in their Qualifying Groups, Indonesia, Turkey and Serbia are naturally favourites, due to their excellent performances so far! But Croatia, Hungary and Spain also have similar favourite status, as all of them also performed well above average in the previous round!
Never the less, National Teams with huge quality, like Brazil, Syria, Cameroon, France and Belgium also have a saying, and all may be defined by a good start!
Running in the outer lanes, but having already proven their worth, Ukraine, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Peru, India and Morocco can't be forgotten, and their task is easier than all of the others, as the pressure won't be certainly on their side!
Tonight me and my staff will take a look on the first round results, and tomorrow we'll be back with the first highlights on the Individual Awards!
God Damn! what a Final it will be! I'm looking forward to take a look on the first rounds! I'm sure there'll be a lot of surprises!
See ya tomorrow! Cheers!
Today, in Nations Diary, we have the presence of @Jhonger-PG , Peru National Team Coach! Welcome!
Q: Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
Thank you very much. It was very difficult to me to succeeded in this tournament. However, our goal was achieved and now that we are in the final we hope we could win. I am aware that the competition will be difficult, but I will do my best.Q: By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
First of all, let me congratulate you for creating this amazing tournament. This is almost my first competition as a coach, also this type of competitions greatly benefit a national team to strengthen communication and friendship between the members and get confidence and experience.Q: From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
We are informed about of all the competitions in the Hispanic community and we are also encouraging managers to play competitions constantly. According to the second question, we check them in an excel were we registered the squad building and tactical knowledge to make our shortlist because for us both are very important.Q: How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
Well, being in a group influences a lot because being in a good crew make sure us that the player know about the game and the tournaments in the forum. I think that it is very important that a player being part of a group to be called to a national team because in a group you can developer your skills and has more opportunities to play competitive tournaments.Q: For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
Well, how they are doing it is very good, At first I had problems with the scoring system but now it is clear to me. Something that I totally disagree was that some national teams signed up for the competition but they did not participate and it is a lack of respect for the work that one does and damage the perspective of the tournament.Q: Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
I think is a very good idea create U21 tournaments because they are not playing at the moment and it would be helpful for each member of our U21 and of course our Peruvian team U21 would participate. To conclude, I would like to the competition has the same rules and scoring system. Thank you very much for the interview.Your welcome! We also thank you for your kind words, and wish the best of luck to Peru !
And we're almost done for today! We would appreciate if the Managers in competition could share their insights and results with us, here in this topic! Instead of just posting a screenshot, it would be great if you could elaborate on how the rounds went for you, and what surprising results happened! Let's try to improve even more this Topic, with valuable and always respectful inputs! Come on!
See you tomorrow!
Thank you, stay safe and enjoy life!

@apocalipse4 said in Nations Cup - Explanation, FAQ, Rules and Discussion:
Hello my friends,
"May your efforts defy impossibilities, remember that the great things of man have been achieved from what seemed impossible." - Charles Chaplin
Yesterday, the Nations Cup 2021 Final has started, and now we bring to you, the Leaderboard, after the first round :
As you can see, Serbia (128 points) has taken the lead, with a comfortable margin in relation to the second place, India (75 points), completing the podium is Indonesia (29 points). In a second group, we have Morocco (27 points), Ukraine (25 points), Spain (23 points) and Syria (19 points). Closing the half top of the Leaderboard, is Cameroon (3 points), and then the half bottom of the table, with Hungary (-1 point), Peru (-8 points), France (-10 points). In the last 5 places, we have Brazil (-19 points), Belgium (-23 points), Turkey (-40 points), Croatia (-48 points) and the red lantern, Bosnia and Herzgovina (-88 points). With 29 rounds to play, as we make this post the 2nd round is being simulated, many things will happen, so this is only the opening round. It was very exciting, but the best is yet to come!!
As we said yesterday, the Leaderboard reflects the results of the previous day, we will try to update it in the weekend, in real time, but during the week, this will be the rule. Thank you, for your understanding.Today, we are launching, a new initiative, here in the Crews forum, with the purpose of improving the manager´s experience, by consulting their opinion. This new topic, it´s for the whole community, not only for the participants of the Nations Cup 2021, but for every user of OSM. Everyone is welcome! You can check it here :

Tonight, in Nations Diary, we receive another National coach, that lead his country, to the Final. Please welcome, @Restimat the National coach of Belgium
Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
A : Thank you. First of all, I'd like to mention that I'm not alone, we work together with @woopertje, reasons are explained below
As for the expectations, at least Top 6, but we aim for the podium of course.Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
A : Since most of the communication about big competitions happens on the forum through active/important members, I think there should be
a very strong link between organisers and headcoaches (this is already the case ) but also with Community Managers. A national team is something big and unique on osm, but some active countries are not even participating. CM's or voluntary responsibles could simply work as relay between the organisation and these nations.
Let's take Germany for instance, I understand that in the past it was more complicated to show up consistent line-ups since managers needed traditional battles experience, but now, there's no more teamwork needed, it's easier, and Germany has a massive amount of awesome managers. They just need like 4-8 to begin to rock the floor with us!
Same goes for other countries. Hope to see all of them soon!
Therefore, CM's could ensure that all active countries have the opportunity to have a selection and appoint responsibles.
Maybe negotiating an in-app announcement might be possible?
Or just create or maintain national topics active with news.
About the history of the Belgian national team, it goes back to 2014-2015. As a moderator of the French community, I raised a committee and helped them to begin a national team. But I felt like Belgian and Swiss people were forgotten so we also began these two national teams around the same time!
It was very difficult because we didn't have many experienced people at all (only 2: @Seb-the-Rouche and me) so we needed to train managers, run +20 people tests, etc. But now the team has evolved a lot.
Talking about results, we did many events and won against many top countries but still haven't earn any big title yet. Let's say that our best results are a 1/4 final in World Nations Tournament 2017 and a 5th place during the EURO 2018.
Lastly, I'm proud to say that this last year we've worked hand in hand with @woopertje and try to bring the best out of the Dutch and the French community. As a trilingual country, it's important for us to be able to give the chance to anyone who deserves it and proves itQ : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
A : We mainly get to know candidates after running some tests and then/or seeing them perform in leagues like CrewCup world, CrewCup NL, Dutch Divisions (KL), LFS-Cup, Dutch Championship, French Divisions, French Christmas Tournament, French Championship, or important crew leagues.
As for the criteria:- The most important is the Mindset. A manager with awesome skills but a poor mindset won't play. Never saw one with ua though, we're lucky they're all great & fun people
It's all about having fun outside the field and being professional on the field. - Second are Motivation & Availability.
That's all it takes to be good on osm, you can learn anything then. - Thirdly, of course, huge skills both Tactical and Teambuilding.
Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
A : There's no need of a crew at all, but the exigencies require high level competitions experience, so 95% of the time it's reachable only when you are/were in a good crew.
But we also train young talents and advise them good crews; since Belgium has very good managers but only a limited number. There's always this need of preparing the next generation.Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
A : You're already doing a truly amazing job
Perhaps have a place with a clear explanation of everything on 1 page?
So we don't lose ourselves in the middle, because there's a lot of information coming (sometimes gradually).Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
A : It would be a great challenge for us in any case. I think so, yes!
Finding young talents and testing them in U21 before, that sounds fun
As criteria, well main ideas I guess are something like
real aged U21 but difficult to control
only +- U300 played matches seems interesting. (But not that realistic since experience only comes when you stop playing bots/inactive players, whether it's around 1000 matches or 10 matches)
For us maybe the best is: anyone who hasn't played in the official selection yet could be eligible for the U21. It sounds ok.Huge respect again for your work guys!
Those stats, interviews, video, rankings, clear and fast answers...that's lit!Amazing! This guy rocks! What an incredible interview! Thank you so much, for your kind words @Restimat and @woopertje and good luck to Belgium! 🤩🤩
Every day, it gets harder, say until tomorrow, but we have to finish now, and tomorrow we will bring more news and updates, on yours Nations Diary!
Thank you, stay safe and enjoy life!

Hello Friends!
In today's edition of Nations Diary, we'll take a look in the Final Scoreboard after Round 2, highlight the Managers performances in the Individual Awards and present one morw excellent interview with another Finalist National Team Coach.
“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.” — Rumi
After Round 2, played yesterday, this is the Scoreboard:
In this yet highly volatile beginning, in an early stage of the Final, India is now on the lead, with 174 points, followed in the second place by Spain, with 132 points. Serbia completes the podium, with 70 points. Morocco, Syria and Croatia are also having a good start, but in the next days this will most probably change upside down. Let's wait and see. Surprisingly, Brazil is in the last place, but there's a lot to play yet, and these guys will most certainly start climbing the scoreboard soon.
The Leaderboard reflects the results of the previous day, and already includes Penalties.
Short summary of Nations Cup 2021 Penalties:

http://bit.ly/NC2021_TeamScoreWhat's up beloved fans? Missing me already? Fear not! "I'll be your mirror, reflect what you are" as so well sung by Nico and The Velvet Underground! Yes' Sir Hunchy is a 60's nostalgic! But enough of that, let's focus in this Nation Cup Stars, the Managers!
It will be awarded to the managers with more squad evolution in the leagues, with their teams!After Round 2, this is the Manager with better performance in this Award:
- @Jhonger-PG from Peru , with a 158M Squad Evolution is on the lead, performing well above average! Congratulations!
To freshen up everybody's memory this is the reference so far in this award, a score obtained in the 1st Phase:
- @arteromero from Spain , with a final score of 1265M Squad Evolution (after applying the Group C coefficient - 0,9375).
It will be awarded to the managers with more scored goals in the leagues with their teams!- @m-vaswani from India , with 6 scored goals in 2 rounds (average of 2 goals per round), has the lead so far. Excellent start!
After reviewing with more care the calculations os this award in the end of the 1st Phase, as there were 2 Managers with the same score after the coefficient application, we've decided to revise it. In order to have the fairest criteria possible, we've added another variable to the calculation - the amount of wins in the league:
Therefor, with 21 wins in the League of Group C, the reference for this award is from now on:
- @MenagerBL from Serbia , with a final standing of 51 Scored Goals (after applying the Group C coefficient - 0,9375).
It will be awarded to the managers with less conceded goals in the leagues with their teams!So far, with only 2 rounds played, there are a lot of Managers with no conceded goals yet. So let's wait a few more rounds to see who will maintain a clean sheet the longer!
But there's one Manager who has already proven it's worth, being the reference so far in this Award:
- @palasgiales from Panama , with 9 conceded goals (and only 2 defeats) in Phase 1.
It will be awarded to the managers that scores the most points for their National Teams!!- @Mickytuli from Spain , with 68 points scored for his National Team, is the MVP so far! Congratulations! Keep the rhythm!
The reference to beat in this Award belongs to:
- @davidaguila76 from Spain , with a final score of 275 pts (after applying the Group C coefficient - 0,9375).
Hell yeah! We're having an excellent start! This looks like Hollywood Boulevard, with a huge Stars concentration per square inch. I'm delighted!
See you all tomorrow! With more info after this Final round 3, that is being played today! Cheers!
We have the pleasure to welcome as todays interviewed in Nations Diary, Morocco National Team Coach, @semlali-semlali !
Q: Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
My expectations for the final will be strong and difficult. We expect who will win, but for us our goal is to win the championshipQ: By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
For me, it is necessary to intensify the tournaments of the national teams.
As for the Moroccan national team, we have participated in a lot of tournaments such as WNT ( World Nations Teams ) and ANT (Arab Nations Teams). We reached the final more than once in ANT and without luck we would have achieved the championshipQ: From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
I like a lot of tournaments like CCW, ISC, and FMS ... like these tournaments, you can improve your level with them. For me, team development and strength of tactics are very important and complement each other. You cannot develop your team while you are weak in terms of tactics.Q: How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
Of course, he must be part of a crew, in order to gain more experience in difficult battles and patrols.Q: For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
I think your organization of the current tournament is very excellent, the important thing is that it will last for years.Q: Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
I don't think we will participate because we don't have another squad for the tournament.Thank you for your time, and congratulations once again for the Qualifying! Best of luck to the Final! Go Morocco!
Yesterday we've launched a new initiative, here in Crews Forum, with the purpose of improving the manager´s experience, by consulting their opinion. This new topic it´s for the whole community, not only for the participants of the Nations Cup 2021, but for every user of OSM. Everyone is welcome! You can check it here.
Please be welcome to answer our first opinion pool!
And thats all for today! Come back tomorrow to keep on track on this Final's plot! Bye!

It will be awarded to the managers with more scored goals in the leagues with their teams!@m-vaswani from India , with 7 scored goals in 3 rounds (average of 2,3 goals per round), is apparently slowing down, but we all know that once one gets started, its very difficult to stop it!
It will be awarded to the managers with less conceded goals in the leagues with their teams!After 3 rounds played, there are still a lot of Managers with clean sheets. The defensive football is king here!
It will be awarded to the managers that scores the most points for their National Teams!!
@Alexandar-Blumenshtil from Serbia , with 85 points scored for his National Team, is now the MVP! What a great performance of this G13!
I'm already analysing the National teams perfomances closely, and, in the next days, The Nation of the Day rubric will be back! Stay tuned!
Sir Hunchy, over and out!
Today we have the interview with Cameroon Captain, @otman347891 !
Q: Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
Thank you very much! Our goal will be to do the maximum we can, we have not set a goal except to give it all we've got.Q: By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
I think there are a lot of people playing OSM who ignore the existence of national teams which is a shame because there are some great players not playing for the national team simply because they don't know it. exists or because they have a nationality that we rarely see on OSM. The solution would be for each moderator to explain this on their community's forum. Also, let's not forget that not everyone goes to the OSM forum so we should also communicate via social networks. The more the years go by and the more, the number of national teams increases and it will continue.The Cameroon national team was founded very recently, in December 2020. It was a project of the coach @hangaboy and it took a lot of work. We are happy that in such a short time the team has become formidable. I think this is all due a great job done by the coach and the nation's players.
Q3: We organize a lot of selection championships between us in order to train and train new talents for competitions. We encourage them to also register for the DF ("French speaking divisions") which is a good French competition to train and play against good coaches.
We are looking at the performance of players in Selection and DF Championships as well as other Crew competitions.Q: From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
The most important criterion for a player is- discipline
- motivation
3.tactical skills and buying and selling
Cameroonian players all generally have these criteria.
Q: How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
I don't think that it is obligatory, however to advance the players and to make them acquire experience, it is necessary but it is not a criterion which is taken into account enormously by the coach to make his lineup.Q: For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
I don't have any big suggestions since you are doing an incredible job, the only thing to do for the next editions would be to change the format as well as the leagues.Q: Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
I don't know if we will be able to participate in a NC U21 because we do not have a lot of players since we have just been recently founded but if we have the possibility for that, yes why not.
The criteria would be not to have played for the first team even if it will be a little difficult to control.
thank you very much for the interview, you do a great job bravo to you. Respect!Thank you so much, and, once again we would like to congratulate your initiative of organising a brand new Tournament for National Teams - New World Cup! It's almost in the end of Round 1! Well done!
We've launched a new initiative, here in Crews Forum, with the purpose of improving the manager´s experience, by consulting their opinion. This new topic it´s for the whole community, not only for the participants of the Nations Cup 2021, but for every user of OSM. Everyone is welcome! You can check it here.
Please be welcome to answer our first opinion pool! We already have some inputs, and it looks great! Take a look!
And we're done! Tomorrow we'll be back with more news on this Final! Cheers!
Thank you, stay safe and enjoy life!

And that´s it folks! I´ll be back tomorrow, with the best managers performances, until then keep playing the beautiful game!Tonight, in Nations Diary, we receive one of the "surprises" of the first phase, please give a warm welcome, to @Haidara-RM5 the National coach of Syria!
Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
A : Thank you, my friend..My expectation is that the final will be very strong with the presence of the elite international teams participating .. I cannot certainly expect the final winner of the tournament..but I expect that the teams that came out of the first group will be strong candidates to compete for the title ...
Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
A : I think that the national teams should support this championship by allowing the elite coaches to participate in it .. in this way the competition is very strong and the other national teams that did not participate previously will be relieved to participate and give their best....The Syrian national team is a newly established team that includes the elite of Syrian coaches who are among the most important Arab teams .. We have the determination, determination and sportsmanship and are always ready to participate in all Arab and international competitions and are ready to present our best.
Q : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
A : Monitor Arab competitions in general .../ مسابقة المنطقي _ ARAB LEAGUE CUP _ Arab Professional champion/....Both are complementary to each other .. The most important thing for me is commitment and providing the most that a coach can do.
Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
A : Of course, the player must have sufficient experience within the game, whether it is participation in individual tournaments or crew tournaments .. He does not necessarily have to be a member of one of the crews in order to be on the national team list, but the coaches of the teams are more famous and experienced than the coaches who do not belong to the crew.
Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
A : I hope that the competition will include more teams ... this in turn will lead to an increase in elimination rounds and an increase in matches and stages, leading to more enjoyment and strong competition ... Perhaps for the sake of encouragement, putting cash prizes or coins prizes that may make some players more eager to participate.
Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
A : Of course . The Syrian team is ready to participate in all competitions..As for the selection criteria, the spirit of the youth will be taken into consideration in addition to the coach's ability to adhere to, his knowledge of good tactics and his constant follow-up to the transfer market.
Wonderful! This wise coach, with simplicity but determined, took his National team to the Nations Cup Final, where will they finish after this great achievement? Thank you very much @Haidara-RM5 for this interview, and good luck Syria! ️️
Already over? Yes i´m afraid so, but we will return tomorrow, with more news and updates, in yours Nations Diary!

In the bottom half of the table, teams teams keep changing positions, except for Ukraine (-56 points), that hold the red lantern, the highlight goes to Peru (16 points) that climbed from 15th postion to 10th. This will be a constant fight, and tomorrow probably, new changes will happen, and we could have a new leader! What a fantastic Final with such enormous National teams!

Hi OSM lovers! Your OSM special advisor has returned! Hunchy in da house!
This final keeps really hot, with outstanding managers, performing better and better each day! Let´s see who´s leading the Nations Cup awards :It will be awarded to the managers with more squad evolution in the leagues, with their teams!
@Jhonger-PG from Peru with 225M of squad evolution, continues doing a smart buiding of his team! Cheers! 🤩
It will be awarded to the managers with more scored goals in the leagues with their teams!
@Mickytuli from Spain with 9 scored goals, is the new king of the strikers! Bravo!
It will be awarded to the managers with less conceded goals in the leagues with their teams!
After 5 rounds played, there are still a lot of Managers with clean sheets. Fantastic defenses over here!
It will be awarded to the managers that scores the most points for their National Teams!!
@Alexandar-Blumenshtil from Serbia , with 99 points achieved for his National team, fights for every point like it was the last one! Sensational dude!
And that´s it my beloved fans! Tomorrow i´ll be back, to track down the best individual performances in this Final! Until then, have fun with the beautiful game!
We are almost finishing, this cycle of interviews, with the National coaches that are playing the Final. Tonight, we receive in Nations Diary, another "outsider" in the first phase, that conquered his golden ticket, welcome @Stoyka-Ivan National coach of Ukraine , please give a strong applause to our guest!
Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
A : Thank you very much for your congratulations. Probably everyone wants to win but we will set more realistic goals. If we are above the 10th position in the final, it will be a good result for us. But we will fight to the fullest.
Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
A : In my opinion, the tournament is well organized and would not change anything in the rules. A very interesting rule of delimitation by clan and replacement in the next round. I liked it. The only thing that would forbid is the purchase of Legends. The history of the Ukrainian national team began here at the Nations Cup.
Q : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
A : The most interesting competitions are national teams. It is always necessary to strengthen the team, but in such tournaments and especially in the finals it is very difficult to do so. In such cases, you can not do without good tactics.
Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
A : I believe that it is important for a manager to be in a clan and play in various tournaments or in high-level battles near the top 100. But of course I do not consider it mandatory.
Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
A : I think you made this tournament as perfect as possible. The only thing is that all participants would probably like to play one on one with each team as in battles. But this requires special leagues where the Spaniards will not play against the British, for example.
Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
A : I don't know whether Ukraine U-21 will take part in such a tournament. But as a coach I will be happy to lead it and not play for it as I believe that those who were declared for the national team could not play for U-21. Next, I think that the main rule could be that the manager has been playing the game for less than 5 years.
This is fabulous! Sponsor a National team's debut in the Nations Cup! We hope it will be the first of many competitions for Ukraine, with best wishes for the final and the next competitions in the future! Thank you @Stoyka-Ivan for this great interview and good luck Ukraine!
Don´t forget to return tomorrow, at the same time, to find out the news and updates, in yours Nations Diary!
We've launched a new initiative, here in Crews Forum, with the purpose of improving the manager´s experience, by consulting their opinion.

It will be awarded to the managers that scores the most points for their National Teams!!@Mickytuli from Spain , with 105 points achieved for his National Team, has become the new MVP of this Final. No wonder Spain is on the lead!
Lots of quality here! This is proving to be a great Final, with top of the line Managers performances so far. Whoever wins the Champion Title, will deserve it entirely for sure!
Speaking on that, today I'll start analysing National Teams Performances again! After 6 rounds we already have enough data to bring you back the Nation of the Day rubric!
So, today, on the highlight we have nothing less than the current Leader of the Final, Spain !
Spain is currently in the 1st place, with 236 points! After performing very well in the qualifying round, finishing 2nd in Group C, they're up to a good start in this Final! So far, this National Team's MVP (and also in the competition) is @Mickytuli , that, with 105 pts (5 wins and 1 defeat), is contributing with 44% os Spain's score! @davidaguila76 is also performing very well so far, with a 32% contribution to the National Team score (76 pts - 4 wins and 2 draws). Keep it up "nuestros hermanos!

In the last round, we expect a league where everyone is more active and the struggle is at the top until the last moment.Q: By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?

When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
I think the most important is the quality and activeness of the staff, then tactics and of course luck.Q: How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
No, it is sufficient to prove himself, decisions are made after each application is evaluated.Q: For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
Certainly, for this to be a very important and prestigious tournament, the rules and the tournament operation need to be determined in one go and explained in a text, so that there are no new rules or glitches every day.Q: Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
Yes, you can play, there should not be too many criteria, I think it would be enough to have the account completed for 1 year.Thank you! Goof luck to Turkey !

A couple of Spanish Managers appear on the highlights! No wonder they're on the 1st place in the Leaderboard! But they're not alone in the Leagues, and theres a LOT to play yet! No one can rest!

@konini , from France , is the first one! he finished in the 1st place in League 2A, with Real Betis!
Q - Who is the person behind your nickname? Can you speak a little about yourself?
Hi, IRL I'm Nicolas. "konini" came from my first name: "koni" is for "niko", but when i registered (in 2013!) it was already taken... So I doubled the last syllabe! And "konini" sounds like italian tactician, so it's perfect... haha ! Otherwise I am an IT consultant, I love my job. And I am a supporter of the Olympique de Marseille (french team): My blood is blue and white!Q - You had a successful NC 2021 Round 1, finishing 1st. What are your thoughts on your performance?
Thank you
Good performance, i'm happy. But I was objective 1 so it is "normal"!
We qualified, that's what's important.Q - Who were your biggest rivals on your way to success in Round 1 and what were the most difficult games you had?
Yeah @Moltensky (Portugal nation) with Benfica (yes Benfica for Portugal nation haha). He was leader for the 3/4 of the championship, and I took the lead at the 27th (of 30)! The most difficult game... I don't remember, surely against Benfica (i losed home) or @Ante Stiglich with Espanyol (3rd) and @Alkisaralali with Glasgow (4th).Q - Let's speak about some aspects of the game itself when you're competing in such a high level like the NC. What is more important for you: the squad building or the tactical systems? Why?
Tactical system in first! Simple: You can win with a very good tactic and a weaker squad. A very strong squad is not enough. But at this level you have to build a strong team too: You can't leave nothing to chance.Q - Concerning the NC 2021 and the individual awards (Goal Frenzy, Extreme Evolution, The Wall and MVP), do they motivate you to perform even better? If so, why?
A little bit. For me, my first motivation is to win with France! I never won WNT or Euro even if we were close (last euro: semi final). I WANT TO WIN haha!Q - The Final has already started and everyone is doing their best to take the gold medal home. Which National Team do you think will be the winner?
France, of courseThank you Nicolas! And congratulations once again for your impressive performance in the Nations Cup 2021 Qualifying Round! Best of luck to France!
And thats all for today! Come back tomorrow! We don't need to say why, right?

I didn't leave my spot since yesterday! I'm so amazed with this Nations Cup 2021 Final, that i'm spending all the time I've got analysing Managers and National Teams performances! And it's worth every second spent! Let's take a look on how the Managers are performing after 8 Rounds played!
Extreme Evolution
It will be awarded to the managers with more squad evolution in the leagues, with their teams!After 7 rounds with @Jhonger-PG (Peru ) in the lead, suddenly a bunch of managers gave an extra boost to their squads value! Now @hangaboy (Cameroon ) is the new leader, with 246M Squad Evolution! Epic! But how long will this manager keep the leadership?! Let's wait and see!
Goal Frenzy
It will be awarded to the managers with more scored goals in the leagues with their teams!@hangaboy (Cameroon ) with 13 scored goals (average of 1.6 goals per match) is alone in the leadership now! I'm so proud of this guy! I just love attacking mentality!
The Wall
It will be awarded to the managers with less conceded goals in the leagues with their teams!
Now we have 3 Managers with the only 2 conceded goals in 8 Rounds (average of 0,25 per round): @zenudin_m (Bosnia and Herzegovina ), @davidaguila76 (Spain ) and @Ante-Stiglich (Croatia )! These guys won't make it easy for their opponents, thats for sure!Most Valuable Player
It will be awarded to the managers that score the most points for their National Teams!!@Mickytuli (Spain ) , with 111 points achieved for his National Team, is improving his performance every day! It's Managers like this in the lineup, Spain will surely have a saying in the end!
@hangaboy from Cameroon is on the highlight today! He's performing superbly both in the Extreme Evolution and Goal Frenzy Awards! Bravo!
Nation of the Day
India is under analysis today! After 8 rounds played in this Nations Cup 2021 Final, they're currently in the 2nd place with 195 points!One Manager's performance stands out in India's lineup for this Final: @Kashaf-sanchez alone has 42% of the National Team score so far, with 82 points (4 wins, 3 draws and only 1 defeat, 6 goals scored and 3 conceded). @Paniyath and @M-Vaswani are also performing very well, with a 29% and 22% contribution respectively. After achieving qualification in the last rounds of the 1st Phase, this time these folks are starting very well, and proving to be a National Team to be considered for the Champion Title! Impressive! Great works lads! Keep it up! The sky is the limit!
And it's all for today! I need to get some Easter Eggs to my little ones, before the supermaket closes! I've been so busy here in the NC analysis that I almost forgot about that! They wouldn't forgive me! Sir Hunchy is also a dad, you know?! Gotta go!!! Cheeeeeers!
Today we'll keep interviewing Managers who have stand out in Nations Cup 2021 Qualifying Round. This time, we bring you the insights of @GoldGamer381 from Serbia , who finished 1st in League 4C!
Q - Who is the person behind your nickname? Can you speak a little about yourself?
I am Filip, better known in the game as GoldGamer381 and I play for the national team of Serbia.There is no particular story around my nickname in the game, I came up with the idea spontaneously.Q - You had a successful NC 2021 Round 1, finishing 1st. What are your thoughts on your performance?
I played well in the semifinals, in some games it was great, in some it was a little worse, it's all an integral part of the game. I think I could have played better in a few games, but overall I am satisfied with my performance.Q - Who were your biggest rivals on your way to success in Round 1 and what were the most difficult games you had?
I honestly couldn’t single anyone out, every game was tough and they were all top managers in the league.Q - Let's speak about some aspects of the game itself when you're competing in such a high level like the NC. What is more important for you: the squad building or the tactical systems? Why?
When it comes to the game itself, it is equally important to make a good team and play equally well tactically. But I honestly think it’s a little more important to make a good team because without a good team it’s very hard to play strong leagues like NC.
It is more important to me that the team has a better result than winning an individual award such as the MVP, but of course, like any other player, it motivates me to be as good as possible.Q - Concerning the NC 2021 and the individual awards (Goal Frenzy, Extreme Evolution, The Wall and MVP), do they motivate you to perform even better? If so, why?
This is a very difficult question because only top national teams play in the finals. If I have to single someone out, it would be Turkey, which has a lot of good players. I must add that I believe that Serbia will take the title of champion.Thank you Filip! Congratulations for your superb contribution to Serbia qualification to the Final! Good Luck!
