Day 22 - Final Scoreboard

The 2022 World Cup Tipster finally comes to an end.
André claims first place with a total of 297 points from 64 matches, improving on his second-place finish during Euro 2020.

Tino, who came 16th in 2020, improved even more to take second place, with 284 points. Paul, consistently quite good, finishes third with 282 points.

Craig leads the best of the rest, finishing fourth with 248 points, 6 ahead of Soeren and Christian who finished level on 242 points.
Thorsten ended just 2 behind them in 7th place on 240, with Ben a further 5 points behind in 8th.

Further down the table, it remained very close even at the end: Joris gained a total of 225 points to finish 9th, which is 1 point more than Alex and Robert achieved, and 2 more than Axel. El-Hinny was close behind on 219 points. Just 6 points separated Joris in 9th from El-Hinny in 13th.

Franzi finished in 14th place with 209 points, 3 ahead of Ralph on 206, and 13 ahead of Joe on 193.
Bringing up the rear were Andreas with 166, Rachel with 141 and, far in the distance, Simon on 49 points (though it should be noted that Rachel only tipped 38 matches and Simon tipped just 19).

Congratulations to André for winning the 2022 World Cup Tipster!

After 64 matches, that concludes the 2022 Tipster - I hope you've enjoyed it. Thank you for all the humorous comments, positive feedback, critiques, general moaning, jokes and memes, and thank you for taking part.

If I run a Tipster for the 2024 European Championships, I shall be in touch...

Correct Scores: André and Paul both tipped the Correct Score in 8 of the 64 matches during the Tipster, while Alex achieved this in 7 matches. Four people tipped the Correct Score in 2 matches. For comparison, in 2020, one person tipped the Correct Score in 9 of the 51 matches. Correct Margin: Tino tipped the Correct Margin in 13 matches, almost a quarter of the total. Simon did not tip the Correct Margin at all, but he only tipped 19 of the 64 matches. Correct Outcome: Joe tipped in favour of the winning team in 23 matches, more than anybody else. Unfortunately, he only tipped the Correct Score twice and the Correct Margin three times, so it didn't earn him that many points. Being Right: André tipped the correct winner in 41 matches. Next best was Tino in 37 matches, with Craig and Paul level on 36 matches. Simon tipped the correct winner in 6 of his 19 matches; Rachel tipped correctly in 19 of her 38 matches. Scorer: The first Scorer was correctly tipped in 11 matche...
