|
|
/o/ v /f/
Background: /f/ knocked /o/ out of the 2015 4chan Summer Cup with a 1-0 victory in the Round of 16.
| 20 August 2015, 17:30 UTC |
|
|
/d/ v /v/
Background: /v/ successfully achieved the 9 point mustard race by defeating /d/ 4-2 in the 2013 4chan Winter Cup. /d/ got their revenge in the following Elite tournament, winning 3-0. Further damage was inflicted in the 2015 4chan Autumn Babby Cup when /d/ put five first-half goals away, including a Futa/Alternative double brace. /v/ would surge back to control the damage, losing 5-3.
| 20 August 2015, 18:00 UTC |
|
|
/e/ v /vp/
Background: In a match where all three goals were scored on dubs, /e/ claimed a 2-1 victory over /vp/ in the 2015 4chan Summer Cup. Both teams would be relegated from the group in the end.
| 20 August 2015, 18:30 UTC |
|
|
/r9k/ v /mlp/
Background: /mlp/'s first cup campaign, the 2012 4chan Spring Babby Cup, ended winless and was capped off with a 2-0 loss to /r9k/. The two teams met again in the 2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup, with /mlp/ prevailing 2-1. This match means that, in this tournament, /mlp/ have played all three group stage teams from the 2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup, a cup that they won.
| 20 August 2015, 19:00 UTC |
|
|
/soc/ v /asp/
Background: /soc/ defeated /asp/ 2-0 in the 2014 4chan Slurpfest Cup, with the fortunes from this match being reverse come the end of the group stage ( /soc/ relegated, /asp/ promoted). A rematch between the two teams came in the 2016 4chan Winter Cup, with CENAWINSLOL defying the odds to win the match 2-1 in injury time.
| 20 August 2015, 19:30 UTC |
|
|
/m/ v /an/
Background: /an/ defeated /m/ 2-0 in the 2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup Friendlies, following it with a 3-0 victory in the 2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup. Both matches have since been nullified due to Dragongate. The only legitimate match involving these teams, coming from the 2015 4chan Autumn Babby Cup, may actually be the least believable, as SIX (6) goals were scored in the last ten minutes between the two sides. The match ended 6-2 in /an/'s favor, promoting them back to the Elite stages and keeping /m/ down.
| 20 August 2015, 20:00 UTC |
|
|
/adv/ v /s4s/
Background: In the 2015 4chan Autumn Babby Cup, the final 5-team group stage match was a decisive winner-gets-promoted matchup between /adv/ and /s4s/. Promotion wasn't decided until late, when an 87th minute defensive blunder by /adv/ resulted in the match-winning goal and a 2-1 victory to /s4s/. The goal, however, will forever be remembered for this.
