So here we are, the initial round of the G20 Battle Royale, on our path to finding the big winner of the G20 festival.
If you’ve missed the intro – refer to our preview below.
Tonight’s round is to remove 4 countires to ensure a neat 16 countries are left for the proper rounds.
What fairer way to eliminate countries than basing it on their FIFA Football Ranking. What country could be best at the G20 if they’ve never made a World Cup, and have a triple figure FIFA ranking.
A point to note is that one of the twenty is the European Union (EU). As it will be too hard to split and average all the nations involved under the EU umbrella, and all the decent countries that make money or not lose it spectacularly are already flying solo as their own entity, we’ve removed the EU for sheer ease.
