You have a 65 million budget to buy 8 countries of which you think are going to win the most points in the Fantasy World Cup Football (Budget) 2018.

The FIFA World Cup starts with a group phase where 32 countries are divided over 8 groups of 4 countries. In their group they will play every country one time (3 matches in total). In the group phase the teams can win points in every match. If they win a match they will get 3 points and for a draw they will get 1 point.

After the group phase the best 2 countries per group will go to the so called knockout phase. For reaching the knockout phase (round 2) every country gets 5 points. See the points table for more details.

An example: Brazil wins 3 group matches in round 1. In this case Brazil will score 9 points for your team (3 x 3 points). Because they also reached the knockout phase Brazil gets another 5 points. For reaching the quarter final Brazil will get 5 points and for reaching the semi final they will get 8 points. When Brazil loses the semi-final they earned 27 points in total (9 points in the group phase and 18 points (5, 5 and 8) in the knockouts).
