‘Twas a low-scoring round in the McDonald’s FIFA World Cup™ Fantasy, but Magicstick and Paquinho somehow managed 54-point hauls to sprint on to the shoulder of the pacesetters. Magicstick81 daringly named Ivan Perisic as their captain, and the Croatia No4 had his terrific nine-point return doubled into 18. Paco074, for his part, picked five defensive players from France, who kept the only clean sheet of the semi-finals, including 12-point marksman Samuel Umtiti.

Allstars Anonymous and Florid head down the home straight as the neck-and-neck pacesetters in the race for a brand new Kia Sportage. The former’s coach, Jerseyman8, had Hugo Lloris and Kieran Trippier to thank for elevating him from third.

Perennial contenders YazanX dropped to fifth, while 48-point returns sent CARDS and Dier Times sixth and eighth respectively. Equites, meanwhile, claimed a whopping 59 points – and without using any Boosters – to rocket joint-16th. Coach Garbaggio09 had most of Round 6’s big hitters, including Umtiti, Perisic, Lloris, Antoine Griezmann and Mario Mandzukic.

Incredibly, just four points separate the front four from over 2.1 million participants, and 43 teams are within 25 points of the pace, so there’s still everything to play for. So, have a read of our Round 7 preview and leave it all on the line. Good luck, coaches!
