Instructions & Scoring:

Round of 16 (100 points)

Object: Predict the eight matchup winners and the aggregate scores

Each team plays a home-and-home series against their opponent. Total
goals determines the winner. In the case of a draw, the team with more
away goals advances. If total goals and away goals are equal, kicks
from the spot determine the winner.

5 points for each correct winner, max 40
5 points for each correct score, less 1 point for each goal incorrect
(max 40, min 0)
10 bonus points for getting most winners correct (max 10)
10 bonus points for getting most scores correct (max 10)

Note: If any of the knockout rounds or Final is decided on kicks from
the penalty spot, those scores do not count in the score. The score is
considered to be what was achieved during regulation and overtime
play.

======================================================

As a guide to picking, below is the Round of 16 from 2006/07. Note

home) and the rightmost column is what would have been the correct
pick. The (a) means that the matchup was decided on aggregate goals
and the winner was the team with more goals scored away from home.
