Man of the matchShown but not scoredShown but not scored

Experts score exactly what a Pelea user scores for the same call, which is what makes the numbers comparable. A wrong pick still scores, just as it does for users, and the floor is 1 points; only a pick we could not check at all scores nothing. Precision is measured per tip type, and starting XIs are excluded from the overall percentage: nine of eleven is not a full hit and would drag the percentage down artificially. A pick we inferred from a predicted scoreline counts only in its own category, never in the points total.
