Title: World Cup Quiz
Post by: scotty2hatty on June 16, 2018, 12:02:55 AM
Older members will know I love a quiz so I've prepared a 10 question World Cup quiz for the members of blonde.

It'll work a little unusually. Below are the 10 questions, please reply in thread with your answers to the questions BUT please also reply using the smallest text available (I'm sure there was a spoiler function before, moderator?). The reason for this will be clear shortly.

When I see your reply I will let you know how many questions you have correct, but not which questions are correct. The small text requirement above is purely so that initial guesses can be the guesser's own as I imagine some would like to answer unspoilered - you will be able to see the person's guesses by quoting it which will be essential in the attempt to get to 10 correct as a group. I hope that after a bunch of initial guesses that it would be cool if some chat/collusion goes on in the thread.

So blonde how long will it take you to get all 10? They're tricky-ish, but very gettable/guessable. Some of the top quizzers from before (horseplayer, Tightend) may smash it, hope not.


1. Which 2 countries are debuting at this year's World Cup?

2. Egyptian goalkeeper Essam El-Hadary is the most capped player at this year's World Cup with 158 caps, but which player is second on that list?

3. Name the four English players who played in the EPL 17/18 who have scored a goal at a World Cup Finals?

4. Which 2 countries at this year's World Cup have squads made up entirely of players who play their club football outside of their home nation?

5. Which club side have the most players at this year's World Cup?
