Correct me if i m wrong !!! Number of matches of each team = 14. Let team A,B,C,D qualify for semifinal. 1.maximum number of matches A can win = 14 (all played ) 2.maximum number of matches B can win = 12 (all played except played with team A) 3.maximum number of matches C can win = 10 (all played except played with team A and B) 4.maximum number of matches D can win = 8 (all played except played with team A , B and C)
!!!! so 8 should be the minimum number of matches to be won to proceed for semis !!!
