so here we go .... Let A loses two of its matches to (one to B and one to C). Let B loses two of its matches to(one to A and one to C) Then C loses two of its matches to(one to A and one to C). Now..... team D, if it ever plays with (A,B,C) will loses..hence minimum number o matches it is going to loses is 6.
Hence, D could only won 8 matches... A-->>12 B-->>12 C-->>12 D-->>8 The same thing goes to if the above team instead of loosing its two matches to two different team loses to a same team. Hence (12,12,12,12) cannot be feasible !!! I hope it is clear.....
