What this page can support
A reproducible semi-final model needs the full preceding bracket, timestamped ratings and explicit rules for extra time, penalties and player availability.
Evidence checklist
- Retain every upstream bracket assumption.
- Report ranges or scenarios instead of false precision.
- Keep confirmed facts separate from projected availability.
- Compare with official results only in a labelled retrospective.
Limit of the archive
The legacy page claimed repeated model runs without retaining the run record. Those claims were removed.
A forecast and an official result are different records. The forecast must remain dated and frozen; the result should come from the competition organiser.
