Step 6 of 7
Make your case
Your pitch
You haven't chosen a model yet. Go back to the Score page, test a few weightings and pick your final choice.
Back to Score →Structure your pitch in 3 parts
- 1. My pick — the country I recommend, and my single most convincing number.
- 2. My model — my weights, and why one metric counts more than another (e.g. why xG over win rate?).
- 3. One limit — one limit of my model, and what I would check next.
You are presenting to FIFA's leadership team. 5 minutes. Share your screen and show your dashboard. Answer:
- Which metrics did you weight most heavily, and why does that make sense for a 7-match neutral-ground tournament?
- Which country are you recommending, and what is the single most convincing number in your analysis?
- If you could add one more data point before the press conference, what would it be and why?
You are evaluated on the quality of your reasoning, not just your final pick.

If your model points to the same country experts already consider the favorite, what does that tell you?
Now it's the ambassadors' turn: compare their recommendation with yours.
