Format for the Pepsi eFootball PES Tournament 2021
Starting with the format, the tournament is to play out in a Champions League format on myClub. A total of 32 players are randomly drawn into groups consisting of 4 players. After the group stage concludes, the top 2 players advance to the single-elimination bracket. This means that only 16 players will achieve a spot in the playoffs. Here, the players are split into 2 pots, each having 8 players.
Important to keep in mind that each series in the group stage will play out on 2 games (best of 2).On the other hand, the playoffs stage will play out with an aggregate score, meaning that if the 2nd match is a tie, the aggregate score of the game prior will take into effect. If that does not declare a winner, Extra Time + Penalties will determine the game’s outcome.
