GU LEGENDS: new season setup


Hello managers!

In the middle of March we asked you, on which days you would like to play your league matches. 62.5% of managers that voted in the forum, chose Wednesdays and Saturdays as their match days. Starting next season all league matches will be played on those days.


When will which matches be played?

Cup (from round 10)/ International Masters (K.O.-round)

As before, the national cup and the knockout phase matches of the International Masters share a day. Since the cup and the International Masters run at an offset of each other, you will never have a cup match and an IM match on the same Friday.


When does the new season begin?

The new season will most likely begin on May 4th. The first match will not, as before, be played on that Saturday, but on Wednesday, May 10th. Here an overview for the upcoming season:

The strongest teams in goalunited LEGENDS will compete in two leagues against each other and they can play out the winners amongst themselves. They will be personally invited and receive a password to join the league. The 3 best teams of each elite league then play in one league with 10 teams against each other to find the best.
All other teams can join the event that fits their strength to fight for the title!

We hope that this fight for the trophy will help you pass the time between seasons. If you have any questions about the changes, you can always ask them in the forum.

We wish you all good luck in the deciding phase of this season!
