Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In my Fantasy Football game, a goalkeeper gets 2 points for playing over 60 minutes and 1 point for every 3 saves he makes. For each 2 goals he concedes, he loses 1 point. My goalkeeper, Tim Howard of Everton, played the entire 90 minutes in their 0-2 loss to Manchester City. He did manage to make 3 saves though. What was Tim Howard's score?

Answer: 2 points

Howard got 2 points for playing over 60 minutes, and 1 additional point for making the 3 saves. However, he lost 1 point for conceding 2 goals. Thus, his score was 2+1-1=2 points.
2. In my Fantasy Football game, a defender gets 2 points for playing over 60 minutes, and 4 additional points for keeping a clean sheet. He can also receive bonus points for an outstanding performance. My defender, Laurent Koscielny of Arsenal, scored 7 points in Arsenal's 1-0 win over Chelsea. How many bonus points did he receive (he played all 90 minutes)?

Answer: 1 point

Koscielny got 7 points in total, 2 of which were for playing over 60 minutes and 4 for keeping the clean sheet. Thus, he collected 7-4-2=1 bonus point.
3. In my Fantasy Football game, a defender gets 2 points for playing over 60 minutes and 6 points for scoring a goal. However, 1 point is subtracted for receiving a yellow card and 1 point is subtracted for each 2 goals his team concedes. What was the score of my defender, Maya Yoshida of Southampton, who played the entire 90 minutes, scored a goal and conceded a yellow card in his team's 4-4 draw with Watford?

Answer: 5 points

Yoshida, a Japanese defender, received 2 points for playing over 60 minutes and 6 more points for scoring that goal. He lost 1 point to the yellow card, and 2 more points for his team allowing 4 goals to the opposition. Hence, his score for that match is 2+6-1-2=5 points.
4. In my Fantasy Football game, a midfielder gets 1 point for playing less than 60 minutes and 5 points for scoring a goal. What was the score of my midfielder, Scott Sinclair of Aston Villa, who entered as a sub in the 70th minute of their match against Sunderland, scored a memorable goal and collected 2 bonus points?

Answer: 8 points

Sinclair was a super-sub in this match. He only played 20 minutes for which he got 1 point, but his goal added 5 points to the tally and his excellence gained him 2 more bonus points. His total score was 1+5+2=8 points.
5. In my Fantasy Football game, a midfielder gets 2 points for playing more than 60 minutes, 3 points for assisting a goal and 1 point if the team keeps a clean sheet. What was the score of my midfielder, Jean Beausejour of Wigan Athletic, who played the entire match and assisted 2 goals in their 3-0 win over Burnley?

Answer: 9 points

Beausejour, a fine Chilean left-wing midfielder, got 2 points for playing more than 60 minutes, 6 points for the 2 assists and 1 point for the clean sheet. In total, 1+6+2=9 points were scooped by him in that match.
6. In my Fantasy Football game, a midfielder gets 1 point for playing less than 60 minutes. 3 points are deducted for conceding a red card. My midfielder, Cheik Tiote of Newcastle, got himself sent off in the 24th minute of their local derby versus Sunderland. What was his score?

Answer: -2 points

Cheik, you are too rough on the edges! He did get 1 point for playing the 24 minutes, but lost 3 points for that foolish red card. A total score of 1-3=-2 points and a suspension meant he had to be transferred out.
7. In my Fantasy Football game, a striker gets 1 point for playing under 60 minutes and 2 points for playing over 60 minutes. 1 point is deducted for conceding a yellow card. My striker, Bafetimbi Gomis of Swansea, received 1 point for his performance in their 0-0 draw at Liverpool. Which of the following statement is DEFINITELY true?

Answer: Impossible to tell

There is not enough data in the question body to determine the scenario leading to Gomis receipt of the single point. It could be that he played over 60 minutes and conceded a yellow card, however it is also possible that he played less than 60 minutes.
8. In my Fantasy Football game, a striker gets 1 point for playing less than 60 minutes, 2 points for playing over 60 minutes and 4 points for scoring a goal. My striker, Christian Benteke of Liverpool, scored in the 77th minute giving a 1-0 win over Norwich. He did not receive any bonus points though. His point tally for that match was DEFINITELY 6.

Answer: False

The fact that Benteke scored in the 77th minute does not mean he played over 60 minutes. For example, he could have been introduced as a substitute in the 60th minute. Hence, using the question data, we cannot be certain whether he gathered 5 points or 6 fantasy points in that game.
9. In my Fantasy Football game, a striker gets 1 point for playing less than 60 minutes, 2 points for playing over 60 minutes, 3 points per assist, 4 points per goal scored and 0 to 3 bonus points. My striker, Olivier Giroud of Arsenal, received 10 points when the Gunners beat Tottenham 2-0. Which of the following correctly describes his performance?

Answer: Played 90 minutes, 1 assist, 1 goal, 1 bonus

Going through the options:

Played 90 minutes, 2 goals, 3 bonus: 2+8+3=13 (wrong)
Played 90 minutes, 1 assist, 1 bonus: 2+3+1=6 (wrong)
Played 55 minutes, 3 assists: 1+9=10 (wrong, there were only 2 goals!)
Played 90 minutes, 1 assist, 1 goal, 1 bonus: 2+3+4+1=10 (correct)
10. In my Fantasy Football game, a striker gets 2 points for playing more than 60 minutes, 4 points per goal scored and 0 to 3 bonus points. 2 points are deducted for missing a penalty kick. A fantasy captain gets his score doubled. My captain, Sergio (Kun) Aguero of Manchester City, scored 4 goals in their 4-1 thrashing of Tottenham where he played 87 minutes. He did miss a penalty though, but that did not prevent him receiving all 3 bonus points. What was his point tally?

Answer: 38 points

It goes like this:
2 points for playing more than 60 minutes.
16 points for 4 goals.
3 bonus points.
2 points deduction for missing the penalty.
Double points for being captain.
So, (2+16+3-2)*2=38.
Always captain Aguero!
