Gas socks
A simple, no research, cascade ...
(a) When will the match be concluded (after ninety minutes, extra time or penalties)?
(b) The result?
(c) Will Constable score (excluding any penalty shootout goals)?
(d) Time of first goal (plus or minus five minutes)*
Tie break: Nearest to the away crowd.
* to avoid any argument, that is an event window t-5 to t||5: if you chose 26 minutes, then you have a window running 21-31 minutes,

]Information
For those who have only started competing recently, a Cascade means you need to get correct answers to consecutive questions, starting with the first question, to count.
For example, if you get questions 1 & 2 correct but 3 wrong you'll score two points. If you get question 1 wrong and 2 & 3 correct you'll not score any points.
(Anybody feel free to correct me if I've made a hash of explaining that.

Might be easier not to think of points but, rather, rounds
Those that get the first question right go onto the second round, those that get it wrong are eliminated ...
Those still in who get the second question right go onto the third round, those that get it wrong are eliminated ...
and so on.
So, as Geoff says, you could get (b), (c) and (d) correct, but if you got (a) wrong, that won't do you any good, because you've already been eliminated.
There's always a potential problem when everyone gets the first question wrong ... in principle, we then jump straight to the tiebreak.
