Hints for this Quiz
Remember headlines like: "Partidazo el sábado" — it always refers to one match.
Hint: this is a single event in the schedule, not a series.
Correct: partido — a single match. In the materials it appears as "partido (encuentro deportivo)", where encuentro is a synonym for "match".
Look at the sentence: "El encuentro empieza a las 21:00." This is not a tournament.
Hint: the word literally looks like "meeting" or "encounter".
Correct: encuentro = partido (match). This pair is mentioned explicitly in the course materials: "partido (encuentro deportivo)".
Think of LaLiga: many months, many matchdays.
Correct: liga — a long competition using a round-robin system (everyone plays everyone) over the course of a season. In the vocabulary summaries, "Liga/Campeonato" are mentioned separately as types of competitions.
Think of tennis or a football cup: there is a bracket and different rounds.
Correct: torneo — an event/a series of matches with a bracket. "Copa" is one type of tournament (the pair "Copa/Torneo" appears as synonyms in the topic vocabulary).
The word reminds you of "campeón".
Correct: campeonato — a competition in which the campeón (champion) is decided. In the vocabulary lists it appears together with "Liga/Campeonato" (types of competitions).
Key idea: perder = quedar fuera (if you lose, you’re out).
Correct: eliminatoria — a knockout round (often played over two legs: ida y vuelta).
We’re talking about season standings, not a single match.
Correct: this refers to positions in the league (the season standings table).
It’s not a league event; it’s two matches that decide who goes through.
Correct: eliminatoria — a knockout stage (play‑off round), often over two legs: ida y vuelta.
