In the end, the inspired David Abagna pick carries the day for the Wakas
(it was a totally deliberate pick, and not a desperate last-minute
attempt to find any starting Waka midfielder to put in the lineup...)

Here my data looks a bit different - I got Jagiellonia's Kristoffer
Hansen as a midfielder, and Søren Rieks, too, while Víkingur's Karl Friðleifur Gunnarsson is a defender, which should make room in the
line-up for his teammate Nikolaj Hansen.

On the other hand, Deniz Hümmet used to play for the Turkish U-21, so he shouldn't count against Viking efficiency.

Yes, you are right on all counts. Must have been the early morning hour
that made me mess up things. The Vikings' efficiency score takes a minor
hit.

+ Nice's Jérémie Boga (also FW), who's an Ivorian international.

Correct here too, but no impact on the Wakas' score
