Some notes: First of all, the tie of the round is obviously the all-Balkan hookup between Sarajevo and Sartid Smederevo. No chance of crowd trouble at that one, no siree. Secondly, the name of the Armenian League runners-up, Shirak, is the same as the command word for Raistlin's light spell in the Dragonlance novels (See, you're much smarter now!).
