The Common Link – Football Grouping Quiz

Sort 20 cards into 5 groups of 4 sharing a common link: clubs or players. A new football puzzle every day. Free quiz with daily leaderboard. Free football quiz on Half-Time FC with 9 daily modes and leaderboards.

About this mode

The Common Link shows twenty cards to sort into five groups of four. Each group shares a connection - a club, a nationality, an honour, an era - and some cards look deliberately like they belong to two groups. Your score depends on mistakes, not time.

How to play

One tip that helps

Start with the group you are most certain about, even if it is not the most obvious: every confirmed family removes four cards and makes the rest of the board far clearer.

Quick FAQ

How many groups do I need to form?
Five groups of four cards, from the twenty on screen.
Is there a timer?
No. Only the number of mistakes counts: the fewer you make, the higher your score.
Do I need an account to play?
No. The game is free and playable straight in your browser. An account mainly helps save progress and appear on some leaderboards.
