Jakopistettä

Jakopistettä is a term used in the context of Finnish football, specifically referring to the points awarded to a team for winning a match. The term is derived from the Finnish word "jakopiste," which translates to "share point." In Finnish football, points are awarded as follows: a win earns three points, a draw earns one point, and a loss earns zero points. This system is used to determine the final standings in a league, with the team accumulating the most points at the end of the season being crowned the champion. The term "jakopistettä" is often used in discussions about the fairness of the points system, as well as in debates about potential changes to the scoring system. It is also used to refer to the points awarded to a team for winning a match in other sports that use a similar points system.
