Ghana played well against a very good Italian side, Michael Essien looked superb and came very close to scoring. Compared to other world cups this one has went to form except for a few games. Not good for those of us who look for value bets....... , though Ghana @ circa 6/1 on Betfair...............hmmmm, maybe one to leave alone

so i chose this game to be contrary to my usual contrarian view......... :mad:

very true, if nedved could've stayed onside at the start of the 2nd half then they might have looked alittle bit lively but nvm still up (just) lol

Just put £40 on Italy to win 1.44

after their performance against croatia i think brazil are anything but dead certs, against an 'up for it' aussie side, high in confidence.

one to avoid maybe, however Australia are a tempting 14/1 on bfair :eek:

They're supposed to be resting players for this game so I can't really see there been an upset. Maybe worth a pound or two but nothing more than that.

yeah I wouldnt be surprised but its hard to believe they do this on such a stage.

still I had a little lay on Croatia so I will prob put a couple of quid on the lay again

, then another puzzler with France v South Korea .................

**** **** ****

was gonna bet as soon as they went behind but didnt dare. i did that with the czechs and they ended up beat. :mad:

cheets64 · 19 Jun 2006 at 21:45

I put in £1000 to see what it would return in profit £3750 :eek:

I backed Spain when they went behind, the odds where sky high at 70mins

Loads of people have made £1000s on this game over at Betfair.

el_dazza · 19 Jun 2006 at 22:35

15 seconds after i bet on the draw spain scored their 2nd. I give up

Balb0wa · 19 Jun 2006 at 22:45

The highest odds spain went to on betfair was 6-1.

The odds on half time Tunisia, full time Spain were 44-1

I won on over 2.5 goals, over 3.5 goals, and 13 or more corners.

My over 4.5 goals and unquoted score nearly came off.
