Yesterday 5-2 +590, overall 68-66 +1,265
Well it really is satisfying to wake-up and see the score in your favor...despite what I've read and heard about how Mexico played. It was the perfect final score for me. Brazil did what I expected but I honestly thought Belgium would get 1 goal and it came close so many times ruining a sweep in that group of plays.
Today I find to be a really challenging set of games to cap and I need to distance my emotions from my calculations and I'll explain.
I'm taking Turkey despite everything in my mind screaming no! I am aware of injuries, home crowd and so on but I'm telling you this Turkish team is playing good football right now and will prevail in regulation time forget about OT. If I'm wrong it will be embarassing but I think I have the right side here. Taking the over because I don't think Japan will get shut out here and it stands to reason then it'll be at least 2-1 if I'm correct.
Turkey ML +215
Turkey over 2' +115
Turkey to advance +130 (inc. Golden Goal and PK)
This one reminds me of the England-Denmark game. I think we have yet to see the Italians play but now with single elimination you're going to see Italian football. Again, I see it done in regulation time and again I cannot see S. Korea being shut out.
Italy -140
Italy over 2' +120
Italy to advance -250 (inc. Golden Goal and PK)
