Nice work Kid.

Nice effort from the US, but I have no idea what the Panama coach was thinking. They played right into the US hands. Guess that is why they are Panama!

No clue. That?s an awful ?road game plan? for a team when a draw was a good result for them tonight. I don?t get it 🤷🏼*♀️

-22.3* I cant believe I didn?t get both sides of this game. Last second goal was ridiculous. Keeper distributes with 30 seconds left to middle of field , turns ball over.. foul leads to goal.. awful decisions. Guess that?s why they are bottom..

Couple of huge line moves I will tag along with in Europe.

Belgium +110
Cyprus +.5 +115

Both these MLs have moved $50+. Greece was -185 now -135. Belgium was +160 yesterday now close to even in some places.

Just small plays based on these moves.

Great end to the Dutch game to get the win and the over.

Don't like much tomorrow. Going to play Poland Ov 2.5 -135. With Poland just needing a draw the over does not look like a great play. However, Montenegro has to win this game to have any chance so they have to play a wide open game which should create a lot of chances. Only other I will consider is Germany. The win give them a perfect qualification which I am not sure has ever happened. Still trying to confirm but I can't remember it happening. They are a little rich at -3.5 so I will see if comes down to 3.

Adding a Scotland FH draw -105. Ridiculous price, but I see both of these teams playing very, very conservative in the FH and waiting for the second half to take chances.

AND, I am reiterating how much I hate Fox Sports. They are showing the England game, which is completely meaningless. They have been kissing the Premier League's ass in Euro and now this. They suck!!

Their contract is with the Bundesliga. I believe they are fully pandering to the Premier League to help them get the TV rights in 2021. Or they think the only way they get ratings is to have English teams on. I don't know, but if you want to cover soccer correctly you need to show the best games. They also screw around with FS2 which most people do not get due to their ongoing spat with Comcast. Tomorrow is a great example. Most of the people will not be able to watch Wales/Ireland on TV. I will have to watch it on the computer. I also hate that they act like they are there at the games live when they are announcing from the studio. I watch more games on the latin channels than I do on regular TV. Latin package is a must if you want to watch as many games as possible.

Will have my thoughts up on Euro shortly.

Tomorrow is a very interesting day in Euro as we have two huge meaningful games: Wales vs Ireland and Ukraine vs Croatia.

Ireland has to win to have any chance to get into the playoff and Wales needs at least a draw. However, Wales is at the bottom of the second place standings and it is possible that they do not get a spot with a draw so they have to be thinking of winning this game. They have not lost a game in qualifying, so I will happily take them in a Pk -140.

I almost always like the Ukraine at home as it is a very difficult place to play. We also have a very talented Croatia team they simply struggles on the road and they really screwed themselves with a 1-1 draw to Finland. I do not trust them to turn it around here. I will take the Ukraine Pk +105 and sprinkle a little on the +185

Two smaller plays:

Albania +1 -140
Finland Pk +120/+210

I think Italy has mailed it in since they are locked into a playoff spot. Albania will play for a result and really like getting a goal as I doubt Italy wins by more than a goal.

Turkey blew it at home with a 3-0 beating by Iceland. I really do not see how they will get up for this game, while Finland will play to the end as they did with Croatia.

I will work on South America tomorrow but I may not play anything there as I think it will be a total shit show given the standings. Would not rule out some foul play/preferential referreeing going on here as the powerhouses seem to choke almost every game and the Federation wants some of those teams in the Cup. It is very hard seeing a World Cup without Argentina and Columbia.

I do not have as much faith as Kid does in the Dutch, but I do believe there will be goals tomorrow. If you can get the FH Ov 1, I would definitely take it and I am on the Ov 3 -110 for the match. No way the Dutch win 7-0 to advance but they will try initially. I think it opens things up for Sweden who could still win the group if four some reason France draws. Could slow down in the second half but should be a wide open first half. Likely my only play in Euro tomorrow.

I agree with Kid on Panama and I am not playing the US game.

I sucked today. Congrats to Croatia and Ireland, huge wins on the road. How great would a Ireland vs Northern Ireland playoff be? Doubt it happens, but would be very interesting. Poor Slovakia finishes in 9th and is out of the playoff.

I am only playing the Dutch game overs tomorrow. I am a little worn out and need to focus a little more on the restaurants so I am taking a little break from the heavy capping. Will still look and post if I see anything I really like, but with all these games it takes a lot of time to try to accurately cap. Plus, I like playing the baseball playoffs so that is taking time also. Too much going on.

I think you will see a lot of what you saw in Europe today in South America tomorrow. There were 7 0-0 draws in the first half out of the 9 games and then some scoring in the second half as games opened up. Teams simply do not want to get down a goal early. The South American games will be a war tomorrow. I may have to go out and get another computer so I can watch most of them at the same time!!

Bason, again, thanks for your time. Don't let a bad day get you down, but if you are running out of time we would certainly understand if you couldn't post as much.


Having said that, I'll be looking forward to your next post/plays.
