WCQ going to put this in early. Going to put to test the idea that it?s hard to win on the road in concacaf

Honduras 5* to win 5*
Australia 3.3* to win 3*

I think aussie advances but loses first leg. I?ll add to Aussie to qualify if I like odds if they do lose game 1.

One thing i know for sure. Honduras Australia was just a terrible, awful soccer game. Horrible to watch and with that said , that makes the USA national team even more embarrassing. Couldn?t finish ahead of this Honduras team? Awful

I put in Peru today -1.5 -130. They should win this game handily as they went through the motions in New Zealand.

Hopefully is setting up for a big week as I have already laid a lot of money. Laying some juice but I do not see Italy, Australia or Peru losing these games.

Yes they do. Having a hard time seeing them lose or tie this game today. I hit the -185 pretty hard when it came out, I now see -215 most places. This is one where I am willing to lay the juice as 1-0 and extra time is a real possibility.

Italy has to win today, no?:shrug:

Yes. And because away goal rule is applied Italys situation is dire still: if Sweden scores one, Italy needs three. 2-1 or any one goal win but 1-0 = Italy is out. 1-0 and game goes to extra time/penalties. BUT away goal rule still stands until 30 min extra time is played (no golden goal here).

I was thinking Italy to qualify -110 , my prediction Italy 2 - mammas pojkars 0.


WC 2018 wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018_FIFA_World_Cup_qualification
In knockout format, the team that has the higher aggregate score over the two legs progresses to the next round. In the event that aggregate scores finish level, the away goals rule is applied, i.e. the team that scored more goals away from home over the two legs progresses. If away goals are also equal, then thirty minutes of extra time are played, divided into two fifteen-minutes halves. The away goals rule is again applied after extra time, i.e. if there are goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score is still level, the visiting team qualifies by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals are scored during extra time, the tie is decided by penalty shoot-out (regulations Article 20.9).[17]


i think this one is worth watching

cheers :0008

About as exciting a goalless 1st half can get. Italy dominating possession and shot attempts.

It was a disgusting game and effort. Italian coach is simply atrocious. Has no idea who to play.

If Australia does not win Wednesday I am out until the World Cup!

I am on the same page with Kid on this game. Do not see more than a goal and could see another 0-0 match. Just got a feeling that the Irish somehow pull something out of their ass and get a 1-0 victory. I am not playing the game given what I have risked tomorrow, but if I were, I would probably play a FH draw and the under.

I already hate Fox with a passion, but I can not believe they hired Arena to come into the studio. Plus, I can not believe Arena has the ego to accept. Lalas's skin had to be crawling. To me, this is a total slap in the face to US soccer fans. Fox is a fucking disgrace. I know it is a small thing, but this kind of shit really pisses me off. Only in the US can you be a complete failure at your job and then be asked to be an expert. If you really think about it, you realize how truly absurd it is.

Bason, I 100% agree. I think I'll watch most of the World Cup on Telemundo next year :mj07:

Sorry lads my country men were piss poor. At the end of the day, quality in finishing and passing showed through. I to will be watching the Danes with interest in Russia. Although my overall interest is not high in following the WC.

Ericksen was fucking class!!!

GL Guys!

Honduras was horrible once again. Australia wasn't so great either but they got the W and move on. Needed that one.
