England/Belgium Both Teams to Score -192

[SportsPedagogy]

I was looking at previous championships and third places matches in world cup history and noticed that the championships tend to end in low scoring draws and the third places matches tend to be high scoring. I am no soccer expert but I imagine thats because players dont try too hard in the third place match. That being said, a quick history of the third place match:

2014: Netherlands 3-0 Brazil
2010: Uruguay 2-3 Germany
2006: Germany 3-1 Portugal
2002: South Korea 2-3 Turkey
1998: Holland 1-2 Croatia
1994: Sweden 4-0 Bulgaria
1990: Italy 2-1 England
1986: Belgium 2-4 France
1982 - Poland 3-2 France
1978 - Brazil 2-1 Italy
1974 - Brazil 0-1 Poland
1970 - Uruguay 0-1 Germany
1966 - Portugal 2-1 Soviet Union
1962 - Chile 1-0 Yugoslavia
1958 - West Germany 3-6 France
1954 - Uruguay 1-3 Austria
1938 - Sweden 2-4 Brazil
1934 - Germany 3-2 Austria

Interesting to note, English Striker Harry Kane has 6 goals and Belgium Striker Romelu Lukaku has 4 goals, putting them at the top of the leader board to win the gold boot. It looks like its Kanes to lose, but if Lukaku scores first, it could become very interesting.

I am interested in what the people who follow national soccer a lot more than me have to think.

I’d personally wait for the line ups, some over here in England believe Harry Kane was injured during the Croatia game, it should be high scoring, being a meaningless game but like I said, I’d wait for team news.

Line ups are out, Kane and Lukaku both start, I can’t see belgium not scoring, England do have goalscorers on the pitch, just depends on what sort of mood the players want to play with, belgium ML at 2.25 looks good imo.

England have a patched up midfield today with only Trippier being a regular starter ( not sure he is 100% ). Its basically Belgiums " A " team , so i fully expect them to score...... England ?

BOL

thanks guys. I got lucky. I got my times switched up and didn't get that bet in.
I made small plays on Belgium, over 3, England to win 2-1 and Belgium to win 2-1 lol but much smaller loses than I was going to get if i jumped on Both to Score.
Do they normally pull lots of people at the half or is this something new ?

It’s because it’s a meaningless game, both sides lost their semi finals so there’s no margin for error in this game, England had chances and on another day they would’ve both scored buts its a dangerous game to bet on because you don’t know what the players mind set is.

A lot more margin for error sorry.

Harry Kane checked out,he could have easily gotten two goals.
