USMNT out managed again. Dominated the 1H and then went to the Try Not To Lose playbook.

They would have easily won 2-1 or 3-1 if they maintained 1H playing style.

Agreed

Argentina vs Saudi Arabia : 5am est

Argentina - 1.5 @ 1.58 ( 3 units )
Argentina - 1.5 @ 1.56 ( 2 units )
Argentina -1 1st half @ 2.30 ( 2 units )

If you look at Argentina's last warm up game before the tournament , it should give a sneak preview of what to expect tomorrow against Saudi Arabia. They put their foot to the pedal and blasted U.A.E. 5 - 0 with a 4 goal effort in the 1st half. They owned 69% of possession and dominated without allowing a shot on goal or even a sniff of hope. With the big lead , several starters were taken off at halftime to spare U.A.E a lot more humiliation.

Adding :

Over 1 1st half @ 1.60 ( 3 units )

Because it’s 900 degrees in Qatar in the summer.

Adding : Halftime ( 1 - 0 )

Over 2.5 @ 1.70 ( 3 units )

Saudi Arabia's back 4 are playing a very high line. Argentina recognized it right away and played balls over the top , resulting in 3 goals called back due to offside. The only thing they need is a bit of patience and this game will explode in an Argentine goal fest

**lakerboy** · 11-22-22, 06:12 AM

It's tied. Unreal

Argentina take Saudi to lightly

I took over 2.75 pregame and man it seemed like this one wasn't going to get there with all the offsides calls on Argentina. Now that Saudi Arabia just got a goal I feel better about that over.

Omg

**miaplus3** · 11-22-22, 06:18 AM

Can't tell me that the Saudi's aren't the aggressors

You have to laugh of course the Saudis where professionally trained and where going to have good work rate, Argentina just expected them to roll over.

The way they slowly wandered out for 2H looked that way.

**TheLock** · 11-22-22, 06:22 AM

That last Saudi goal was a rocket GOLAZO

**miaplus3** · 11-22-22, 06:31 AM

This brothers, is a very entertaining game no matter who you got.

**miaplus3** · 11-22-22, 06:34 AM

Live total at 4 at the 69 min mark, crazy. Seems to beg betting over, but I'm sitting it out.

Opti, you think the Aussies follow the Saudis' lead? Put the Frogs on a skittle?

**lakerboy** · 11-22-22, 07:19 AM

I cleaned up on this game live.

LOL, not really.

But I did say to a friend that the Saudi performance bodes well for us, as we usually beat them in Asian comps.

Can only hope.

Probably just take Aussies over 0.5 for interest

Might have a small bet on Garang Kuol to score any time at longshot odds. Young kid who might come on 2nd half who scores most games as a super-sub.

Argentina is your team ?

**slayer14** · 11-22-22, 07:28 AM

Australia could shock the world they are physical team like the Arabians

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 11-22-22, 07:29 AM

Wow what an upset but Argentina seems to always choke in the WC lately.

Yes but I took Saudi Arabia+220 live when they were up and under 3.5+130. Money comes first bro.

**lakerboy** · 11-22-22, 07:33 AM

I wouldn't make too much of this game. Argentina needed to get that streak out of the way. It's not ideal but this will be a good wake up call.

The weight of the world will be on them and Messi next game.

Yes and they will beat mexico.

Will Argentina even qualify for quarter final

They should but nothing seems to be easy for this Argentina side in the World Cup the past few decades.

Good luck on those games. Argentina is my team. I hope they start this thing great. Denmark is solid. Like Jack said the cat is out of the bag.

So , as you said here , you couldnt get a bet on Argentina ( your team ) because the line moved away from you as DJ stated. Then , with Argentina all over Saudi Arabia ( 75% possession , numerous scoring chances etc ) you made bets on Saudi and the under to " clean up ".

If you say so
