    Ecuador HUGE comeback

    Australia up 3-0 at halftime

    Ecuador wins 3-4

    How does that happen? I realize it's a friendly but it still means a lot to these countries. What were the live odds for Ecuador to win down 3-0?

    Friendly or not that's a massive comeback. Down 3-0 till 57 minute mark and winning is very sick.

    pretty embarrassing stuff for Aussies

    the halftime odds of Ecuador winning would have to be astronomical

    Whats up RR
    Even more insane when 11 minutes passed in 2h and still 3-0

    Never dark side, even if Spain played the last 35 minutes.

    I agree...seeing those odds and placing that bet are two different things
    odds of me placing that bet are pretty much zero

    We may not have a choice...with the changing demographics of the country and with the NFL turning into touch football....look for soccer to be huge here in the next 15 to 20 years.

    Thanks!. Thinking bout how I " shoulda " placed Ecuador in there, then I'd be waiting every other week for Real Madrid/ Barca to play at home coz I wouldn't risk that parlay LMAO.

    That is insane Seto

    live wagering would be five figures to one in a spot like that.

    yeah what you have to remember is that in an official match, coach only gets 3 substitutions

    but in a friendly, you can have as many substitutions as you want, most times what they do is start their best players in the first half, and replace the whole team in the second, which is why there are so many comebacks

    Yes there are more subs, but I thought international friendlies had a max 6 subs which is still a lot

    Sad day to be Australian.
    Australia is so unpredictable if anyone watches A-league. Terrible game compared ROTW.

    First keeper went out with injury, 2nd keeper saw red card, 3rd keeper had to come in. Ecuador was favorite before the game, Australia huge underdog. Odds were @67 and up. I saw a 67, but I don't have the slightest doubt that it was higher at some places at one point. Losing 3:4 after 3:0 was a surprise, but not such a massive one under these circumstances. Would I have laid money on it? Hell no.

    Hell no, it still was a massive comeback, no doubt!
    But down to 3rd keeper, being one man less, pregame underdog and in a friendly (lots of changes etc) is at least an explanation for it.
