What is it with the last 10 minutes of soccer matches

Duff85 · 03-18-12, 04:33 AM

GCU game? Fun for unders backers i'm guessing.

Tends to be because the team behind throws more risky attacks forward... so either get a goal or they allow a goal. Can't really explain why it happens in multiples though, but you are right.

ProfaneReality · 03-18-12, 04:34 AM

yep that was the most recent one

aceking · 03-18-12, 04:41 AM

its like nba , 1 minute left and they can have 20 free throws .

Wiesnak · 03-18-12, 09:17 AM

its because soccer is fake, results for most games in big leagues and big tournaments are decided before the match so if its 0-0 or 1-0 minute 80 it means nothing if the script is written for a high scoring game... the goals will come, all they need is about 30 seconds to make a goal for either side, even if the worst team plays the best...

Watch out guysth, this genius has it all figured out.

Soccer is very physically demanding. If you analyze games from 1-15, 16-30,31-45, 45-60,61-75,75-90 and you will see that many teams loose the most goals in the last 15min.

ProfaneReality · 03-18-12, 05:19 PM

sounds like I need a site that has 1st half on all these obscure shit leagues im betting at 4am

MUHerd37 · 03-18-12, 05:27 PM

Real Madrid just allowed a goal at 92' and tie. I'm fukkin pissed! Killed 2 great parlays. Fukk these guys! Hold a team scoreless for 92' and then allow a goal? Fukkin bullshit.

well, they couldn't have done anything about it to be honest

benrama · 03-18-12, 05:56 PM

That was a very suspicious end to that real Madrid game, real just couldn't care out there, we're giving Malaga the majority of possession, turning the ball over at will and their finishing was b-grade. I'm not one to think these things are rigged but sometimes you wonder

crblahblah · 03-18-12, 06:01 PM

There were 2 clear penalties not given to Real and nearly every call was against them the entire match. This is only their 2nd non-win in 22 league games and 2nd time not scoring at least 3 goals in 16 home games. Weird.

If something is insane than it are the daily fixes in the NBA.

MUHerd37 · 03-18-12, 06:33 PM

Yes, true that was a hell of a kick. Ronaldo had a free kick earlier from a little bit further out and missed by 40 fukkin feet. I had it in 2 huge parlays that were almost sure wins. The hard shit was done with I believe. I thought about throwing a bit on the tie but didn't. The last few days have been killing me.

JOHON8 · 03-18-12, 09:32 PM

The best thing you can do is hedge your bets live. If you're getting screwed constantly after the 80th, then hedge it at the 80th using live odds.

Also if you've played a full match of soccer, like I have, you'd know that psychology wise, players tend to both play harder and give up goals easier in the last minutes. In fact a lot of match fixing occurs early in the game, where a goal is scored early instead of risking it late.

BigDofBA · 03-18-12, 11:52 PM

I have wonder this two.

There have been games in which I have had the under. it's 0-0 in the 87th minute, I go take a shit, I get back just in time to see someone score to make it 2-1 in extra time. I'm like wtf???

Its almost like teams start letting the other team score.

DarkNite · 03-19-12, 12:30 AM

No wonder. We have to think who is behind the scene, who has the whistle? Then anything can happen. I have the same thing many times around. Now I can figure out, what way I have to go for.

This is the biggest factor. Sometimes, the teams don't get the damn thing, who is going to win as expected, but think of how to fill the stomach.

Masu485 · 03-19-12, 12:36 AM

It's kind of like pulling your goalie in Hockey. In soccer, if you're losing and it's near the end of the game, why not move midfielders and defenders into more attacking positions? I've even seen goalkeepers leave their nets in order to go up for a corner kick. If the attacking strategy works, then that's a goal, if not, and the other team counterattacks, there won't be much of a defense to stop them. Boom goals.

Gee · 03-19-12, 12:51 AM

It is fairly common in soccer.

You only need to look at the live odds that euro books offer for o/u 0.5 goals in 15 min intervals.

75 - 90(+injury time) is by far the shortest for o/0.5 - by a long, long way. That should tell you something on its own...

Its particularly common (and frustrating) in A-League. I haven't gone through and looked at each game, but there have been a LOT of late goals scored.

Nick Papageorgio · 03-19-12, 01:16 AM

Been getting fked on unders by injury time goals for 5 years!!!

LostBankroll · 03-19-12, 02:04 AM

this always happens

TheMoneyShot · 03-19-12, 02:11 AM

Um... I have a solution... start betting the overs.

Domestic · 03-19-12, 02:13 AM

Soccer totals, just like hockey totals will drive you insane.

Lookingtostart · 03-19-12, 02:31 AM

This is a common thing in soccer and always has been.

diggnation+TRS · 03-19-12, 02:56 AM

I actually wait for these last minute goals to happen and immediately bet under thru live betting. Definitely low odds but the possibility of losing is very low as well.

MoneyLineDawg · 03-19-12, 02:59 AM

Teams that are down start to press up and get very aggressive, this allows for easy counter attacks for the leading team

Also, later in the game guys start to get tired physically and mentally which can allow easy opportunities

I don't trust most soccer and don't bet it (except for really big matches and the World Cup).....But that's all I can think of

Phillth · 03-19-12, 07:20 AM

Here is why I only bet overs is soccer: for the under to hit you only have 3 possible outcomes. 0, 1, or 2 goals scored. For the over to hit you have 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, etc. Significantly more possibilites. Betting on totals is over or no bet.

Ace_of_Spades · 03-19-12, 07:30 AM

Stay away from the A-League.

P.S. That Malaga FK was hands down the best free kick i have ever seen. Incredible shot to the top of the corner. Real are dumb for thinking they could sit on a 1-0 lead.

MUHerd37 · 03-21-12, 05:45 PM

Real Madrid does it for the 2nd straight game. Allowed a game tying goal at 83'. Then they got 2 red cards. Shady as fukk.
