U.S. vs Russia: What's the Play?

[Semper Fidelis]

Of course I want us to win, but I also am realistic and know that Russia is on another level than us. Being in Russia, will that make them even more motivated to play harder for a win? Or are friendlies pretty much stay-away games because it's hard to gauge their motivation? I typically don't like betting on them, but wanted to see if any of you have a lean one way or the other.

Russia 9/1

Leaning on Russia

russia isnt that good

russia isnt that good

But USA is even worse. Don't think they are going to score there. But I don't know anything about the lineups now.

Russia is a very good team. Besides, Kerzhakov is in great form with 10 goals in 11 games for Zenit in the league this year. Also, even though it's a friendly game, Capello is still undefeated as Russia coach, and I think he'd like to keep it that way. Russia offers great value at 1.65, and I'm going for it.

Under 2.5 probably...could see 0-0, 1-0 or 1-1 game

[sweepem]

Russia should win in a low scoring game 1-0 or 2-0. Can't see many goals in this match.

Taking the under cause I refuse to bet against USA lol

[Kira]

it will depend on how Russia play this game. Russia are a conservative team under Capello, but we all know that it's just a friendly match, so they could decide to go all out / attack-minded.

[ZachShalack420]

Of course a goal 9 min in... lol i hate soccer

[ZachShalack420]

1-nil Russia half. What a Sh!tfest of a game..

[ZachShalack420]

I have probably dropped 20 units to soccer, I think I won once. I would like to thank Semper for making this thread and getting me to take the under. I am now officially done with soccer. It's just too random, almost like the slot machines of Sports Betting..

If you see me here again, flame the F**K outta me!
