Strongly considering Togo 3rd goal team @ +600

PuckIt · 01-22-13, 11:06 AM

There have been NUMEROUS tackles in this game that would have been red cards in EPL/Serie A/Bundesliga/Liga lol.

RubberKettle · 01-22-13, 11:27 AM

TIA though. There's not much organization or technicality.

pattymayo · 01-22-13, 11:41 AM

What a fukkin tease. 2nd goal comes just before halftime now nobody can score

TheSportsAnalyst · 01-22-13, 11:43 AM

It should be called "African Cup of Unders"

PuckIt · 01-22-13, 11:46 AM

Over!

This is a tricky game IMHO: under is a logical choice but I'll watch the game and maybe put something in-play.

Correct. Wouldn't touch it.

I like Tunisia at home.

Tunisia isn't at home, the match is played in a neutral venue as the competition is held in South Africa.
This is probably one of the tightest and unpredictable matches I've ever seen, both for the bookies, media and public.
This is a huge derby and I eventually probably stay away... For sure not placing anything on any side.

Good luck though!

They aren't home pretty much a neutral location

Sportsguy clueless once again

Trolling again are we? Sorry I looked and they were listed as the home team.

The tournament is being played in South Africa.

I like South Africa to win today against Angola. +120 decent odds too.

nyyanks773 · 01-23-13, 09:39 AM

Rolling with Angola +0.5 here, I expect them to hang in their strong defensively and can even see them winning 1-0

PuckIt · 01-23-13, 10:11 AM

South africa looking strong...

TheSportsAnalyst · 01-23-13, 10:31 AM

Before game time I was very keen on Angola +0.25 but I preferred to wait at least the first 20'.
South Africa is owning the game...

PuckIt · 01-23-13, 10:47 AM

Yep after the first 10 I took South Africa to score 1st at -110, then again to score second at +135...should have had at least two that half.

nyyanks773 · 01-23-13, 10:52 AM

Despite South Africa's dominance, Angola have had a few semi-chances, haha. If south africa becomes more complacent Angola might be able to getone

RubberKettle · 01-23-13, 11:18 AM

game over, sick goal

PuckIt · 01-23-13, 11:20 AM

2-0

morocco ml -135?

nyyanks773 · 01-24-13, 09:31 AM

Any thoughts today guys?

TheSportsAnalyst · 01-24-13, 09:39 AM

No clue on the first one but it could be interesting backing Congo to win imho.
Fair price should be around 1.85/1.90 so it's worth to wait 15'-20'.

nyyanks773 · 01-24-13, 09:43 AM

Yeah, I was thinking over 2 in the first one. might play it small

TheSportsAnalyst · 01-24-13, 10:35 AM

Digging through team infos I found Niger players are pretty much from local league (!!!).
The most talented is Moussa Mazou who plays for Etoile du Sahel (TUN) and has a little european experience.

Congo stands at upper level imho: a lot of players from Mazembe (semi-finalist in the last CAF CL), the defense is made up by players which currently play at top level in France and Turkey (Mabiala is the starter for Karabukspor), midfield is a mix of experience and top-class for this level (I mean, come on, Mulumbu is a starter in Premier for WBA!!) and on offense they've LuaLua, captain Mputu, and Mbokani who's a star in Europe (his value is way up 5m€).

Even 1.80 for a win seems a tasty price.

nyyanks773 · 01-24-13, 10:45 AM

Sweet stuff S.A. , may give it a go. This Ghana - Mali game has been pretty awful so far... and Ghana up though they should have been down to 10 in the 5th min haha

TheSportsAnalyst · 01-24-13, 10:45 AM

Forgot to say the world best football simulator predict a 6-0 win for Congo!
