    Spain vs. Tahiti O/U 8.5
    O 8.5 +101
    U 8.5 - 116

    Is this a joke? Del Bosque said his team would not hold back otherwise it would be disrespectful..He did say, that they plan on playing reserves ..which would be Torres, Mata, Navas, Carzola..their reserve team would probably be top 15 in the world. Nigeria missed a ton of opportunities yet they won 6-1..shouldn't this be 10+ goal win for spain? anyone else think this should be pounded and then some

    Nigeria could have been more motivated knowing that goal difference might be a factor for them progressing, where Spain won't really need to rely on GD.

    But then again, even a Spain B squad is high quality like you said. And how hard do they even have to try to get 9 goals?? They normally keep possession and do not run up the score, but this is a complete mismatch so that does not apply I feel.

    I hope Tahiti can put one in the net against Spain. Can you imagine how wild they will go

      Lol. Their reserve team is probably top-5 in the world. I am just not sure how they would feel putting up so many goals against the poor amateurs. If I knew they would be playing at full speed, I would lay half of my bank on the over for sure.

        "Del Bosque and midfielder Andres Iniesta said Spain would not hold back. They said doing so would show a lack of respect for Tahiti"

        I'm as hesitant as you lol...but I think i'm ultimately gonna go for 5 units

              Spain probably will stop scoring after 10 or so

                          absolutely agree, NGA could of scored double digits, if SPA plays on at least 50% of their capability they should hit it easily

                              spain ML, lock of the millenium. $1000 to win $10.

                              there's honestly no value in this game for me. I wanted the (American) books to hang anything under 7.

                              ended up playing over and -8 for action. hopefully they don't let up.

                                    one thing i learned when it comes to soccer you do not know what to expect. i see bad teams winning or drawing against other teams all the time. yeah, i know the situation calls for -8 and over 8.5 but this is soccer. it's kind of like baseball only even more unpredictable.

                                    i'm not touching this one. good luck to those who have action.

                                        Was hoping to see a Spain Team Total other than the BS 5Dimes put up for Over 3.5 @ -3000. Although I guess playing the Over for the match is the same thing in essence. Over 7.5 at -200.

                                            How about this one? Have to believe Spain come out and put one in pretty quick.

                                            Spain / Tahiti 1st goal 0-10 minutes -175
                                            Spain / Tahiti 1st goal 11-20 minutes +315
                                            Play them both to break even or make peanuts if it is 11-20 and make a decent profit if 0-10. Is there really any chance this is scoreless at the 20 minute mark?

                                              2nd unit starring Mata, Villa and Torres. To have such worries.

                                                Why would you play the over 8.5 when you can take Spain handicap? Tahiti will not score a goal.

                                                  I think Spain scores double digits

                                                  It's going to be difficult for them NOT to score IMO

                                                              Spain / Tahiti 1st goal 0-10 minutes -175

                                                              Play them both to break even or make peanuts if it is 11-20 and make a decent profit if 0-10. Is there really any chance this is scoreless at the 20 minute mark?
                                                              Frikin' wait and then frikin' 5Dimes goes down so I can't get the plays in.
