    Uruguay-Italy Under 2.5
    Uruguay even with their strong attack has had trouble scoring for some time including qualifications and I don't think they will be able to break the Italian defense. Italy also misisng Balotelli up front and might play youngsters. This looks like a 1-0 or 1-1 game.

      i dig the simple analysis of URG ITA

      Under seems good.. and in most high pressure matches... under seems to be more common.. not like in Group stages..
      But then again... this is sort of a bs game with no pressure. so.... its not like a final where each team can't afford to mess up. the flow might accelerate here.... and if so... it could have lots of attack.

      if this was a final.. id be supporting that all the way.
      im not sure if ill pass or not.

      ---
      before I checked the odds.. i was thinking Italy would have been favoured .. and thus i would bet on URG. this game being in South America should give Urg the edge

        With you on the under. Leaning Uruguay after coach Prandelli said that 3rd place is pointless.

            Uruguay +0 @1.76 is a lock imho (and I'm Italian).

            Italy without motivation is a piss poor team.
            We also have some missings players and Giaccherini is doubtful.

              I'm on Uruguay ML. Last game against Brazil they played well. I Think they will come away with the W in this game.

                      Yes I have, why, do you think they will be treating this similarly to the Spain game?

                      ITALY: BUFFON, MAGGIO, CHIELLINI, ASTORI, DE SCIGLIO, CANDREVA, GILARDINO, EL SHAARAWY, DE ROSSI, MONTOLIVO, DIAMANTI

                      URUGUAY: MUSLERA, LUGANO, GODIN, GARGANO, RODRIGUEZ, SUAREZ, FORLAN, M. PEREIRA, AREVALO, CAVANI, CACERES

                        Add in the fact this game is in South America I like Uruguay here after the way they lost to Brazil. Italy is the definition of arrogance in european soccer. If they get carded for flopping I may think they are at least trying, but I don't see any effort given by them here.

                          I think all the reasons it here tend to lean towards a higher scoring game, honestly. Average number of goals scored in this third place game over the past 5 years is 5.3 goals per game. Uruguay aren't a traditional "national power" so beating Italy and getting third place would be a good accomplishment in a way. Also with their number one squad against an Italy team without their field general in Pirlo out there makes it difficult to call.

                            saw the first half 1-0 italy so far. This one should cash easily and Uruguay will likely try to equalize in the 2nd half and be forced to attack and if they score at 1-1 both teams likely play careful not to concede. This one should cash easily at this point.

                              It honestly should be 0-0, that was a fluke goal that went in as the goalkeeper decided to let it cross and set up a goal kick instead of risking grabbing it. It was a fluke play and will probably be on the bloopers

                                1-1. Doubt both teams want extra time, especially the Italians. Should have another goal before full time.

                                  I'm with you Vasili, I say one more goal comes in this half. Probably near the end when the fatigue is really setting in on both sides, especially Italy.

                                        looked that way games been fairly open 16 to go surprised if we don't see a 4th goal

                                                More entertaining than the Spain/Italy snoozefest in the semis. Hopefully the final is more of the same.

                                                  Since it looks like it will go to extras, glad the over could hedge my Uruguay ML bet.

                                                    Not sure what you mean, all bets are final @ end of regulation, with the exception of "Team A (or B) wins 3rd place". If you had over 3.5 or less then you cashed. ML bet is lost.

                                                      Um since I lost the Uruguay ML bet with it going to extras, the bet I had on over 2.5 cashes and therefore cancels out my ML bet.

                                                        Gotcha, I misread your post. Reading is fundamental .

                                                          I actualy placed a bet on Cavani not to score. it was a joke bet really..
                                                          and he scored twice .. owell no loss


                                                          However.. WAT A Friggin game.. was that good or wat.. i didn't really care who won. wanted italy to lose. .but nice game and penalties.

                                                          Spain final.. SPAIN Is soo boring. hope brazil punishes them
