Over the past 495' of football in Finland, these fvckin bums have scored 2 goals, total.

The goals are out there somewhere, let's find them in the 2nd half.

Yeah it's crazy poor, no team score anything, better to stay off the League, obviously once you start not betting on this league, the goal will start to rain.....

I made a bet on Lahti Akatemia - Klubi 04 over 3.5 and 4.5, it's 0 - 0 after 63 minutes.

Lahti average 3.33 goals per game and klubi 04 average 2.5 goals away, and yet no goals. this is crazy.

Got a real barn burner going though in the KTP match at 1-0. Tied for highest scoring match this week in Finland. Oh and KTP hasn't scored a single goal in 3 matches

Over six matches, 0.5 goals per match.

this has to be the worst league there is as far as scoring.

Argentina can get pretty bad too. There was a 7 or 8 game slate a couple of weeks ago where every game was either 0-0 or 1-0

When you see them playing you will not wonder why again. They can't play soccer and they lack effort.

ARG is traditionally low scoring, but not because they can't play, it's because they play a very defensive-minded soccer and act very rough on the defensive end.

Another weird thing about Finland is that the 2nd tier (ykkonen) seems to have much more scoring than the top tier. All ykkonen teams are averaging between 2.5 and 3.25 total goals per game so far. One would think if the top tier had such little attacking talent that the 2nd tier would as well, but maybe they can't play defense either.

Exactly. The difference betweend the first two leagues is that the second league is much worse on defense than the first.
