    Yeah, those are some sobering facts about the WC history and they are stopping me from going large on France ML, and the line has moved too much anyways. But this has been a pretty wild ride, probably one of the most unexpected WCs ever. I still think Croatia will lose by >1 goals. I think their D is overrated and Giroud gotta score, eventually. .

    GL with your 3rd place bets. I am not touching that one with a 50-foot pole.

    World Cup Final


    France v Croatia


    1. France -1 @ 3.05/+205 (1 Unit)


    3 straight extra time games including 2 PK for Croatia has to take its toll. France are 1.9 years on average younger than Croatia and come into the game with an extra day of rest. Croatia have not kept a clean sheet versus weaker opposition than who France went up against. France have kept 4 clean sheets in the tournament thanks to brilliant play by Kante & Lloris. Croatia made a nation proud but it would take a miracle of epic proportions or a French massive implosion for them to lift the trophy.

    Good play. Really wanted to take France ML and overs, but chickened out at the last minute - just did not want to drive to Vegas. Now I am kicking myself. Gonna be kicking myself for a long, long time.

    Thanks for the thread, it was entertaining. And congrats.

    No way, Jose. I hope DJ will be back for some of the other leagues before the next world cup starts.
