Canada can't afford to lose to Nigeria or even draw with Nigeria either

Nigeria have some talented individuals , namely Barcelona's Asisat Oshala. They really play a wide open game from the stats and formations i saw in their past 10. The 3 - 0 win over New Zealand in April , raises a few eyebrows for sure. The New Zealand side that beat Norway today looked pretty solid. The Canadian team have lost 4 of their past 5 , albeit to USA , Brazil and France. Japan spanked us 3 - 0 in February , and it was all one way traffic. I will be rooting hard for our Cdn girls tonight , but i wouldnt risk $ on anything but an over.

I expected Spain to win this match by at least two goals. And I was almost right

I really expected Spain to win by 6 , 7 or more. Best player on the field was the Costa Rican goalie. She made 10 to 15 incredible stops , and a PK save as well. So far , and its real early , Spain are the team to beat.

Noticed the China line dropped significantly

Down to+360

They were+750 two weeks ago

I was just looking at that game. My 1st thought was Denmark all day long. There isnt much difference between the 2 sides. #13 vs #14 by FIFA rankings. If you look at the friendlies leading up to this tournament , Denmark were very impressive. A 2 - 0 loss to Spain's A team and beat #11 Japan and #3 Sweden. China lost 3 - 0 to Spain's 2nd stringers and looked average against teams that arent here. Why the big movement ?

Like most Asian teams, they will have home field advantage im sure

How much of a role Sam Kerr can physically play for Australia at the Women's World Cup remains completely uncertain.
Even if her time on the sidelines with a calf muscle injury is extended, though, Australia's iconic striker still has important role to play for the tournament co-hosts after helping to inspire the Matildas to a 1-0 opening win over Ireland on Thursday.
"Obviously losing a player like Sam, probably the best player in the world, and just for her as a person, we were completely heartbroken," said Steph Catley, who scored the 52nd-minute penalty that secured Australia's win in front of a record crowd. "We had to gather ourselves pretty quickly, but we used her spirit and used the fact that she wasn't able to be out there with us to help us push on. And I think that's what it's going to take for as long as maybe she misses."

No doubt

Weird not one game where both teams have scored yet.Could be profitable going forward

Wow ! I hadnt even noticed

[johnnyvegas13]

Under r 6-0 so far

something to think about

[beefcake]

I watched most of the china game.Could make a case they were better side for most of it.They should roll haiti and def put up a hell of a fight vs england.Line movement on china was justified IMO ..just bad result..good stout midfield they got

Lets go Swedes!!

Interesting!

something to think about

Japan / Zambia O3.5 @ 1.98 ( 5 - 0 final ) So 5 - 1

I was shocked that both England and USA were held in check by far inferior foes. With goals scored being a #1 priority in tie breakers , i think that will change in the 2nd round of games.

[franz555]

Netherlands vs Portugal : 3:30am est

Netherlands -1 @ 1.98 ( 3 units )

What tiebreakers are either of those teams concerned with? They will win all 3 group games they play, they don't need to crush their souls on he scoreboard. The teams concerned with the goal differential are the ones playing them, hence why vietnam with with their most defensive lineup. If another team in the group tries to be a hero and open up against the USA that will only benefit them.

Lets assume that USA and Netherlands were to draw against each other. Winning the Group , and playing a 2nd place team in the knockout stage , will be decided by goal differential. Teams like Vietnam , Costa Rica and Zambia etc , know full well that they cant get into a gun fight with a Pop gun. Goals matter HUGE

Youre so right. Plenty of surprises already. Its getting tough to back favs , the gap has narrowed

Wild predictions (No plays):

Germany/Morocco draw (+750)
Germany/Morocco exact score: 1-1 (+1600)

Argentina ML (1st half) (+525)

Columbia/South Korea exact score: 2-2 (+1500)

Let me know your thoughts.

Germany down a few key players could certainly lead to that draw but the women's team doesn't underperform like the men have sadly done lately.

Agreed that the colombia game could be fairly high scoring

[franz555]

Germany are healthy and not missing any key players , as the 6 - 0 score would indicate


Brazil vs Panama 7am est

Brazil -1.5 @ 1.89 ( 2 units )

Just Lena Oberdorf, a top 10 player in the entire tourney, they dominated anyway

Fair enough. She would have a big impact in the center of the pitch.

Man korea getting hammered like china did by bettors..Not really any value anymore..still think there better..guess well see
