Turkz & Karayilan World Cup thread

[Smogs]

Are you boys still adamant Ivory Coast will fail this summer? I was leaning Portugal tomorrow, but the game has so many angles i might just leave it and watch it chilled out

[Francesco]

drogba will play 2morro ?

[Karayilan9]

Italy start slow as usual, I'm surprise they didn't exploit the wings and get crosses in, its common knowledge Paraguay keeper is hopeless in the air. The point is important though, Italy will get stronger as the competition progresses could even win it again

Smogs I have little faith in Ivory Coast, basically another Cameroon with a bit more talent, no team cohesion, selfish players, little creativity.

Then again Portugal isn't great but I feel their wingers will cause alot of trouble tomorrow.

[Vreston]

Karayilan I agree with you. I'm not sure about Ivory Coast. A team with much talent and players who play on good European teams, but are they dependable and can they work together? Cameroon had a lot of chances today but couldn't capitalize on them. You know what they say, if you don't score a goal and you miss lots of chances, the ball will punish you.
Portugal almost didn't make it in the first place. I'd like to watch the game tomorrow and form a better opinion.

As far as Brazil is concerned, I think they will take over and win with a difference, just in case they finish first together with another team in the group. They've got the talent and probably one of the best defenses they've had in years.

Here's what I'm leaning:

Since I think Brazil wins this one easily due to obvious power difference,
Brazil -2 @ 2.10
Brazil -2, -2.5 AH @ 2.025

Also since I think Brazil will be up from the first half,
Brazil to win both halves @ 1.83

[TurkzZ]

i wouldn't look to far into qualifiers, its a different story when it comes to the actual tournament and from what iv seen of Ivory Coast there still the un-organized mess they were in the African Nations cup.

Agree on Brazil, they totally dwarf n.korea in every aspect, early goal comfortable win

[Shark79]

I think there both passed out in the couch.

[brumbies]

Kara, why arent you keeping a record of your win-loss record and units won/lost like you did with the regular season?

[psulions]

anyone like France tomorrow?

[lasker]

anyone like France tomorrow?

the game is a tossup but I took the under 2.5; Mexico has a very solid defense and a superb goalie, while France are the favorites but they have been in poor form lately. The French defense is not what it once was, but Mexico's offense is not too great either. I think this game ends 1-0 or nil-nil. France is the better team but they are playing without much inspiration, but still Mexico's offense shouldn't be too threatening.

Easy money!!!

[TurkzZ]

at last the world cup has begun, 2nd round of games both been over , leaving the 15:00 game, both teams are poor, but if anything id lean on the Greece +0.5

[EaglesPhan36]

Teams with good offense are showing it now. Unfortunately the next match is likely not going to fit in that category.

[TurkzZ]

haha agreed

[hedgejob]

Last 2 games went over maybe a trend change

[hedgejob]

Greece hasn't scored a goal in last 4 WC games, law of averages

[Karayilan9]

Argentina were great in the first half, then that defensive blunder happened and they were in big trouble start of the second half. Defense was worrying without Samuel, a stronger team would have punished them, Messi pulled it out the bag when things got tough. Well at least it happened in the early games, Maradona will have time to get the defense more cohesive and work on the defense if they are to win this tournament.

Higuain didn't play well again but got a hatrick which is scary, next match should be used to get the defense more cohesive before the big games.

Anyway good win and looking good for the futures.

[brumbies]

Just curious where are you from Kara?
