FIFA WORLD CUP 2018 BETWIN CARLING BETTINGS TOPIC
It is upon us! The almighty bettings are here!
I don't remember rules right now. Maybe:
5 points for getting both sides scores right
3 points for getting the winner right
1 point for getting either sides scores right
Double points after the group stage. The post with the bets is not to be edited. If you need to edit it, post your bets again. Did we
have any other rules?
So, we missed the opening day and let's miss today as well, but tomorrow IT SHAAAAAAAALLLLLLL BEGINNINGS!
2018-06-14
Russia 5 - 0 Saudi-Arabia
2018-06-15
Egypt 0 - 1 Uruguay
Marocco - Iran
Portugal - Spain
2018-06-16
France - Australia
Argentina - Iceland
Peru - Denmark
Croatia - Niger

Germany - Mexico
Brazil - Switzerland
2018-06-18
Sweden - South Korea
Belgium - Panama
Tunisia - England
2018-06-19
Columbia - Japan

And you don't need to be a pro. It's just for fun, and winner takes it all. 
Place your bets by copying the country list and putting scores in the middle like in the first game.

If a match goes over time then the game time score is used, or in other words draws are possible in EVERY match.

BETWIN CARLING eh? Just watch you don't get sued for misplacing corporate identities!
I'm also glad this isn't for actual monies because I'm very sure I'm not a "pro".
At least the home nation Russia are enjoying it so far, 5-0 eh?
iWizard: you spelt Morocco wrong which RaverDave seems to have missed too. But I'll go along with it too as we're all idiots.

I do not care about any western capitalist scum.
There's like a half a dozen country names wrong due to the list where I got them being in Finnish and I only quickly changed a few letters here and
there to make them sound more English.

Everyone has new insider information? Everyone's against Peru? I'm updating!
2018-06-16
Peru 3 - 1 Denmark
Croatia 2 - 0 Niger
Sandman suggested this: I guess amendments should be copies of the bets and the original one edited and cleared, otherwise you could delete your
amendment.
Lets do this.

DAY 3 RESULTS 2018-06-16
France 2 - 1 Australia
Argentina 1 - 1 Iceland
Peru 0 - 1 Denmark
Croatia 2 - 0 Niger
Argentina needs to practice more teamplay and Peru has much talent on the attack side but they can't hit the goal! None of the South American teams
seem to take defense seriously. Iceland on the other hand...
Denmark didn't impress in anything other than looking pretty pro overall. I think they have a good change of getting past the group stage.
DAY 4 RESULTS 2018-06-17
Costa Rica 0 - 1 Serbia
Germany 0 - 1 Mexico
Brazil 1 - 1 Switzerland
Serbia was pretty good, maybe somewhat more creative than Denmark. Costa Rica had nothing, seems like a fill up team. I think I may have mixed them up
with Colombia.
I think Mexico's 1-pass plays/counter attacks are quite dangerous but once inside the 9(?) meter box they freeze. Definitely a solid mid-tier team.
Germany on the other hand was just a disorganised mess but I expect them to up their game. It's either that or they're out.
Brazil didn't have any kind of spark and I'm not sure was it even down to Switzerland. I mean I can't really say that Switzerland only defended,
although their attack was very cautious.
Pretty tight scores DD:

Nice round-up iWizard.
I'm catching an early flight this morning so have no time to analyse the teams! I'll make my juicy bets when I get to my destination.

Thanks. The round-ups are probably complete opposites to what the pros say :s
Oh noes, Sweden doesn't have Zlatan! And many others left the team two years ago. As a matter of fact they've only scored twice in their last seven
matches. Three against South Korea? Sure! While South Korea seems kinda nameless, they have two guys playing in the English Premiere League.

Er. Sorry for the edit. Could be seen as I've cheated? I didn't change the predictions, I was amending my cheeky post.
