It's funny how this often happens, the boring final. But at least the second half was a bit better than the first.

Congrats to Liverpool who deserved something from this season you feel.

Liverpool.....Champions of Europe.
Sorry for Spurs.That handball will be a bone of contention.
If I'd been able to watch on anything other than blurry youtube BT I might be able to comment.

you can't stand in the penalty area with your arms out like a goalkeeper and not expect a penalty if they make contact with the ball. There is no such thing as accidental handball if you place your arms in a position to give yourself an advantage

Somebody has over a number of weeks now been lumping 3-4k into the market laying the draw within the last hour before kickoff. Anyone else spot it? Anyone with an idea what the ploy is here?

I can categorically say it's not spoof money. Because it's lumped in, and then kept in-play, rain or shine. It's never moved, just sits there until it gets taken, no matter how much time elapses. In fact, in one instance it was done at 5s and the underdog scored dropping the price below 4s and it was still left there!!!!

Maybe someone on a hot streak with a lay the draw strategy. Although I can't see that sort of money going into the market after a goal. If it is going in, then it's done by proportionally laying the two teams, rather than backing the draw.

I'm hesitant to fully pull the trigger on this, keeping in mind the recent story of matchfixing going all the way to top in Spain, I'm fearing it's someone who knows something they shouldn't really know.

It's, seemingly, on right now in Sweden (also with a recent matchfixing history) in Elfsborg v Hacken at 3.45

Edit: Should say 3-4k layed and available for others to back, so a fair chunk of money, with the guy having 10k+ liability.

Using the Premier League as a test, with the Draw Odds at 3.45 these are the results.

Of the 30 games 5 ended in a draw v 25 that did not

That was my question also :D Again, not so much that someone puts that in pre. More that it's left in-play no matter what until matched. I don't fancy getting too involved, as I have other interests in those markets, which I prefer. So just thought I would mention it, if someone wanted in, plus my curiosity is killing me :D Cannot make heads or tails of it, as I cannot see how it can be profitable, unless he's an absolute wizard at picking none-draw matches.

He did the later Swedish match as well. Atletico PR v Fluminense at laid at a price of 4 up next I see.

How on earth was that not a pen on Joao Felix?
And with VAR too!

What nonsense. I worried VAR would do this. The earlier Portugal pen claim was much stronger. Defender behind pulls the striker around at the moment of the strike.
The Swiss pen was just an accidental collision. Quite shocking.
