Truly astonishing! How long until we can watch horse races live in 3D from any angle we want?

Before the World Cup started I had a little flutter on six outsider teams I thought might be of value.

Brazil
USA
Norway
Mexico
Belgium
Sweden.

Somehow, despite all six teams still being in the tournament, my cash out figure is negative.
5 out of 6 of my outsider bets are through to the last 16.

But even excluding the lost stake from Sweden, I'm STILL in the red for the remaining teams.

How is this possible? :lol:
It's like England, won their game 'so impressively' they drifted even though they're one step closer. :)

Gotta say it, I'm supporting Mexico tomorrow :?

It is possible now but there's just a licensing issue with doing it.

They've continued to drift on each round because they look so unimpressive. Personally I don't think the altitude is going to make a huge difference and I think England are more skillful but when you've got a massive crowd behind you and all of that momentum, it feels to me like Mexico are going to win.

Paraguay were such a dirty side. I know South American sites have a reputation for that sort of play but that was a real master class last night.

I'm continuing to build, because of the drift. My tissue price for England to win the World Cup, is around 8.00 not the current 13.00

Apart from the average performances, another reason they're drifting, is because both Brazil and Argentina are showing up... so far. If your big named strikers are on form, then the live market will reflect it. (apart from England and Harry boy)

I thought they were going for the Oscars rather than the WC. And only being 1 nil down it just seemed to waste their time more than bother France. It's all the fun of global football though, vive la difference.

I watch a lot of South American football. Outside of the very top teams it's generally horrible stuff. The target for most teams is to get a goal then park the bus and waste time by faking as many injuries as possible. It's blatant yet the refs are very lenient on it and rarely add any time on.

Stakes can be high, Andrés Escobar for Colombia, 1994 World Cup, murdered on the street the day after his own goal put the team out of the Cup. I think I'd rather roll around than kick the ball :)
