ARGENTINA were shocking against Croatia and it's amazing how poor the big guns have been in this tournament.
I didn't fancy them to go well as they can't get the best out of Lionel Messi but I reckoned France would be good.
How wrong I was – they were again lucky to win and there was no goal for Antoine Griezmann so the Super Single was downed.
I did though tip Christian Eriksen to score for Denmark in the other game and it was a cracker although they couldn't hang on to beat the battling Aussies.
On Friday let's hope for better from Brazil as they tackle Costa Rica. I don't expect much from Serbia v Switzerland while the other game is Nigeria v Iceland and the Icemen can win to just about eliminate Argentina.
I've posted a preview of all three games and there are separate previews from some of the site contributors so check them out.
My Daily Double is under 2.5 goals at Serbia v Switzerland and Iceland draw no bet against Nigeria.

Mr f, John b, would you be surprised if Russian footballers were caught doping? I certainly would not, with their track record of state sponsored doping across all sports.
Sepp Blatter has recently publicly stated he has no involvement in footballing or political matters, which I find hard to believe, after he recently had dinner with ex Russian sports minister Vitalty Mutko, now President of the Russian football union.
I wonder what way that conversation went.

I’m more interested in the football to be honest – not the politics. They’ll take care of themselves and just be careful what you say.
You’ll see the last sentence has disappeared. We can’t publish that without evidence.
Spot on Mr f, the Russians seem to get the blame for everything. I for one hope they win it.
I second that cocker. I was wondering how long it would take before the interminable anti Russian rhetoric of the western media would cast its jaundiced eye over Russian success.
I for one hope they dont win it!! I would much prefer England to win. In fact, it would be like a whole load of Christmas’ and birthdays rolled into 1. Obviously it’s about as likely as Linford Christie becoming Pope but you’ve gotta live the dream.
Nothing against England xhaka but as a neutral the bias against Russia is way over the top as friskychaser pointed out.
I’d much prefer Russia won it rather than England
You trash our goalposts in 1978 (?), you beat us at Rugby and you still don’t support us in world cups. What have the English ever done wrong ???
It ain’t the English – it’s just the English commentators.
Never let us forget 19** and then beating Tunisia makes England contenders in their eyes.
Bitter ? ? ? ? ?
Betting wise obviously ?
I am to get a mixed response to my view, but I think this world cup has been rubbish so far. 2 or 3 good games.
32 teams is way too many and whilst you need to try to give a chance to lower ranked teams it rather ruins the spectacle.
Can’t wait for it to increase to 48 teams. Not.
Yeah agree with that going to be shocking if they make it 48.
Though Wales and Scotland will have a better chance to qualify ?
yep i was at that game in 1977 you are talking about….didnt manage to get on the park…but i finished up with a bit of the turf, but due to my drunken state left it in the hotel….fantastic weekend…..
It’s been rubbish but group games often are. Will improve as games go by and knockout stages should still be good.
Iceland

Gone for 10 wee bets in the Serbia Swiss game to get ma free fiver wi Skybet. Done it yday and got ma ££ back wi Perisic, Modric & Rakitic shots on gl plus 1 void. Gone wi this double but too much to write for Serbia bets.

Free fiver pays £160
Tempted to try the same. What did you go for if it’s not too much hassle typing them out?
1 of 3 pens came in yesterday. (a 21/10 winner)

the anteposts look a bit doomed Mr F the groups should have been straight forward but how wrong we were
Yep, been a weird World Cup with no one really turning up.
Croatia were my dark horses though.

Always hoping for and wondering why these isles never seem to have a chance of hosting another World Cup, hoping to see it happen in my lifetime as it would be spectacular given the massive support for the game over here, fantastic stadiums etc. Dont care if its a joint effort from the 4 nations or even just held in England but we never seem to be in with a shout for some reason.
one word: Politics
There’s talk of a joint bid for 2030 after the Mexico, Canada and USA bid won for 2026.
Obviously most games would be in England and if only one nation is to qualify they should let it be Scotland.
Either that or increase form 48 in 2026 to 64 – we might have a chance of making it then.

Well this is going just great just like rest of world cup :S
got to admit the more I see the big guns struggling the more quiet optimism I have for England grows especially if Germany end up facing brazil in the last 16 as then we wouldn’t have to face anyone fearsome until the semis
Marcelo ATGS 9/1
Bet365
He knows this Keeper well , although he has cut a lot of mistakes out his game I feel he has one In him today
Another thriller of a first half, edge of the seat stuff
Clash of the shite uns at the moment this cup. Can only really say Croatia have impressed me so far. Russia have done better than everyone expected but they’ve played no one.
It’s wide open
Yep. really thought after using the first group stage game as a ‘sounding board’ Brazil would’ve come out flying for this one, but nahhhh.
Will probably take another wonder strike to break the deadlock.
Croatia really play as a team, well drilled. I’ve actually been quite impressed with Russia, even though they’ve only played weaker opposition so far, they’ve created lots of chances against teams who have tried to sit back a bit and defend.
Russia’s next game will show how competent they are. Uruguay a tough nut to crack. Am sure we’ll get 1 or 2 goals 2nd half in this game.
Called it right hampy hope you backed that up with a bet pal ;)

Nice one Kel, followed you on this one.
need a bit of advice..
waiting on 3.5 cards/ 7.0 corners in next 2 world cup games..
do i cash out my 30 plus and risk the finboggason 1st and mitrovic 1st double?
more info needed to advise
haha what you mean @alex_mufc83 .. as in if there are over 7 corners and 3.5 cards in both games i win 334, as had 2.5 in brisbane knights game 11/10 and 11/8 over 9.0 corners in brazil game and 6.5 brazil shots on target 5/6
so need the ref to actually give bookings like instead of so much benefit of the doubt haha
Ah OK I get you now, would depend what the current cash out value is… and also if there is anyway you can cover
yeah @alex_mufc83 cash out is 30ish, just gonna keep it going, getting used to losing at this world cup likes hahahahha, cards and corners was the best to begin with, but the cards are drying up now..
Yeah Over 3.5 cards in both games is a bit of an ask… saying that, they’re both expected to be aggressive matches…. best of luck with it
