Boy was training this morning, so we taped the match & just watched it.
OMG... What an unbelievable result!

Brazil's back 4 was pathetically bad - nervous on the ball & 1st touches were disgraceful.
The marking was non-existent!

So my $8 is still alive!!!

C'mon Argies - give me the $17 Finalists Result :D

ESPN 30 for 30 Series of Docos - "The Two Escobars"

Fantastic story - talks about how Pablo (the drug baron) controlled football in Colombia & how Andreas was 'clean cut' Captain of National Team.
Goes through the whole thing - do yourself a favour & watch it:

It's a fix and Bladder won't be happy that the bookies nobbled Brazil to throw the game after he had decided it was to be a Brazil v Argies final for the greater good of the game.

How could anyone want those ******* robots to win again. FFS an Argie v Kraut final, who the hell would you support.
Think I might spend the afternoon with my head down the dunny instead. It will be more fun.

Then I'll get out my subbuteo and pretend the West ham team is Burnley v Chelsea. (I know there are just the generic Blue team but you can use your imagination.)

I deserve a Finalist result, Jim05.
I got the 2002 result - Brazil v Germany @ $22 but...

I had $10 @ $126 in 2006 - Italy v Portugal.
That would've got me back to the UK for a few FFC matches - was shattered that the Frogs got through 1 nil in the Semi.

JTC, it is all about the PRICE.
Can't allow sentiment to get in the way when wagering - betting is a too difficult Science.
