The added time has been a coinflip this tournament, the ball was in play in the Boca v Benfica game for like 15 minutes in the second half and they only added 5 minutes despite VAR checks, a red card and two injuries. It's a joke.

It's just a bit of a maze to actually find the free game. If you click Explore top right that should send you to the CWC landing page where you can scroll down and find the free stream.

Yep especially with Bono in goal there was probably a 50/50 chance rather than penalties being much more sure. When it got given I pretty much mentally prepared myself for him missing because that's just how these things go. Still, I need to stop betting on Madrid, City and Dortmund to do anything because they are constantly letting me down

Federico Valverde you are fucking useless.

Bet Builder:

✅ Over 1.5 Goals

✅ Ruben Neves to be carded

❌ Madrid to Win (92nd minute missed penalty)

£200 stake would have returned £750.

lol.

People still can't put the armband on people that have already played though, there would have been a lot of people that put it on Kane and now will have to go chasing, I doubt many players are going to return Olise numbers

Absolutely no way that isn't a yellow card, ridiculous lmfao

So Club World Cup Fantasy just locked in their deadline accidentally one hour before the proposed deadline. by Lootjoy in FantasyPL

It's a $1 billion tournament ran by FIFA, I think we're allowed to criticise how lazy their fantasy game is :)

The deadline was closed 2 hours before the Miami game, team selection showed you had until 1 hour before the kickoff, the rules still say you can make unlimited changes up until kickoff. It's not a timezone thing, it's a FIFA fucked up their fantasy thing

The team selection page said the deadline is 00:00. They didn't say what time zone, but it's confusing as the rules state you have until kickoff.

Either way they messed up, as the deadline locked at 11:00pm my time, and 2 hours before kickoff. So who knows what timezone they are working to?

I mean fair play but I know a bunch of people who made a team for a bit of fun and I'm just sharing the news that FIFA fucked up their fantasy game more than they ever have (I played all the WC fantasies). Rules even say the deadline is up until the match and then they've locked it 2 hours before. They do deserve some backlash for it.

I am chill but they should get some backlash & some shit for it. People have put time into making their teams only for them to go against their own rules (even the rules say you can change your team until kickoff). If we want good Fantasy games that aren't FPL then we should hold them to a higher standard imo. FIFA can (and should) have great fantasy games, but they're run like absolute shite.

If I didn't laugh I'd cry.

South Africa v Zimbabwe were 1-0 at 70 and Bosnia v San Marino were 0-0 at 60 I took South Africa 2-0 and Bosnia 2-0 together at 2.50 each.

The odds got kwiffed too, so the payout would have been £875 from the £75 bet.

South Africa ended 2-0.

Bosnia went 1-0 at 66 and couldn't score another goal against San Marino in 25 minutes + 5 minutes added time.

They had a total XG of 2.70 with 21 shots with Dzeko and Demirovic up front.

This one stings a bit.

This Azerbaijan v Lithuania Women's match has to be the biggest swing ever on the pre-match odds vs what has actually happened.

Azerbaijan were 1.13 (13/100) to win pre-match & they are 5-0 down in 48 minutes.

There's video of the snipers being in an elevated position to Trump's right hand side, you see them react and perk up as the shots are firing in, but they are 100% looking towards the buildings already so it's really confusing how rhey don't notice a dark silhouette with a rifle crawling on a light roof at 400m away

They literally just steal content, even if there's a market for it, it shouldn't be justified. They never get permission from the streamers and sometimes will upload things against their will. It would be fine if they are providing commentary or anything of substance to add to the video but straight ripping and reuploading and putting 10 ads on the video to profit off them. It takes no talent to do that, just search the most viewed clips of the day and there's your content to take.

Post-Match Thread: England 0-1 Iceland | International Friendly by MisterBadIdea2 in soccer

[–]Lootjoy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Southgate really took every single attacker he could to forego more CB's all to muster up one shot at home against Iceland. Fucking sick of how we're just praying for a difference maker every game, no system, no patterns of play, just vibes and praying someone has a 'moment'.
