Spain 0-0 at the half...at least they created good chances the last 15 minutes....too many of these teams that are playing as favorites are obsessed with maintaining possession...it defies the basic principles of game theory....they are using club principles where there is more

parity in talent and structure...they need to just put the damn ball in the box and make the other team play it cleanly without fouling...if the other team steals a minute of possession through good defending, so be it...

Its taken 10 minutes so far of this Spain Cape Verde WC game for me reminded how much Spain likes to play with their food on offense..they won't get 7 in this game...more like 2 or 3

super brief Monday WC thread...I don't have any hammer play....Belgium will slowly be exposed as this goes but they have an outstanding path to the final 16..they just have to need a heartbeat...I WILL do a little something with Egypt in the Asian Hcp....now the guy that said

Qatar was his worst team in the draw didn't have NZ 47...he had Saudi Arabia...not worried about the Uruguay travel trouble...a little worried about their play style to cover something wide....I may -1.5 1H for giggles....Iran should get strong support...I think they will play

well...nothing on the Spain game but I will be closely watching Cape Verde to see if I think they beat Saudi Arabia...REMEMBER this is a group where its a goal differential race the bottom 2 teams are so bad...Spain may try to hang 7 cause Uruguay could never match that..GLuck

are gonna be ultra motivated to do their thing....I am tempted to try a little Bo Nickal R1 for this reason...feels like a club & sub cause I think people are gonna sweat up too much to wrestle after R1...(except Lewis cause will be catatonic after 7 minutes...GLuck

Ivory Coast in the 90th break the tie....set the recent record for 4 total crossbars between them in the match....

Ecuador Ivory Coast 0's at half although it was alot of fun...my small sample handicap of Ecuador...
- Very good neutralizing the other team's midfield
- Solid shape defending in the "half court"
- Great shape offense the final 3rd particularly when entering final 3rd with pace

Ivory Coast may be a top 8 team in the field attacking with pace, looking loose in that aspect of game may be a function of a good opponent)
Bottom line, look like a great hammer, iffy nail....I like them alot more to cover a big number vs Curacao than I expected a day ago...

Germany??? I think the defense gets exposed but I do like them to score there....(if this 2nd half looks similar to first)...BTTS & over 2.5 will be tasty in that one)..Ecuador helps keep the price on that playable.

As I read on, I think they are worried about a storm cell heading that way....the telecast will start on time however...
Seeing a wire story saying there is a 1 hour delay before the start of the 1st UFC fight at the White House....(which means I get to watch end of Ecuador game...πππ)

Couple thoughts on Monday WTA .will pretend it won't rain in Berlin...1st Nottingham tho...Maria should slice Tjen to defeat but -250 is a bit wide unless you have info Tjen can't match up to the slice (which I don;t)...Tjen does have little grass experience and is pretty short

and I will call it "par" BUT 1 and done on it the last 2 weeks...now where is Fran Jones at...her WTA days may be coming to an end...I dunno and this line reflects her 4-14 career record on grass despite being a Brit..LOOK at her results the last 2 years..

That is better than anything Gibson has done on grass...we are getting 250 or more here on Jones but I dunno what's in her legs...this is an excellent set 1 wager IMO..Gibson low on confidence & Jones has forever been a fast starter before fading...GLuck
