Online casinos do place restrictions on ages according to the requirements of any countries where in they are situated but sadly some underage person do forge their age even their KYC document to be able to gain access to the sites so as to be able to play various games, win and make money for them selves, it's sad that you really can't asertain on a 100% who is telling the truth or not as online deals mostly with virtual activities.

In my country where I reside the legal minimum age permitted to gamble is between 18-21 but I think that of the united states' is similar to this and it stands to be very much recommended as people who fall within this age limit can to a great extent make decisions for themselves under every good circumstances. This can help curb some irregularities that may be caused by gambling.

Regardless of the age limit it is most advisable to not get to the point of addiction while gambling as this may cost you a lot even if you have attained the age, when you incure so much losses from gambling it may have some psychological effects such as depression on the the victim. In all you do gamble responsible, an advise usually seen on almost every casino site.

Every gambling and casino sites usually put a strict warning on the permitted legal age who should sign up on the site, this is because they know the possible effect it could have on under aged person who are yet to attend the legal gambling age as addiction maybe uncontrollable at that age, so it is advised strongly not to expose kids or or juveniles to gambling.

At that age of theirs most of them still stands to depend so much on their parents and guardians as they are yet to have a stable source of income for themselves as they are yet to attain legal working age in some countries or states/cities. Whenever they are craving to place a bet on a particular game because they feel will be a winner and they lack the funds to they may result to stealing for gambling.

Conclusively we should keep away any form thing that is suggestive of gambling or would expose them to gambling too early because if the realise they could make money from gambling they may result to getting addicted and using it as a source of income which can cause laziness to set in on a long run and may not be willing to want to get a job when they finally attain the age to work because they will think they can always make the money from gambling.

In fact, Manchester United recent play has been underwhelming as evidenced by yet another Champions League defeat. Although their matchup with Bayern Munich seems promising Erik ten hag is under increasing pressure. The goal should always be to win every competition since victory can happen suddenly as it did when Chelsea won the Champions league in 2021. Since the Champions league represents the peak of football success no manager would voluntarily ignore it. To guarantee their spot in the top four and relieve the burden on their manager Manchester United must concentrate on raising every aspect of their performance. They should also aim for a winning streak.
With the recent performance at the UCL game I am very optimistic that Manchester united have a chance of becoming a good team again as they were usually know for in the past. Erik ten hag seem to be responding positively to the recent pressure mounted on him from all over to improve on the performance of the team generally.

Bayern exhibit high level of resilience els they wouldn't have been able to get a win over Manchester united as in the second half the game changed and Manchester united did secured goals which almost equated that of Bayern but then a goal difference saved the day for Bayern Munich but then Manchester united still showed they are getting over their crisis soon.

Champions league is more like the zenith league of football when it has to do with club side football and that is why it always a different game all together whenever any team is playing any UCL games, the best is the only thing every team brings to UCL that's what I think Manchester united realized and showed of the performance the did showed in the yesterday game even tho they didn't secure a victory.

Napoli defeated Braga to a 2-1 victory in yesterday's UCL game, this happens to be their first game in the UCL this season. Lorenzo as assisted by victor osimeh scored the first goal of the game in the first half after which they had a second goal in the second half of the game and Braga got a goal in the second half of the game which brought the send half of the game to end in a draw.

Braga was dominated by Napoli all through the first half of the game and lost the first half to Napoli. Victor osimeh was at his best as usual tho he didn't have a goal to himself but he did assisted, Braga tried resisting some attempt to score them but finally Napoli found their way through to get a goal in the first half, although Braga didn't look like a team that would give Napoli a hard time but the made some attempts

Napoli could be said to be a better team as compared to Braga in the game as they did performed way better than Braga owning the game , untill the second half Braga was more of a defensive team but later managed to secure a goal after cutting down a bit on their defensive tactics and attacked Napoli to be able to get a goal.

The opening game between LASK and Liverpool is one which I am in great anticipation as LASK have a near to perfect record the last time I checked their statics, they have played 5 games so far in their league of which they won four and drew just one, this makes them unbeaten and outstanding aswell. This will be their third time in the Europa games.

So far we can say the Australian side is in a very good form probably well enough to face the English team, let's not forget the English team is participating in three different leagues, one of which is the champions league which they played few days back, just before they will be meeting with LSK they also have an EPL game ahead I hope they don't get fatigued.

I see it as a privilege for a team like LASK facing Liverpool who is esteemed to be one of the biggest amongst all the teams who will be playing the Europa games, they have six UCL trophies and three Europa cup titles to their name, an achievement enough to scare LASK but nevertheless they still have to face them in the forth coming Europa game.

Roma made a big splash against Empoli. They beat them 7-0 and got one of the biggest scores in Serie A. Of course, this could be the most different match score of the year. Roma became a more effective team now that they had players who could help Dybala. It shows that they will be better this year than last year.
Roma stands at 12th position on the league table with jus 4 points having played 5 games already, won 2 lost two and drew one, it's not a too good performance to be reconciled with but the game against empoli was a good one as the win was a land slide, although empoli is not too good a team to be able to defeat Roma but the loss they suffered was unexpected.

Roma will be facing Torino on Sunday, it is an opportunity for dybala and others to put up an outstanding play which will be capable of putting their team ahead, although going by the records Torino have played 5 games won 3 lost 1 and drew 1. As compared to Roma they seem to have a good record little above Roma as it regards the statistics above.

We shouldn't be expecting a humiliating defeat from Roma this time around as Torino will be prepared as they are aware of the recent win Roma got over empoloi. It's going to be not too easy a game for Roma, I would say if they are able to score up to three goals it could be considered a good one and I am also anticipating a goal too from Torino.

That was the expectation of majority because I thought so too, but Union Berlin killed and expectation and were very impressive defensive, there performance has shown that they're really good with defense but needs to work on their attacking line and also if they got similar performance from their defense I'm league matches I think it would be quite difficult for most teams to beat them and help push them up the table.

 If you noticed Madrid didn't spend on their attacking line this summer and I believe that's one area the board would be seriously considering to work on during the wondow but for now they’ve got to stick with Joselu who's with the  team temporary, however if Joselu doesn't really impress them much I think they might get another attacker on loan by Jan for support.
Madrid still have good players just the way they wanted it so it was almost needles buying new players over the summer.Especially their attack line where they have the likes of Vinicius Junior, Lucas Vázquez and Rodrygo still in their best of form, so it was almost needless buying new strikers because who were this new player going to replace of cause none.

Union Berlin did more of a defensive play, they made it obvious that their strength is mainly in their defense, although their defensive prowess is quite impressive but that was not we all expected of them, we expected a game where the play was supposed to be balance as the both look equal in strength of play going by their records in their various league.

They showed lesser strength in both their midfield and attack although they are not known for such weakness in both their defense and attack both in this game they concentrated more strength on their defense, I am optimistic union berlin will do better in their other games both in the UCL and in the bundesliga as they have the capacity for a better performance.

The major problem of manchester united was on its defenders. MU defenders was killing the game. It's obvious if we can't even judge onana as the one who performed poorly against bayern caused by manchester united's defenders have been performing even worst than him.

It's a shame for manchester united conceded so many goals but i was aware how the defenders played like there's no chemistry between them.
Onana gets a lot of blame but people forgot the defenders were also making too many mistakes here.
The keeper was the major blame I refuse to put much blame on the defenders as they weren't at their best but they weren't at their worst either it was basically defensive error which the keeper couldn't make up for, the keeper even committed an error aswell which caused the team a goal which impact was lasting as they couldn't recover from and got a loss.

Manchester was not the only ones who concede that much goal, Remember Bayern Munich also conceded 3 goals is that not enough for you to see that Manchester united tried as well?? I mean it's kinda mean of you to say it was quite shameful Manchester united concede goals whereas Bayern also had a fair share of the total goal concede in the game.

It's very true the defender exhibited some level of complacency which made it felt like there was no chemistry amongst them. But the goal keeper should have been on alert enough to cover up for the defenders, the keeper is more like the second coach on the pitch so he should have observed that his defenders are defective and be able to cover up for them at some point.
3389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: September 21, 2023, 08:46:44 AM
Onana is not very consistent, he often moves in situations he shouldn't. I think he should be able to control his instinct level which is quicker to catch the ball rather than continuing to make blunders.
 However, the final result was in favor of the hosts where they were able to get 3 points at home which made them temporary leaders in Group A.
At some point I do say Manchester united miss de gea, because onnana seem so unstable and irregular, he exhibit some level of unnecessary confidence which I think at some point is not needed and this has led to certain mistakes which cost the team the game, especially in this just concluded UCL game where he was not at his very best.

Onana should understand that he is a goal keeper and that's his job, he shouldn't see him self as a player, rather 90% goal keeper and 10% player. He should hold the ball and stop trying to use his leg all the time as this could lead to possible mistake which the team may not be ready to tolerate as when it happens. I hope he becomes more careful and perform better.

The defense mechanism of Manchester united don't seem formidable enough at some point, as the give too many spaces for potential penetration by their opponent, as displayed in the second half of the UCL game they played yesterday, sometimes a good defense system could be of great help to the keeper as the safety of the goal post does not solely depends on the goal keeper alone.

Considering the Atletico Madrid last match in La Liga didn't show a good performance, their lost against Valencia, and recently Diego squad only got 1 point in the UCL against Lazio. I think Real Madrid still have chance to win, although I'm not too sure either. Because yes Atletico Madrid is a big team, and they will play at home which is another advantage for them in front of supporters, so indeed it is difficult for Real Madrid to win.
The home advantage for Atletico Madrid will be a great advantage for them especially if they could make good use of it, Real Madrid is not a small team, they happen to be one of the first top three teams in the laliga as this is a fact that can't be proven other wise so atletico Madrid should take to consideration that it's not going to be an easy game for them.

If Real Madrid take on Atletico Madrid with the kind of performance exhibit at the UCL and considering the recent performance of Atletico I think Atletico still doesn't stand a strong chance as Real Madrid is in their best of form at the moment and will do everything possible to remain at the top, the home advantage for atletico is only valid if they can capitalize on it enough.

Predicting that game I will say both team are definitely going to have at least a goal in that match, but I can't really tell who will win as both teams will be well prepared to put in their best as the both consider themselves big. It will take an extra goal from either of the teams to win the other, more goals will be seen in the second half of the game than in the first.

I can see because of the good performance from Xabi Alonso, he is now getting more famous and some teams are playing to hire this coach for the next season even if they are currently working with great coaches in their team.
For example, Real Madrid is still trying to find a replacement for Carlo Ancelotti because they know he is going to leave the team one day. But because of the performance we saw from Xabi Alonso, I don't think if Leverkusen let him leave anytime soon.
Leverkusen will definitely not want to let go off Xabi Alonso anytime soon, this is a team that has suffered certain level of set back over a long period of time but since the arrival of Xabi Alonso their have been a drastic change and  this is something the club is very happy with including the players as their relationship with the coach has improved greatly.

I see it as a cause and effect kind of thing for Xabi to have gained so much fame and attention in a short period of time, it can be seen as the results he has produced with his team within his period of arrival up on to this time. His impressive performance has attracted so much attention to result in the Fame and the attention of other teams wanting to hire him as their coach.

Ancelotti isn't doing bad at Madrid either it's only that his contract will expire one day and he may have to leave but I think that will be on the condition that he wants to leave but if he decides to renew his contract at Madrid he definitely will be given that chance as his overall performance with the team so far has been great, winning titles and lifting trophies is enough for him not to be just allowed to go because there is someone somewhere doing well which they think they can hire.

Manchester United lost three, out of the five matches that they have played so far. Luckily they were able to win the other two. It is just simply not good enough from them. Better performance is definitely expected from them.

But the question is are we going to see better performance from Manchester United? I don’t think that is happening. At least not in the upcoming five matches or so. They are still going to be inconsistent in those matches as well.  I bet if this was any other club, the managerial job of the coach would have definitely been in jeopardy. I don't understand why Manchester United is so much tolerant of this coach.
The records Manchester united have currently is quite not encouraging as they have lost more matches than they have won, that is quite discouraging I must say, just two wins one of which was looking like a lucky win but then a win is a win, Manchester united started on a poor note this season and are yet to make visible improvement enough to impress the fans and the team.

Nevertheless I think Manchester united will pull up some level of improvement soon, saying they will not show some improvement anytime soon is not in oder as the pressure on them is now on the high side and they are definitely going to yield to the pressure to make good improvement. It's all over the media how bad their performance has been and united has a good ear on the media.

Considering their recent performance at the UCL, we hope to see more of a great performance at their next two or three premium league games at most. The coach has so much pressure now to perform as his poor performance has become too obvious and lasted too longer than expected, the team cannot continually face disappointments and still not do something about it.

Manchester United beating Bayern Munich in Germany is not a totally impossible in the world of football. Why th person made such a statement is that the current form of Manchester United is not something that is encouraging. If Manchester United should be on their prime, there is no club they cannot beat, be it home or away. In the other hand Bayern Munich is not even that club we used to know some seasons ago. They are strategically trying to come back to their old form, which they have not attend to currently.
Some seasons ago up until later part of last season, Bayern Munich had a super crazy form, which whomsoever they meet they tend to humiliate, their game then are usually characterized with a lot of goals, on a bad day, they score as much as 3 while on a good day they can score as much as 7 goals and above, nevertheless regardless of Manchester united poor form at the moment they are not that team that could suffer such humiliation from Munich.

Manchester united did put up a spectacular performance as compared to what was expected of them due to their recent form, from the first half of the game up on to the second half they were seen putting up equal strength with Munich, statistically Munich had a little above united with possession of the game, same applied to other of the match statistics, they had just slight difference.

Both team I can say we're at their best but then Bayern showed some level of superiority because they were at home which was definitely an advantage, consequently it's very possible Manchester united could have secured a win but then their form at the moment wouldn't allow the against a team as Munich. United can aswell do better in their next UCL game if they can step up their form a little above they way they played against Munich.
3394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: September 20, 2023, 10:03:39 PM
Manchester united had the tendency and the vIbe to fight and get a come back against Bayern Munich but unfortunately they have a leaking pipe behind at the goal post in the person of Onana therefore they have a long way to go in terms of keeping a clean sheet in a match.
The result of today's game 4:3 shows that a come back would have been possible if the goal keeper was making the necessary savings as expected.
Earlier I foresaw Manchester united make a possible come back in the second half of the game and off course they did a come back although it wasn't held to further give them a win but then Manchester united also played good football today as compared to what people expected they would have done.they actually gave their best although it couldn't give them a win.

At some point I will say Onana needs to be spoken to because he can't continue in this manner and keep causing the team games especially in a league as the UCL where every games counts and matters to the team, he should work on avoiding silly mistakes and show of over confidence as that's not what the team wants of him, the team wants him in the goal post performing optimally.

ETH needs work on his strategy and tactics, although he had a good play today he still needs further improvement as he is points down already and still have bigger teams ahead to face in the UCL and Even premiere league, so the work load and pressure is raised high a little and that calls for further improvements to be able to handle both league and get good results as desired.

The same as Chelsea's performance from the previous season. I don't see any changes in the squad, and Chelsea is the best team that has added a lot of players this year. Despite this, I was even considering that the current Chelsea coach is worse than the previous one because the team's formation is poor and Chelsea players will be acting like they aren't using their legs to play on the pitch.
This shows clearly that Chelsea's problem may literally not be the players alone,  it may be probably be a problem of the team as a whole, starting from the team manager to the owners of the team as they all have a part to play in the recent poor performance of Chelsea as seen from last season even up until this season. Although it's looking more like it's basically the players but then let's see it in this light.

The coach at times seam to not play the players in their right position, which we know could definitely affect the players performance a great deal, I stand to be corrected tho. The coach needs to carefully study his player and improve the relationship he has with the players as this will help the players in a wholistic manner to improve their performance a long way.

They have good player enough to get them back to past glory but adequate utilization of this players with improved formation will help a long way. The owner of the team as well should have less of interfering especially when it has to do with certain player decisions, the coach stands a better position to handle it. Chelsea could be better if necessary changes is made and in time.

Arsenal is leading in the first half of the game with a fantastic play.saka was the first to Open the floor for goals to come in, and since then more goals have been launched in the net of PSV and since then it's been 3 goals already and at this point I can say victory is sure for arsenal as they are playing pretty good and wining the game aswell.

PSV never saw this coming I think as they may want to think arsenal would win but not with such margin from the first half of the game, I think at this point it will be okay to say PSV have no chances of winning tho they can secure a goal but will definitely not be able to win as arsenal is stoping at nothing to win this game even in the second half.

Earlier I was of the idea that PSV would give arsenal a tough time wining the game but surprising it turned out that arsenal is not finding it difficult to win the game as they have quite a good number of goal already in the jus the first half of the game. I'm hoping that the second half of the game still turns out in the favour of arsenal as they are deserving of it going by their style of play so far in the game

Manchester united is losing 2-0 to Bayern Munich and this is just the first hals of the game, although Manchester united are trying to show the match up but sadly the are not doing enough to over ride Bayern. The ball is evenly distributed on both sides of the pitch as its not concentrated more on one side against the other, this is an an indication that both teams are trying to face each other squarely.

At this point it's most obvious Munich have higher chances of victory as Manchester united is down already, I noticed Manchester united do not posses the ball long enough before Munich is seen possessing the ball again, they need to get some more composure and see if they can take back control of the game and probably do a come back.

Talking about come back, I don't see Bayern Munich as a team which Manchester united can get a come back with because they have a good defense system which cannot be broken just at once and Manchester seem not to have that penetrative ability enough to get a come back on Munich, but then a draw is very possible if into the second half of the game Manchester can step up their game.

PSG played well against Dortmund in the UCL game yesterday, it was expected that the game will be a really hard one on PSG but then against the usual PSG won the game by a 2-0 victory against Dortmund, and I must say it was deserving as they dominated the game in both halves. It was least expected of PSG to get such victory as Dortmund was considered to be a )tough side considering the recent flaws on the side of the french side (PSG.

Dortmund was the favorite of the game as they happened to show more opposition against the french side before the game, it was expected that the German side would give the french side a hard time wining and even if they do it wouldn't be this much or better still a draw was what was expected of the German side but sadly they lost to the french side by two goals.

It was indeed a game of surprise as it was initially a game that most persons found difficult predicting it's possible outcome just before it's started, most persons would expect PSG to show some level of weakness and most probably not secure as much as two goals but then it's the game of football were there are many possibilities especially in the UCL.

Real Madrid is dominating the first half of the game between them and union Berlin, Madrid have gotten a total possession of 72% so far with over 5 goal attempts setting them ahead, the pressure seem to be more on union Berlin as Madrid has kept the ball around the goal post of union Berlin most of the time through out the first half of the game.

Union Berlin seem to be more on the defensive side as they have failed to be able to keep their midfield in check enough to keep the ball away form their eighteen box, they are probably hoping on a swift counter attack to secure a goal in this game, but then so far they are performing below expectations as compared to their style of play in their local league (bundesliga).

Lets hope the second half of the game will birth more goals as we are yet to record any within the first 45mins of the game,  Madrid have More chances of securing a win in this game as they dominate the first half of the game keeping union Berlin far away from their goal post. Union Berlin still have the second half to defend that's if they want the game to end in a draw.

Arsenal will be taking on PSV on their first UCL game today, going by the records Arsenal stand unbeaten since the beginning of the season in the EPL. They have an outstanding record and performance having played five games, won four and drew just one, it can be said the have performed really well this season making the look fit enough to take on the opponent PSV in their UCL opening.

Meanwhile PSV also holds a similar record as arsenal as they are also recorded as unbeaten in their league as well having played five games aswell and won four drew one, it could be said that they are In form and have what it takes to face Arsenal as they don't look weak going by the records.we hope they bring the same energy to the UCl so as to get results.

Since both parties seem to have good records make the look like Fit enough for each other, I think arsenal has more advantage obviously because they have the experience and have played in the UCL more often. But then Arsenal will win the game, that's my prediction tho you can further make your analysis for more prediction. it's another UCL night to enjoy the games.
