Sportsbet.io's FIFA World Cup 22 Prediction Pool Discussion thread

[sam00]

Wow what a game guys!

This was by far the most exciting world cup final I have watched so far (and my country won the world cup in 2014 )

When Mbappe scored the 1st goal for France I totally thought @bullrun2020bro or @LittleMouse either one of them was going to be the winner and in the end my draw prediction was correct

I wanna thank all of you for the congratulations and the super fun tournament! I also wanna thank Sportsbet.io for sponsoring this contest and will be back next time there's a big contest in the international gambling forum!

edit: can anyone tell who has the most points in the semi finals and finals combined?

Mbappe gave three goals from penalty spot to same keeper on same match, it is really hard task to do
but, he did not had any supporting player to back him up into the final

on the other hand, Messi played great tournament, and deserved to lead Argentina into celebration, it is a title after 36 years

and, not sure were Brazil more happy with France not getting back to back, and equalize that record, or with neighbors getting the title

Mbappe set a record - no one except him scored 4 goals in the World Cup finals. Given the fact that he has a long career ahead of him, this may not be the limit, in addition, he is only 4 goals away from Klose's record - he will definitely break this record as France is consistently participating in the group stage of the tournament.
As for Brazil, it is time for them to think not about competitors, but specifically about themselves - they have not had any achievements for a very long time. In fact, those players who play now have nothing, only "historical" memories and status.

By the way, congratulations to everyone who made it to the prizes! I hope this is a good addition to positive emotions (or consolation)!

Even though Argentina win the World Cup, Mbappe win the hearts of France people. 4 goals in the World Cup Final is a record for Sure. He move his game to the winning part. Out of 7 goals, he made the 4 is more then the 50 percentage of record. My opinion is France full team not ready for the Finals to face all the situation including the Penalty. Actually penalty win is not consider as a win. But the Cup was given to Argentina by the penalty shots. Penalty itself draw means, it will be the best knock. But the Goal keeper win the hearts of Messi and Argentina people for sure. He won the golden arm for that knock.

Until 80th minute it looked quite boring final, France weren't able to make anything and it looked that even players don't believe that they can make an comeback. But after 8th it turned into one of the best World Cup finals ever and without any doubts, best that I saw.
If yesterday I thought that best goalkeeper of tournament is either Livakovic or Bonou, today I'm confident that's Martinez. He was doing amazing things today, especially THAT save on the final minutes of extra time.
And Messi, what a tournament he had and finally he achieved everything what is possible in football. Simply GOAT.
Damn, even few hours after final it's still difficult to pick words for me, so much emotions.
BTW, congratulations to @darxiaomi with Argentina win. Though, I'm not sure that you will notice my post, I imagine you're celebrating now with whole country

That moment when you score a hattrick in World Cup final and it wasn't enough to win. What a player. But everything is still ahead for him. He already have World Cup trophy and probably 3 more chances to win it again. Beating Klose's record is only matter of time.

Awesome, that means 8 mBTC, right? Niceeee.

Indeed. Got pretty lucky with my picks this time.

And a big Congrats to you for taking 1st Place in the pool!

Same here. Big congrats to @sam00 for taking the first place. Was a close call at the end, but who could have expected such a crazy game. Well played Argentina. And congrats Messi. He really deserves this after his long career.

/edit: And of course a big thanks to Sportsbet.io for hosting this lovely betting game! Was great fun. Can't wait for the next tournament.

I personally think that I saw the best football game in my life and I could say maybe in history ? This one will go down as one of the greatest games for sure and Messi was unstoppable with finally achieving his dream and what a standards he jut set for incoming generation that is almost impossible for anyone to match him anytime soon.

Mbappe also did something that only the greatest can achieve by scoring 3 goals in World Cup finals and I'm sure he will have another World Cup by the time he will retire or even two more.

If the winners can PM me on my main account with their addresses I'll get the prizes sent out sometime next week.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it was boring up until then but France certainly were. They were asleep for most of the game and they didn't even have a single shot in the first half. Credit to them for their performance after their first goal though but Argentina deserved the win in the end. Ronaldo will be hugging his ballon dor's and crying himself to sleep tonight.

Annoyingly for me I had a small bet on Argentina to win the world cup and Messi top scorer to Mbappe took that away from me  . Got the correct score right on Sportsbet with one of the free bets jeremypwr sent me so that softened the blow a bit  .

Penalty win will not be considered a win?That is the first time I hear it and I find it extremely funny,penalties are there just to decide that,who will win when no one of the teams can win in regular time and in extra time,it is a sure way to end a game.Most probably you mean that penalties are just luck and I agree to a certain point,there is not for nothing that they are also called sudden death.

I find a really bad move by Argentinian goalkeeper after getting his prize as the best goalkeeper he put it in his d*ck and was pointing it to the fans,that this saved you and this gave you the World Cup,probably just some euphoria moment which can be forgiven by fans.

[jeremypwr]

My apologies to sam00 as he is the winner of the Boosted Yellow Cap.
Sorry about that sam00!

[Little Mouse]

Congrats Sam.
At some point, bullrunbro was supposed to be first when France scored their first goal. He wasn't at the end.
And in the extra time, when Argentina was scored another one and I was supposed to be 2nd but wasn't at the end.
After all these drama, nothing changed in the rank. It was a great one.

[casperBGD]

it is a day to congratulate winners here, Sam00 win it in the end, but also to all other that ended up in top10 abd earned prizes

with 3:3 in the final, it was hard to expect that some participants from top spots will have an exact score, so nothing changed much

now easy week to realx and then back to EPL and club football, from next Monday

Yes it was a good pool and congratulations to all the winners.

Can't wait for next Monday as the clubs league for me are better in the sense that they keep us entertained during the whole year while the World Cup happens once in 4 years.It was a very good World Cup with Argentina fully deserving to win the cup,they were waiting for it since 1986 and all Buenos Aires plazas were full of people celebrating,you can only find such kind of celebrations in Latin America,we in Europe are somewhat behind in this until now.

[slaman29]

Thank you for organizing the pool as usual. I was at some point #3 but getting 0 correct outcomes in the weekend matches meant I slipped down, but I'm still very happy to collect a prize (plus also a 4mbtc freebet from the final prediction game by jeremypwr!

Well done sam00, Slissy also for being at the top for so long!!

I PM'd my account already It's my Sportsbet wallet lol

It was a pretty close call, but I don't think you were on 2nd, because at 3-2 both of our scores were close for 1.5 points, if I count right. But not 100% sure, since I still don't fully understand the Superbru system. Played Kicktipp for too long, haha.

Anyway, it was one of the best finales I ever watched. And with that amount of money on the line, it was even more fun. 

If the winners can PM me on my main account with their addresses I'll get the prizes sent out sometime next week. 

Awesome. Thanks a lot! I alreay sent you my details. Thanks again for hosting this & of course thanks again to Sportsbet.io for making this pool possible.

Yes I do remember runners up and third places in some world cups, last time that was Croatia who lost against France in final match, and Belgium was better than England for third place.
Maybe I don't know what happened many years ago but I also don't remember first places and champions.

You have a f**king sharp memory, at some point I did not even remember who was runner up of the last year World cup LOL. May be it's the age doing the trick with me 😉

Who is sam00 here? Whoever you are, congratulations brother. There are no one closer to you to challenge you now.

Thank you! That's me, I even posted in this thread before but no problem, I am 99% active in the german board

There you are brother. Sorry, If I am not wrong then I can remember you from WO. There is a long break between me and WO these days though. Good to see you are the winner. 0.1 btc in current market don't seem much but hold it. Wait for the next halving and beyond. The rate will reach over $100k and you will find it a lot of money.
You are lucky AF 😘

I witnessed the best world cup match last afternoon. Mbappé again showed the world that he is the best. He many even break all the records in the future. But Messi needed it more than anyone. Football is proud now.

[buwaytress]

bullrun's got 2-1 and Little Mouse has 3-1 so I'd say they fancy their chances haha. Now you need France to score 2 goals and they're both unable to catch up... pretty damned good final so far.

I thought everyone will pick high score as both team has a lot of good attacking players.

I picked 3-2 myself so you can imagine my joy when Messi actually bundled that ball over in extra time... I wasn't sure but it might JUST have been enough to creep me over the line, we'll never know.

All that said, 3-3 was a fantastic final for the ages. I feel really lucky to have watched the whole thing.

Back to the club grind now people.

[darxiaomi]

Not better than me 😂

Back to the club grind now people.

A month feels like ages. I am so frustrated that pretty sure I will be continuing shit selections for the coming few rounds. Only 7 days to restart premier league.

In Champions league is it obvious that PSG is going to win the title?
