Today Argentina could not perform as expected. Have any of you seen this match? I think there was something wrong with the referee's decision. However, Argentina fell behind by 1 goal in the 1st half and Ecuador eventually won. In the 2nd half, Argentina were far ahead in passes and possession, but could not attack. Argentina players have not done well enough. However, Ecuador played at home, so Ecuador took advantage of the opportunity. Ecuador won and they moved up to number 2 in the points table.


On the other hand, the Brazilian players could not play as expected, Brazil lost 0-1. Bolivia played brilliantly and won.

Well.due to the unexpected performances of both Brazil and Argentina I lost two bets placed on their wins. As a result, my bankroll experienced a slight decline. However, the loss was somewhat mitigated by the third bet I placed on England's victory over Serbia. England scored five goals, while Serbia failed to score at all. Red card of Milencovic has played into the hands of England.

Argentina and Brazil do look like it would be great betting, looks like odds are like that because they just assume they are not going to really show their best and not care, because normally these teams are much better. What we need to achieve here is to make sure we can definitely get the wins, and separate looks better.

Because even if you lose one, then you will be in profit. Parlay could be even better because of the return but if one gets a tie or a loss, then both are gone. That is why, since bot hare above the double threshold, I would highly suggest getting just one per bet and that way if one of them fails then you are going to get the return you want anyway and wouldn't be caring about the other.

I don't know what Brazil and Argentina planned in their game, but they didn't try at all, because they qualified for the World Cup, they didn't want to play well in their last game, Argentina lost to Ecuador, who played against them with 10 players, I wasn't expecting them to win the match because if you look at the odds they gave Argentina and Brazil, you will know that they will not perform well in the match, Carlo Accelloti needs to do well in Brazil, losing yesterday match is not good because the fans are expecting more than that from him.

I felt bad waking up this morning to know that Brazil and Argentina had joined hands together in spoiling my parlay bet slip of 4 different games which I gave a straight win to all the countries I favoured in my bet, the first two games Portugal, and England had already played to my prediction before I went to bed, waking up to find the rest two Argentina, and Brazil in reds.  I would have made use of the cash out though but I didn't made the bet with the intend to do that in the middle.

Why do I feel like Brazil treated the match against Bolivia as a practice match? They were already certain to qualify beforehand, therefore Carlo Ancelotti experimented and rotated players in this match, but it turned out that the experiment did not bring victory for Brazil. This is clearly a good achievement for Bolivia because with this victory Bolivia still has hope of qualifying for the World Cup.

Without Messi, Argentina had to admit Ecuador's superiority. The match was played at a high tension, and I think one of the factors that made Argentina lose was the red card they received in the 31st minute.

Apart from the fact that Brazil had already qualified for the world cup and thus doesn't need to stress his players further with the match, it's still important to know that going to Bolivia and getting all 3 points is very difficult. You can host Bolivia and thrash them but not when they host you. It's difficult playing there for foreign players because they are not used to such high altitudes while playing which gives the Bolivian players this advantage over other teams.

Big L for Brazil and Argentina. They're both losing with narrow score and it's all because they played with their B team. I forgot these are their last games in the WC qualifier. They were not risking their main players to play in this game. Congrats for you by mitigated your lose by winning in another bet.
However, it's a bad day for me caused by my expectation was so high for those nations.

unexpected results do happen in football all the time, and this was just one of those days, nothing to really to be shocked. I understand we do want things to change, but this isn't really the place for that, it is not really that great.

We can definitely cause this to get better returns, we just need to have better plans for getting it back, sure we may have lost some money, but if we do a better job and martingale this, we are not going to get favourites losing forever, eventually favourites will end up getting the win so we can make it back and profit. That's how things change and that's how we get better return. This should be what we are facing right now and nothing more. If we do that ,then martingale better returns should be the way to move.

It seems no one noticed how Germany is sitting comfortably at the bottom of the table that include Slovakia, Luxembourg and Nothern Ireland. Although, this is like just a beginning because they've only played one match each but it still counts. Moreover, I don't think any of us could have imagined Germany for once at the bottom of the table in a group like this.


The four teams in this group will play their second match today and Germany will face Nothern Ireland tonight. If they failed to win today again, their chances to play in the next World Cup will be dashed further.

I guess these days football is not played by big names again, you have to work so hard for every point now in football. I would even say when you are a big nation or club you tend to work more hard because of the expectations. In recent games I have not being impressed with this German side, each time they play they look so vulnerable.

The match against Slovakia was a big blow, this is a match they dominated and controlled very well, I expected them to win but at the end they lost 2-0.

It a good thing they bounced back in their second match against Northern Ireland, they won 3-1 and at least they are now 3rd on the standing having the same point with Northern Ireland.

By next international break I expect Theon to bounce back and be at least second on the standing.

This was definitely one of those betting days where everything went wrong. This isn't really that much improvement for any of us and many people lost money. We can't really see this be good for us, it's definitely a bad result. This has to be the result that will cause us to lose a lot.

If we can get a lot better return if we do this a good job, and if we do that then we are going to get the money we want from betting if games are not expected to finish this badly. This is not really a good job but we can hope for it to change. Argentina and Brazil ended up losing without any proper explanation, they just played without any care and they knew that they wouldn't really need these three points so they obviously didn't care.

The game between Argentina and Ecuador baffled me the most maybe because they conceded a red card earlier in the game before the coming of the spot kick of which Valencia blasted into the goal post. Argentina is already on top of the table with 38 points and I guess it was what led  to such performance like they gambled the game. And how on earth where they not even able to record even one shot on target...oops, it was a very hard game to accept. Tickets went red almost the most since the beginning of the international break.

Bolivia played so well and defensively while also managing the front line recording about 10 shots on target against Brazil's 3. Maybe that game couldn't go the Brazil way because of the spot kick. The break is over and we're heading back to leagues already. But I think this is not the right way to end the break with such reds on the slip.

I also didn't pay attention to the fact that they were already qualified before those matches, so I didn't consider the possible outcomes as seriously. Next time, I’ll need to be more attentive to every detail, although qualification is far from being the small matter. My expectations for both nations were high because I know their potential to absolutely dominate almost any opponent, let alone Ecuador and Bolivia.

In terms of betting, every small details count and should not be neglected. Argentina is far away from the other teams so it is pretty sure they won't be as serious as they used to be and after all their opponent is just under them so pretty good team.
Brazil in normal circumstances are unpredictable and even Ancelotti doesn't seem to change big things so far so I don't expect them much if they play normally, let alone playing without any valid reasons.

[UEFA World Cup Qualifiers]

Another international break started and nations will play against each other to secure a spot in the upcoming World Cup in North America.
Here is the list of games for the next two rounds for UEFA World Cup Qualifiers:


I find always a clear favourite team in both rounds, maybe Sweden - Switzerland in the 7th round and Wales - Belgium in the 8th round are interesting since both teams aren't very far from each others, otherwise the others seem to be unbalanced for me.

Yeah, the UEFA World Cup Qualifiers are about to start, but it's a bit boring. I've done this a few times before, but many of the matches are difficult to predict.

But it's better to just enjoy watching than to bet, because usually teams that are already behind in points won't play hard to win since they don't have a chance anymore.

The qualifiers in Asia are just as exciting.

[AprilioMP]

The qualifiers in Asia are just as exciting.

Round 4 Asia Zone is very exciting. 6 teams will fight to win position 1 in order to qualify for the World Cup. The six teams are divided into two groups.
The team, which is ranked second in their respective groups, will fight again in the next round.

As the opening match, Oman will face Qatar. Next Indonesia vs Saudi Arabia.
From the enthusiasm of fans, the Indonesian vs Saudi Arabia match will be the most awaited match. Indonesia has fans who are very enthusiastic every Indonesian national team plays.

Four round of Asian World Cup qualifying round become the most important match for several national team must secure the first standings position each group if want qualify to World Cup 2026. Arab Saudi and Qatar have advantage because become the host and AFC giving schedule for both national get many days recovering than other teams participants such as Indonesia team, Iraq and Oman. I am waiting for my national team Indonesia can secure first three points against Arab Saudi although the main goal keeper Emil Audero have absent at four round qualifying matches.

If can secure three points against Arab Saudi, Indonesia seems have advantage position for qualifying to World Cup although upcoming match will face Iraq, in other side Saudi Arabia for second matches against Iraq have several recovering days than Indonesia. However keep optimistic Indonesia national team will get three points against Arab Saudi and close the winning match against Iraq for qualifying to World Cup 2026.

I am very confident that Italy must go to the World Cup, we cannot not show up again and risk being forgotten, we must move and try to be the best in these access phases, we know it will be very hard but we have to do it and I am sure that we can do it, What worries me most is Norway, which is a tough team, but we'll see.

[RaltcoinsB]

After the disgrace of the Spain match, I hope we see a more serious national team that doesn't underestimate other teams. As Türkiye, we want to be in the World Cup, and finishing second in this group is our only chance. I hope we can get three points in the matches against Bulgaria and Georgia.
