⚽⭐⚽ Rainbet’s BTT World Cup 2026 – Road to Glory ⚽⭐⚽

[Zaguru12]

Truly truly a tough opponent, I can't overtake mafia in Bookie, but I'm very happy we proceed to quarterfinals.

Funny this happened like the real life version, first 2 teams won in regular time and next 2 teams needed 'extra' time/penalties.

Now on we meet Team Naija!!

I think we all didn’t suffer enough in the group stage but damn this one hell of a knockout stage, I had thought that our round of 16 tie will be one which we will suffer more but it wasn’t rather it was just this game, we new after the Spain vs Belgium game that were definitely in for a nervy end to this round because we need out bet slip in and we were trying to avoid an early yellow card due to the penalty question and also not more than 2 yellow cards also in the first half that went in really fast but the four corner needed in the second half was seriously a big one, 30 seconds to end of the game and we got it.

The real World Cup was on the pitch but definitely the pressure was on us here. That third Argentina Goal didn’t send Argentina to the last four alone but eliminated two big opponents here too.

Team goal:
and to prove to our opponents and counterparts that football is as easily an African sport.

Two African teams in the semifinals, I guess now y'all know better!

I looked at the path and we can only meet in the final, I don’t want to consider other meetings again.

Ouch, what a loss.. The only thing that could kick us out was Argentina covering a -1,5 goals handicap while scoring 3 or more goals in the process.
That goal in the 121st minute was truly tough to take.

A tough nut to swallow. A 121st-minute third goal, and the semifinals slipped away. Team Little Italy gave it everything, but even under the leadership of our great captain Trofo, who managed four correct scores, we couldn't overcome a strong S.E.A. United. Congrats to them! Now it's time for a period of reorganization within the team.

It is what it is, we watch from the sidelines - can't win them all
That being said, the new round is ready.

GG South America - we got a bit luckier in the end.
I personally will need a small break from the World Cup......my heart almost stopped beating whenever a goal alert came in on flashscore.

GG, it was an epic ending to our match, we tried everything we possibly could to turn it around, even going all out and throwing five forwards onto the pitch during extra time but you managed to defend incredibly well.
Ultimately Messi not scoring was one of our main demises, we got a lifeline out of nowhere when Saka didn't start, we just needed a goal or two from Messi to seal the deal, we were so confident because he had scored in every single game of this World Cup, plus he scored in the last four matches of the last World Cup too, but just like his goal scoring streak came to an end, our Road to Glory has unfortunately turned into a "Road to the Asado"

I'm very proud of our squad, we gave it our all and fought with everything we had until the last second.
Team WPRA, you deserve to advance further so keep enjoying the ride! As for us the tournament is over and it's time to fire up the barbecue.

Fellas, forgot to mention - this deserves another tag.

Considering that there are only 2 games per round, the betslip rule has been changed.
It is written in the form, but mentioning it transparently here as well.

The new rule is:

Submit a 10$+ ticket from Rainbet with a minimum of 2 selections from the semifinal games with a minimum of 1.50 odds per selection. The ticket will be paired against your opponent's and the one with higher winning odds will win the round. Both losing tickets will lead to a tie.

GG South America - we got to the semifinals!
::/::

Congratulations and GG.

Darxiaomi ( El Capi),  El Che, you know we'll always have the tattoo of having been Team South America on our souls  

[Nheer]

Congrats Nheer and West Africa on advancing to the semifinals!
Looks like our teams will face each other

Congrats to you too! Looks like one of us is getting a free trip home after the semifinals. Hopefully it's not West Africa... See you on the pitch soon 
 It hasn't been an easy road so far but luckily we made it this far. The focus has always been to survive each round and progress gradually.

You're also the favorite to win the Golden Ball at the moment after my team eliminated Trofo's team. I guess you have to thank my team because of that. lol
And look who's waiting for you in the semifinals none other than my team.

Not trying to intimidate you, but good luck. Congrats to us for already securing 0.005 btc each..

It will be an intense match, like the semi-final match between France vs Spain... We will fight who will reach the final later, which is clear we will try to keep winning.
If we lose, we will get a decent reward, of course, we will continue to fight for the WC title on the road to glory..

[goodpunt]

It's nice to see that every group is represented in the semifinals!
So we have two teams each from Africa and Asia left - so the possibility of derbies is quite high.
Out of all semifinalists, three teams are still undefeated and one team survived all death matches since R32!
Should be cracking matches - best of luck to all!

Yes, it's a tough feeling when, after a lot of effort and time invested by all the team members, you lose because of such a small detail, a late goal in the referee's extra time of the game.
The same situation was for my team, remember, a late goal by Brazil in the 10th minute of the referee's extra time that knocked us out of the competition.
Unfortunately, that's life and we have to move on, and focus on other competitions.
I wish the remaining participants the best of luck.

My team was eliminated in a similar way. We were waiting for a goal in the Portugal vs. Spain match, and Bernardo Silva had the perfect chance but couldn't convert it... That cost us a place in the next round. I hope there will be more competitions with a similar concept in the future because it's genuinely very interesting.
