Wanderlust Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 10 minutes ago, London Wanderer said: It's happening. I can feel it. Not put a bet on this tournament yet but I will today. Likelihood is I'll end up in the same boat as Eddie and Gonzo with their Brazil predictions. Edit: And my Canada / USA predictions. Are you going for an exact score? Bookies don't seem to be offering particularly good odds on Morocco winning and there's a lot of speculation about it being an AET result. I'd be interested to see what you can get as it looks like we're not alone in thinking this could be close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it too much to hope for a snapped cruciate as he runs up to take the penalty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does it on the run-up to the penalty spot, as long as the ball moves it’s whole circumference (or is it diameter?) it’ll be deemed to have been taken won’t it? This situation would lead to even further mirth and merriment around the globe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuck a tenner on anyway and put a tenner on the Swiss to win 1-0. Tend to bet with my heart, which is why I rarely do it 😁 Edited December 6, 2022 by London Wanderer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see whether that repetition is good preparation for a penalty in a World Cup knock out game - I hope not 😂 Hopefully Morocco bag one so we don’t see.

Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted December 6, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2022 The African nations excel in penalty shootouts in their nations cup. Seen a few go to 10 apiece and think think one went to 20 before someone missed. Not sure if Morocco were involved though. So Spain to win on pens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
