  1. Re: Quarter-Final - Netherlands v Costa Rica > Saturday July 5th The Costa Ricans ran their legs off in the match that went into extra time with Greece. Holland got out of jail against Mexico but its telling how much depth the have on the bench when they can come on and change the game. Should be the end of the fairytale run for Costa Rica, expecting the Dutch to win this in 90 mins.

  2. Re: Group A - Cameroon v Croatia > Wednesday June 18th

    Will Eto'o play tomorrow? Is he injured or is it yet another conflict between Eto'o and the FA' date=' the coach or some players in the team. :D[/quote'] He won't be playing bar a miracle. He himself tweeted it. https://twitter.com/setoo9/status/478325608989360129 Can't see Cameroon getting anything out of this match, the Croats will want to win this at all cost and would be the more motivated of the two teams. Mandzukic back will be a boost to the morale of the team as well knowing they have someone tried and trusted upfront who can score for them.
  3. Re: Sweden v England - June 15 Can't judge much since i have not watched the matches from this group yet, Sweden on paper look good to at least get a draw out of this which they at least have to to keep hopes of making it to the next round alive. Sweden on the AH seems like a decent bet, thoughts anyone?

  4. Re: French Open 2012 Roger Federer -9.5 vs David Goffin 1.885 Pinnacle Federer had a minor brain fart against Mahut where he dropped a set, having had to go to four sets so far in his matches he will be licking his lips at having to face young gun David Goffin next and will want to wrap this up quick. Goffin the lucky loser has had quite a run beating Kubot in the last round but this is a massive match for him and the nerves will definitely be there when he sees himself across the net from one of the best players of all time in a big match against a crowd that will be rooting for his opponent. Federer will be looking to start fast off the blocks and if his serve is on he will be blitzing Goffin with his serve. Remember just earlier this year in the Aussie Open where Federer faced a even more highly rated young player in Mr Tomic and he took care of him playing sublime tennis with the crowd rooting for Tomic as well. He cleared a handicap like this in that match and i expect him to do that again. Fingers crossed.

  5. Re: Tennis - The US Open 2011 Good news is Irene got downgraded to a Tropical Storm so not as bad as expected hopefully things will start out smoothly. Not sure how badly the subways have been affected though even if they start it might be too really low crowd numbers since the subway is the main transportation to reach Flushing Meadows.

  6. Re: Tennis - 25-31 July Youzhny vs Granollers - Youzhny to win 1.64 Pinnacle I like the looks of Youzhny winning this match he has faced Granollers twice this season and has won both in straight sets including one on clay. He had previously only reached the quarters at Gstaad but has gone one better reaching the semis and has a good chance to get to the final against an opponent he has done well against. Granollers upset Wawrinka in the last round but Wawa has been prone to shocking results so far this season so i won't read to much into that. Youzhny lost out in the semis in Hamburg last week and should be able to reach the final in Gstaad.

  7. Re: Tennis - Wimbledon Lopez vs Murray - Lopez +7.5 games 1.66 Bet365 Ok so Murray is expected to win this but i just don't expect Lopez to get blown away. Murray is prone to having a brain fart or two during matches like against Ljubicic and he gets too emotional on court when things are going against him. I was impressed with the mental strength showed by Lopez against Kubot though he is known for his inconsistency. He had has back against the wall two sets down against an opponent who was serving well and was hitting good winners against him. Dug deep and pulled off the third set after that he was even match point down and set points down numerous times but hung in there and stayed in the game. The last time he played on centre court he gave a impressive performance against Roddick. He has been serving well so far and it will come in handy. After getting this far in the tournament i'm sure Lopez wants to do well and not give a dismal display. Should Lopez lose in three in a scoreline like 6-4,6-3,6-4 this would still be a winner. Fingers crossed.
