Talking about ugly football, France is the most perfect example. Croatia did all the game in the first half and they got knocked by an own goal and a very doubtful penalty. It looked to me like the referee clearly was in favor of France, anyway the winner cannot be judged they say. I feel very sorry for Croatia.
France scored so much goals against Croatia looks like they already won even though there's 20 minutes left. My prediction got destroyed after Croatia scored during the 1st half I had 1-0 France together with the joker. The only hope I have left is the bracket prediction I don't remember which team I chose to win though. 
Gained 266 pts with my Belgium vs England Prediction. Let see if my prediction at France vs Croatia will be right. Got them at 3-1 with France winning the world cup. Currently it is 2-1 at Half Time and I think I am on the right track as of the moment, I know I won't win the pool anymore I just want to see my name climb up to the leaderboards. Goodluck to your World Cup predictions everyone.
^ None yet. But it would be fun to do 'who scores higher for the 2018/19 season' and 'which club finishes higher on the table', just like last season. And maybe some bets on some of the big games of the season like City vs LFC, or Chelsea vs Arsenal, etc etc...
Edit: Ok on our CRO vs FRA bet. Glhf.

I see Chelsea signed Jorginho today & appointed a new manager. He’s supposed to be really good Jorginho, I’ve never paid much attention to him though.
I’m just smoking a blunt watching Belgium vs England, I had 2-1 to Belgium in the pool. It’s 1-0 Belgium at HT.
Oh... And here I just thought there's absolutely no possiblity that Chelsea is gonna sell Kante. How does that signing affect Kante in Chelsea's first 11?
Kante deep lying to break up attacks with Jorginho also deep next to him acting as a playmaker.
Maybe a new formation?
4-2-3-1
I’m no expert though.
And thanks for the support buwaytress, I could do with the 0.03 bitcoin’s to spend on some new trainers
Predictor -
Hoping I can hold on to 2nd place, I still have my joker to play. Trofo is too far ahead now & I don’t think I or anybody else will catch him.

Rooting for you buddy, but I'm happy to see both of you in Top 2, and top 10 still having everything to play for! Trofo's got to have Croatia to win (right Trofi? heh) so I guess any of the top 5 backing France has everything to play for.
I still have my France to win World Cup bet active @9.14: https://www.bitcoinrush.io/sportsbook/ShareBet?id=j%2Fv00nMx77xuhGGEyVV%2FRfLHOUSVR92TzZTmnZACJ78%3D
And have a hedge on Croatia to win @4.95: https://www.bitcoinrush.io/sportsbook/ShareBet?id=NS1ChhRp66v9ocAtNqSTRPvm0yhyUFLlRv6WUt3O2Ug%3D
But if the game goes to penalties and Croatia wins, I lose both. Such is life!
Well you did a wrong choice on Croatia to win the game, you should have choose Croatia to qualify or Croatia to win the World Cup, depending on the sportsbook you are betting and Bitcoinrush is one of the best, probably would have the options I mentioned.

I believe I did the job of securing first place with almost 700 points from semi final games and I added another 200 today (had 3:1 for Belgium and used Joker).
You have the chance of winning the pool as well as the grand prize (BTC), and there's also a chance that your team wins the World Cup tomorrow. Best of luck, bro. And best of luck to who are still on the race for top 5

Remember there will be scores from Bracket challenge added as well. There is not a lot of points there but you guys are very close to each other so every point will count.

You’re 1st on the bracket challenge too, I think it’s in the bag for you. The bracket challenge is a lot closer so nobody is far behind each other in that. The real points are to be made tomorrow though. Will be relatively happy if I can come 2nd or 3rd overall.

I see very strong competition to enter in the top 5, a lot of users are only 100 points distance to each other. If someone has a Joker to use too like LFC_Bitcoin things will be interesting after tomorrow game ends. I had England 0-0 as I thought they would try to beat Belgium through penalties but I was wrong. I insist to have France vs Croatia 0-0 tomorrow too with a jolly in it , not that will change anything but just for fun.

The competition is going to its end and it is getting tighter for the leaderboard especially to compete top 5. I did earn 532 points for correct result of Belgium vs England and I used my joker on it but too bad I missed to use the bonus point. 1 last match to predict, correct score prediction will be the only one to boost position. Unluckily, no joker for me for the final match and hopefully my prediction will be correct and I can finish on top 5.
Looks like you got your wish! Joker on it too, I hope? I used my Joker on a goal fest result, 0 points. And couldn't even get anything from the bonus. That definitely puts me out of reach no matter the other outcomes since Max I could get tomorrow is 400++ even with 60 from bonus.
Unfortunately I didn't use my joker i'm saving it for the final match tomorrow. You still have a chance if you predict everything correctly and leea, hugo, slaman misses all of their prediction. I have France to win for now I might change it tomorrow because of Croatia's previous playoff matches.
Now it's 2-0 Belgium. Please no last minute goal I have Belgium to win 2-0 for ~300 pts.
Edit : I still have a small chance for 5th place never lose hope.

@lfc I'm probably going to take a sidebet for higher placed finish with tokeweed. Liverpool will always be my choice, see if he wants to stick with his Man Utd. Bookies like the Red Devils.

Well done to Croatia, they deserved to play in the final. England showed just a pathetic gameplay tonight with Harry Cane in total shadow, in fact I don't remember if he got a ball tonight. Croatia this year have world calibre players, but against France it will be tough if not impossible for them to win.
Did you see how Croatia played? They been beating down Kane, Lingaard, Young and a couple others, and were getting away with some of it.
Anyway, I could def see them win it depending on how France reacts to Croatia's rough play. And I could see it already... Poor Giroud, Mbappe, Pogba and Kante... They gonna take a beating.
Work or not, France will get a beating. Croatia doesn't have it any other way to play it but to up the intensity by a couple of notches now.
but I hope Croatia will win in this tourney, I always like the idea of underdogs winning.
Yeah, I think the majority of the world will now be supporting them. Even though, they were a little bit rough with England, and gave them some tough love. I think they are a decent team, and I like some of their players like Loveren, and Modric. France aren't exactly a pushover though, and will fancy their chances here. France are favourites & with the players they’ve got they really SHOULD win. I hope Croatia do it though.
Side bet? I got Croatia for 10 bucks vs your 25.
I think it's a fair price based on the odds offered at Nitrogen. And it's just a small 'fun'bet.France win you pay me $10
Croatia win I pay you $25
??
Yup. But check the latest line for "Who will win the World Cup" at Nitrogen now and I'll give you a better price just so that nobody will think that I'm trying to take advantage of anyone. I just want a fun bet made vs somebody in the forum. Lol.
Let’s dance
My 10 for your 25? Me Croatia and you France? Please quote to confirm.
Affirmative
Bonus challenges open in about 15 mins guys! I don't have any bets for today. Just want to sit back and watch the goals flow (please flow, I'm bored). Got my Joker for a 5 goal spree, but maybe will tone it down to 4 goals. They better deliver, so I can break into top 3 haha.
Good luck to everyone. tokeweed, I'll take you on sidebets for EPL, don't worry. I've to back LFC here cause France are itching to right their last Final fiasco.

What bets have you guys made on the EPL?
I used my joker on the final tomorrow.
