Slava Ukraini!
Congrats to France for reaching World Cup final. Conceding early goal for Morocco was worst possible scenario. It meant that they won't be able focus on defense for whole game, trying to move game to extra time and penalties. They were fighting well, but France win was deserved.
After all, with so many upsets on this tournament, having France and Argentina in the final is somewhat expected scenario, they were on of top 5 favorites.

I was wondering why noone was discussing the tournament in the main thread (that's how we do it in the german board) the whole time and am glad that I now found this thread Cheesy
I'm not really sure which one is main thread when there multiple topics for World Cup were made. I don't post in these main topics because discussion is impossible there with so many spammers. I prerfer self-moderated topics or prediction pool discussions like this one.

I thought exact result in France match was gonna get me some boost up the table but no such luck. Seems all of us on top had France 2:0 except Slissy so at least I got closer to him. My bet, a simple ML on France passed as well, so I am counting this day as success. Needed it after yesterday bitter pill Smiley

I was really impressed by Griezmann, he plays everything for this France squad and i will have to check his heatmap. It should be box to box today with several key moments in his own box as well.

What a great game this was to watch Cheesy

When France scored 1-0 so early I already thought that it was gonna be a total beating for morocco... After the 2-0 it was even more intense as I was hoping (sorry Slissly) for France not to score a third goal...

So for now I am sitting on rank 1 and wish everyone good luck for the remaining 2 games Wink

Partly for spam reasons... main threads get a lot of spam posts, while pool participants, being paying members, actually have something decent to say with money riding on their predictions. That's the idea anyway, I do spew quite a bit of nonsense even when I'm bottom table only playing for yellow caps haha.

And yeah, H2H more correct outcomes (doesn't matter exact close or correct) counts as tiebreaker, so Slissy got more results (35 correct results) than you did (33 correct results). 11 exact results is 2 more than the next best one, not bad!

Depends on how the tournament was setting i think, but normally Superbru tiebreak its:

-Most exact scores
-Most Close scores
-Most corrects scores

You can find the info in the superior corner clicking in the three dots if i dont remember bad.

Good luck to all who still can fight for some prizes.

I was thinking that the most exact scores would be the factor at first aswell but I got 33 points through exact scores and Slissy got 24 points through exact scores.

I just took a closer look on the app and found out:

When two or more players are tied with the same amount of points, the player that predicted more correct results will be placed higher. Therefore, logically thinking, having more exact scores means that the other person probably predicted the winning team more often and is placed higher.

I wasn't expecting to end up that high on the leaderboard with only 3 games to go (so excited for todays match).

I have one question regarding Superbrus ranking system. Is it correct that even though Slissly and I share the most points, he is rank 1 because he has more yellow caps than me?

I kinda wish Alvarez didn't get the second goal as I would have gotten an exact score. I thought 2-0 was already so risky thinking of how tight Croatia normally plays. I did climb back 1 spot so it's okay, now the problem is another game of draw experts, but is it too risky to take?

Turned out, that Argentina didn't need di Maria, not even in 2nd half since it was pretty obvious, when Argentina was in a very good position after leading 2-0 already at half time.  Cheesy
So, di Maria will be fully recovered for a possible final against France or Morocco.

Yaaaaa I was gutted because it cost me 1 point in the quiz, but I guess they never needed him AND he can totally start the game, or play a very good second half to chase a game or whatever. Anyway, Morocco is also a good finalist, I would love to see that battle, France of course is not bad too, but we are guaranteed a great final whatever it is.

As for the pool, I’m in 8th, fast running out of games to be able to get a top 3 place Sad
Might have to be a bit inventive in the remaining 3 games to try & pick results that others don’t.
You have a real chance for top three if Slissy and sam00 make few mistakes, and anyone who finishes in top 10 did a great job.
Good luck LFC_Bitcoin and may the best predictor win Smiley

Hey, notblox1! Your main goal is practically realized  Wink
Having lost the chances for the first two places, with a light heart I make not those forecasts that are real, but those that I would like to see, so the last results are all in the negative for me. I hope I can readjust and make adequate predictions in those other pools when the club season resumes.
No it's not my friend Smiley
There are 9 more maximum points in play for three matches left in this world cup, and anything can change with top positions.
I don't know exact math who lost all chances but you still have it, depending how players above you score in rest of the matches.
What we all need is prediction of exact scores for this matches, and that is not so easy thing to do.

We have Argentina in final now and tomorrow we are going to see if they are playing with France or Morocco.
There are only three more matches until the end of this fantastic world cup, and situation in Supebru table is very interesting. Smiley
Trofo played with his heart for draw in Croatia match, and only one guy FmbetBru correctly predicted 3:0 for Argentina.
Slissy with sam00 are still holding first and second place with same points, but things can easily change in next matches.



Maybe we can have one more special bet on Sportsbet, who is going to win first place in Supebru Wink

No surprises last night in the Argentina vs Croatia game. Croatia can be very proud of their performances at another World Cup but sadly it was one step too far. Messi dominated the game, can’t believe he’s 35, if he wins the final he’s the confirmed GOAT imo.

France vs Morocco tonight, surely France will win to set up an absolute blockbuster of a final.

Who else think the penalty was a wrong call? I don't know if Modric has told it in real or not but few media is covering that he told after the match. I believe too that it was a wrong call. In no way, it should be a penalty call, same as the other two in favor of Argentina. First one against Saudi Arabia and second one against Poland if I'm correct.

ME ME  Cheesy
Unlucky me! Got 37 win but most of them are CLOSE result.

I don't think Morocco is going any further.
I think so but it's not going to be the same as Argentina vs Croatia I think. Morocco will push hard, they have proven them already.

Why no one look at it from the bottom. I have the greatest performance ever in a pool LOL

Looking forward to who will join Argentina on Sunday. France shouldn't understimate Morocco if it doesn't want to end like Belgium, Spain or Portugal.  Cheesy
I don't think Morocco is going any further. Obviously they had a great world cup run so far which they can proudly tell to their grandchildren and to the coming generations. Belgium was a team who did not find their own ground, Spain lost because of being too defensive, Portugal team management is responsible for their bad performance. I am not underestimating Morocco but they are yet to find a team who is capable to stop the lucks they had in all previous matches. France is dancing and I don't think it's going to stop until the final match.

My bet, France will win and we will see a great show of the earth in the world cup final, no matter who will win but a final that we can remember all. I remember the last ODI world cup win because of that unbelievable performance by Ben Stokes. Different sports, different county, different sportsmen but I would like to see something great will happen in the world cup football final too. May be it will be Messi or Mbappe or anyone else.

Cool what a moment with Argentina in the semifinals!! the intensity of the Argentine players in each ball they played was crazy... Great rival Croatia.



Argentina...! Ganoooooooo!!!




I knew they would win although I didn't expect such an easy win for them,without removing nothing to Argentina super game yesterday especially in the second half,Croatia is a clear indication that their golden players are getting old,yet they made history one time in World Cup final and one time in the semi final in two consecutive World Cups.

Argentina continue their unbreakable spell of never losing or being eliminated in the semi finals,they even have won one such event in the distant year of 1986 when Maradona was at his peak performance.

Argentina won and Portugal lost. What can you make out of this? When this world cup started last month, all the attention was on two players - Messi and Ronaldo. Argentina treated Messi with utmost respect. Other players, such as Enzo Fernández and Leandro Paredes made sure that he is not being held down by the opposition defenders. This enabled Messi to play freely. Now see what happened to Ronaldo. The coach humiliated him by not including him in the starting XI. He didn't received much support from the other players. And now, the results are there for everyone to see.

And we should not forget di Maria, who'll most likely come into the game 2nd half at least, or even first half already? We don't know yet.

di Maria, man, you think he deserves a start and then he sits it all out but that was genius now he is full refreshed and ready he should play a full game.
Turned out, that Argentina didn't need di Maria, not even in 2nd half since it was pretty obvious, when Argentina was in a very good position after leading 2-0 already at half time.  Cheesy
So, di Maria will be fully recovered for a possible final against France or Morocco.

It's a bit sad to see how unlucky Croatia has been today because Croatia was really playing a good world cup. And conceding 2 goals against Argentina in first half made it almost impossible for Croatia to get back in the game as we know how Argentina has an incredible good defense and a good keeper.

Looking forward to who will join Argentina on Sunday. France shouldn't understimate Morocco if it doesn't want to end like Belgium, Spain or Portugal.  Cheesy

Man what can i say, we are in the final again, i hope we can win this one Messi deserve this so much.

I think it was one of the most easy wins in this World Cup for Argentina, but i also think it was because Argentina was really sharp in offensive, and the two goals in five minutes change all the game. The third , was pure Messi magic and Alvarez its in a super moment.

About the bets... i was really close to win a big one with the freebet.



Great World Cup by Croatia we here have a lot of croats descent , and entire villages that are 90% of Croatian descent so we have really good friendship with the Croat people and nation.

For example this one.

Croatia didn't started game bad, but Argentina simply punished for every their mistake. How you can dream about winning semifinal when you make such mistakes like when Argentina scored 2nd and 3rd goal. That 3rd goal was simply piece of art by Messi. And after all, how many serious moments to score Croatia had? Difficult to remember.
Deserved win of Argentina, but still, huge respect for Croatia, they already done much more than most of us expected.

Now I am pushing it and I know it will bite me in the ass, but I am also gonna say, Messi shoots first and misses the penalty. We have a way of destroying dreams of big footballing nations.

Damn man, you got me bit in the ass too. I put in a bit more than I should have on Croatia in various ways. FT. ET. Penalties haha... No matter. You had an amazing run with Croatia.

The worst is, I hedged with an Argentina Betbuilder that was just short of 1 Messi tackle to win (I don't even know why I thought it was a brilliant idea, I thought it would go 0-0 and pressure him to press hard):


I did have earlier bets on Argentina but after the Croatia massive win against Brazil, I thought why not...

@Harko: Argentina Morocco final. It might actually be even more epic than France!
