That's right both Jesus and Telles hurt their knees and are out. Still Jesus never had any effect for Brazil: had several games in the WC and not a single goal to show for it.

Apart from Partey, this is the one position they dont have a good enough backup (Nketiah) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Thought Croatia were poor yesterday but hey ho they managed get through. Can see them being brushed aside with ease in the next phase. Expect Spain and Portugal to go through today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmicway 1,333 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) The most extraordinary world cup bet I won but got nothing, It's world cup 1982. England had drawn with Germany 0-0 and Germany beat Spain 2-1. England are due to play against Spain in one of the three team groups that replaced the stage of eight that year. At the same time Italy were due to play against Brazil and everyone expected Brazil to win easily. It was a department store competition for a Toyota car rather than football betting as we know it today and the question was to name the pair of finalists, the winner and score of the final. So I write down Italy against Germany, 3-1 to Italy ! I can't remember now why I did n't say Italy v. England. England were playing well, defeating Spain and going top of the group was well within the realm of possibility. I supported England so why choose Germany ? Anyway I did. Italy beat Brazil 3-2 as we know, England drew 0-0 against Spain so Germany won the group, but there were more obstacles for both of them ahead. For Italy is was Poland in the semis - they won 2-0, reach the final. For Germany it was France and after a thriller match that ended in a 3-3 draw Germany won the penalty shootout. So we are in the final and Italy wins 3-1. What could be the odds for my prediction at the time it was made then ? I make it 100 to 1 or more. Real betting did not exist of course those years - only if somebody had friends in England. So I go to the department store to get my Toyota and what do they say ? They say to me you won nothing, a mrs Lossada is the winner ! Now Julio Lossada was the Urugayan right winger playing for Olympiakos Piraeus in the seventies. Maybe he settled in Greece after he finished with football - I don't know. But how many Lossadas do we have in Greece ? Impossibile. People called Gomez or Martinez yeah, sure. But Lossada ? So that was his wife and it was a gift from Olympiakos to her. Edited December 6, 2022 by cosmicway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be 9 after Brazil. For me that was always 50%-50% game. In other games we have clear favourites but if someone makes surprise it will be Morocco.

You have great chance to reach semi final whoever wins here. Spain attack is joke. Not one good offensive player. These guys Torres, Olmo, Morata, Asensio would not make bench for Brazil, England, Portugal, France... Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
