World Cup News Australia

Tomorrow will be the big game where the Socceroos will try their best to send the Spaniards home winless. I hope the Aussies win World Cup Newsand not just because I put my money on them, as I wrote in my last bet of the week post. Check that post to see exactly how I backed them. See what News.com.au has to say about this very important game.

World Cup News USA

While over in the US of A the Yanks are talking up their next game against Portugal. CBSNews reckons Team USA faces dangerous opponent in Next World Cup game. According to one fan, Frank Lugten, “The United States will wipe the floor with Portugal, I’m pretty sure.” Well, there’s nothing wrong with a bit of confidence I always say. For his sake they better win otherwise he’ll be eating some crow.

World Cup News England

Looks like England will be exiting the World Cup soon as well. According to this report from the BBC some players had tried to skip their English duty. This was something that Harry Redknapp had quite a bit to say BBC Radio 5 live’s Sportweek. According to Harry England doesn’t have a prayer in winning the World Cup in Doha in 2022. Seems weird that they skipped the 2018 World Cup altogether.

World Cup News Italy

I know of a few people who are saying that Italy threw their game against Costa Rica knowing that their loss would force England out of the World Cup. Personally I believe this is a whole lot of BS because if they lose against Uruguay they”ll be out of the World Cup as well.

According to the theguardian Italy is considering calling up Ciro Immobile to face Uruguay.

Football Sports Jokes

For this weeks sports jokes I thought I would feature a couple of football sports jokes and then finish off with a video featuring some funny sports moments of 2013. It even has one or two funny football sports moments.

Football Sports Jokes Takes You To An AFL Grand Final

A man with tickets to the AFL Grand Final finds his seat and relaxes. As he sits down, a man comes down and asks if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him.

“No”, he says. “The seat is empty.”

“That’s incredible”, said the stranger. “Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for the AFL Grand Final and not use it?”

“Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first Grand Final we haven’t been to together since we got married in 1967.”

The stranger replies, “Oh…I’m sorry to hear that. That’s terrible. Couldn’t you find someone else – a friend or relative, or even a neighbour to take the seat?”

The man shakes his head. “Nope. They’re all at the funeral.”

Australia vs Spain World Cup Bet Of The Week

On my last bet of the week I placed a wager on the England vs Italy World Cup game. As it turns out I won that bet. For this weeks Australia vs Spain World Cupbet of the week, seeing as how the World Cup fever is still going strong, I placed a wager on Australia to beat Spain in the up and coming World Cup Game.

I know that just about everybody thinks that Australia is going to lose that game, especially because Tim Cahill isn’t playing. That’s why the odds are so high, which makes for a pretty good win if the Socceroos manage to pull it off. Still, I think that Australia has been playing a lot better than Spain so, regardless of what everybody else thinks, I reckon they have a pretty good chance.

 An Aussie Win In Australia vs Spain match?

These are my reason why I reckon the Aussies will win in the Australia vs Spain match. When Spain played the Netherlands they got thumped 5 -1. When they played Chile they lost 2 – 0.

Now lets look at how the Socceroos went. When they played the Netherlands they lost 3 -2. It was an exhilarating game. When they played Chile the Aussies lost 3 -1. All in all it’s my opinion that the Aussies were the better players when compared to how the Spanish played. I reckon if they can only keep up their good form they have a chance at winning that game.

How I Bet On The Australia vs Spain game.

So, lets have a look at my Sportingbet (check out their $700 free bet offer) screenshot to see exactly how I placed my bets on this weeks bet of the week.

  • Australia vs Spain 2nd both to score: I place a buck on both teams to score in the second half. If that becomes a reality I’ll win $3.10
  • Australia vs Spain first team to score: I put a dollar on that nobody will score. This is entirely possible in soccer. If nobody scores throughout the game I’ll win $17.
  • Australia vs Spain to win: Finally I placed five bucks on the Aussies to win. A win will get me $36.75 That alone will do me 😉

The most I can win is $39.85, if option 1 and 3 come in. This would be pretty good considering I only outlaid seven bucks. Even if the second one came about I’d still get $17.

Didn’t place a double chance bet on this game because I didn’t like the odds.

Did you place a bet on the Australia vs Spain game. If you did which way did you go.
