If there's odd on Australia not scoring for the game bet on that

Betfair have Mertesacker at 47-1 for the first goal scorer. I have had a 5 er on. Ridiculously high odds.

I have to support Germany for this one, simply because I have them in the NSC Sweepstake.

Hailsham, he has serious Glaucoma and has to have wide wide glasses. Better that Clarence Seedorf, who is absolutely useless as a commentator!

Deutschland erwartet dass jeder Mann seine Pflicht tut.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

With the formation we've gone for we are going for the 0-0 draw.

Very defensive set up by Pim.

 

[perseus]

Officials are doing funny walks. It must be the peyote.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Only thing we have more of at the match is supporters.

Can't decide who I want to lose most. Really don't want to have to play Aus in the next stage - they will raise their game against us. ALways want Germany to get thrashed. So I guess I want a draw

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Aus basiacally playing 6 in mid

 

[1066familyman]

3-1 Germany.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

I'm going for a 1 - 1 draw

got a sneaky feeling that Australia will get something from this game

Players to watch

Per Mertesacker (born 29 September 1984 in Hannover) is a German footballer who plays as a defender for Werder Bremen and the Germany national team. Despite his sometimes intimidating height, his game is unusually clean for a defender, evident by his relatively few bookings. He is known for having a penchant of scoring headers from set-pieces and corners due to his height advantage.

Per Mertesacker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Betting: I would tend to put a bet on another defender scoring from a header.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

I think we are going to try and hold them for 70 and then throw Kewell and Kennedy on for the last 20 to try to pinch one.

Will fail miserably.

 

[1066familyman]

Anyone got a decent bet I can chuck on? Still got some money in the William Hill account? 3-1 Germany?

I have £2 on Germany 3-1 @ 9/1, also £2 on Germany 2-1 @ 7/1

I can only conclude Betfair know I've put him in my fantasy football team.
