Also,

May take a stab on the Tunisian league, specifically Club Africain.

Last game of the season in this league. Club Africain leads Etoile du Sahel by two points. Last match is against ES Zarsis (already relegated). A victory here would make them champions. Hopefully we get -1.5 and -2 with respectable juice.

Here are the table standings:

It is expected that Club Africain will win, thus third place Esperance ST could conceivably catch Etoile du Sahel on a flat note as they face eachother. Could sort of be like Catania / vs Roma. It was pretty obvious when Inter scored the second goal, that Roma deflated and allowed Catania space for the equalizer. Same scenario here if Club Africain storms to a commanding lead; Etoile could lose interest in the second half. We'll see.

Best of luck to all.

I am on Chile as well, MA.

Now as for the 2nd match...not sure. Italy should win but may pass.

[rolltide]

chile have been real impressive...always a crapshoot betting on kids but looks like a good bet there

italy have best team in tourney

 

[hm2.0]

agree w/ Italy.

Chile has also impressed. In the match w/ Japan, the asian team appeared dangerous for the first 30 min and then the Chileans took over the match. Their GK is excl....they play aggressively for a South American team, or am I wrong w/ my general impression.

I'm on board with Italy today.

FORZA AZZURI!

 

[kingcapper+]

italy had a golden opp at the 93rd min to win it. fuckin wide open net, unbelievable

 

[Icemantbi]

I saw that Kingcapper. Fucken wide open net. FUCK!

 

[themadactuarian]

Them the breaks, brothers. Should be an interesting final.

Italy's side has four / five guys which are top prospects for teams like Juventus on loan to teams like Bari and Empoli. I take nothing away from the Japanese, but yesterday's result was a true disappointment.
