Is Japan worth a small shot given current circumstances?

[The_Man]

Brazil has already clinched, so they have no real motivation here. Not only that, but it seems like they just mess around sometimes and go through the motions. Japan is out and playing for nothing but pride now. Obviously Brazil has alot more talent, but how motivated will they be. This could be a who cares game for them and look to rest players or practice some new sets. Hve not seen Japan play at all, so are they any good on offense at all or how is the goalie?

Thanks.

"Poor Japan should get smacked. Maybe Brazil will be nice to Zico the former great player and now coach of Japan but I don't see this being much of a contest. The best Japan can do is a tie and even that is a long shot. No bet here. Im leaning to over since Brazil hasn't had a over yet in this world cup."

Change of plans. Bet Brazil ML to win $500

The person i was quoting recommends USA -0.5 +225 as his only pick of the day.

Straight bets 35-6-3 +15.40 units WC 2006

That looks like a good bet, but I have a problem betting on USA as I feel Bruce Arena is a clown coach. Hope you guys win that one though. Good luck.

Betting on Japan is not good. I've watched both their game and they're horrible. Brazil's bench could probably beat Japan's starters.

Brazil's bench can beat most other nations and will have no problem with the Japanese side.

I don't know if Brazil will go for the juggular or if they will simply play for the tie, but I do know that they will not let Japan beat them today.

It would be a monumental upset...not even if Japan had a sumo wrestler in goal.
