Based on stats from our free World Cup Mob Betting game, 88% of you expected Brazil to win, but only 5% of you expected it to be 2-1.
Well, I surely didn't expect that and actually had a 4-1 bet... I lost And I have only 1000 points so far, less than half of what's needed to be in top 100 leaderboard

Im somewhere between 100 & 150 rank i think. But I bet it also Brazil favour 3-0. This MM has been really shocking for me lol. So many good football teams have surprised with quite bad play. Dont know whats it about, but atm it feels like overall level of quality football is dropping.
So far its not even close to what last MM was or the MM before that, but I think it will get a lot better when the ring tightenes up (hopefully ).
Btw - 5% is quite much I think. Like really - who would of thought lol

I bet brazil 3-0 and I thought they may do it in the last ten minutes. Fair play though that korean goal came from nowhere but it was a hell of a goal. The first brazil goal was pretty good too.

I expected a draw.
This basterds from North Korea will be SHOT if they ashamed their country. They play to stay alive when return home, it is a sad truth about North Korea.
North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Il is lunatic, worse than Stalin, he will shot or hang his team if they play bad.
Football is not just a game for North Koreans, it's life or death for them. That is why they play their best against Brasil.
That says enough I think. I am stupid, I should have known it would not be a big score (but I watched the game and I have to say it could have been 3-0, 4-0) because Brazil wants to play 'efficient' football - or soccer or whatever you want to call the best game in the world (f**k poker!) - and the Northern Korea-players would get shot, to death, if they would lose badly. 2-1 must have felt good for the players I think, for both teams.

Shame about the first half.
WOW! Amazing goal! Maicon is the best rightwingback.

Damn! I was laughing about it today and still am actually, but it's pretty bad. I just hope and actually think it's not like that, but damn! Still, he makes me laugh and I guess that's always a good thing

2-0 here, and then the goal in the 89min normaly i would expect them to win higher, but their couch dunga plays so defensive and for him only count the result.
i think im gonna bet on very strange results from now on, like 4-4 so i get x100 points and win with 1 game

I bet 4-0, and when brasil made the second i thought there was going to finish with 4. North korea doesnt played bad at all. Bad game like more than half of the games in this world cup.

It seems that Brazil is losing its luster. Usually its a sign that their game is not evolving. It's really hard to win if you always have the same plays. THe other teams are most probably studying Brazil and are trying to adjust and catch up on their technique. That would spell disaster for Brazil if they don't adjust...

HAHAHAHHAHA I guessed it right NICE I allready lost my hope during the game when it was 2-0 to Brazil cause it looked like Korea haven´t got any chance of scoring a goal against Brazils good defence and so I went to bed(early morning next day). In the morning I checked the score and I was amazed It´s always fun to predict some score right. Hope I can reach to the top of that leaderboard this week

wow, 5% is a lot more than i thought. My place on the list is okay up to now. And i just pray Spain - Switzerland stays 0 - 0. That would mean really much points (1600 when I´m right) and i dont think that too many bet on that. That would be really cool. But more than 45 minutes to go for a Spanish attacking tornado...!
