I must have angered the futbol god's or something...3 stoppage time goals turn a 3-1 day into a 1-3 day and a 5 unit swing I can only keep positive though as Nigeria took a step towards qualifying and I did win the Cards Shown prop.

Yellow Card Count = 78

Germany OVER + Spain OVER 6.5 Group Points = LOSS
Russia to Finish Last in Group A +1000 (.2 units) = LOSS

Belgium 1H ML -110
Belgium 1H -1 +245 (.5 units)

Germany/Sweden UNDER 2.5 -105

Kicking myself for putting in the Mexico play so early as the -1 line is now +115/+120 depending on book.
