2026 FIFA World Cup - Picks + Some Fun Facts

USA 2 much 4 old Belgium squad that only reached here, because Senegal tried to milk the clock with 2 goals ahead and failed even if they were the better team, but didn´t use the counter attacks they had. Pure arrogance got punished. Just for the game Belgium had no chance and USA is a good team and will run all over Belgium.
If they do not sto playin soccer with a lead I am sure they can win the game by 2 or more and of course...if they fail, there's still Mr Trump that will find a reason why Belgium may not advance..maybe they sent some ice people to the locker room where they find drugs or something like that 
But I don't think they need presidential support this time, maybe later vs Argentina - Trump vs Milei, wrestling vs chainsaw
USA ml
Spain ml (2 or 3:1), portugal luck and CR7 hopefully end today, they do not earn it
good luck

Some Fun Facts
Portugal's best finish at FIFA World Cup was in 1966 (England) where they finished 3rd
Spain's best finish at a FIFA World Cup was in 2010 (South Africa) where they finished 1st
Belgium's best finish at a FIFA World Cup was in 2018 (Russia) where they finished 3rd
USA's best finish at a FIFA World Cup was in 1930 (Uruguay) where they finished 3rd
None of the above teams have ever won more than 1 medal at a FIFA World Cup. Portugal, Spain & Belgium all have a 4th place finish though.

USA to advance -107 (10.07u to win 10u)
Portugal to win World Cup +800 (0.25u to win 2.00u)
Not much to say here. Drank the Kool-Aid not just with team USA but also team Mexico as well. Where the heck was that buzz saw team USA squad that had Paraguay doing circles? Belgium all of sudden decided to play footie? Not the same team from the group stage or the game against Senegal.
July 7
Argentina -1.5 +106 (1u to win 1.06u)
Switzerland to advance +145 (1u to win 1.45u)
It would be really cool to have an all CONEBOL QF but Switzerland have been at "home" since playing Canada in Vancouver. They haven't left Vancouver since then. That being said they don't have a lot of travelling support so I suspect Colombia will have the "home" field today in Vancouver.
Enjoy the games today everyone

Argentina -1.5 +106 (1u to win 1.06u)
Switzerland to advance +145 (1u to win 1.45u) 
Unfortunately I missed all of my big plays and they all involved the host teams. Lost a 5 unit play on South Africa against Canada, Lost a 5 unit play on Mexico to advance over England and then lost 15 units on the USA to win and advance against Belgium. I actually thought Colombia would have been a better match up for Argentina even though they would probably go all out to make life "rough" for Messie. Switzerland is dangerous imo and as of right now I'm leaning towards them in that QF match. For now I'll enjoy the day off. Princess Lady Bearington actually picked England, Belgium and Switzerland to advance but did not make them official so as I explained to her last night they don't count.

I look at how Morocco imo dominated the Netherlands. 70% ball possession, more shots, more quality attempts on net. To me that was their best version and I think we see this today regardless of injuries. I think this match gets to extra time so my angle is the draw. Could Morocco win in regulation? +0.5 for Morocco is +145 so I'll play this as well in the chance Morocco wins in regulation.
France / Morocco Draw +280 (1u to win 2.8u)
Morocco +0.5 +145 (1u to win 1.45u)
Princess Lady Bearington coming in hot with her heavy faves again with France to qualify at -350 (3.5u to win 1u)

I want the semi-final that we all want. England and Argentina. They'll both find a way today to advance.
England to advance parlayed with Argentina to advance +100 (1u to win 1u)
Argentina / Switzerland 1H U0.5 +140 (1u to win 1.4u)
Argentina / Switzerland U2 +119 (1u to win 1.19u)
Princess Lady Bearington likes Norway to advance at +179 (1u to win 1.79u)

I'm not likely to recoup all of my losses so I'll just try and finish strong. Both TT heavily juiced to the under yet Over 2.5 is -105? I'll take a stab at a 2 to 2 type game with France advancing in Extra Time either in the 30min or PKs.
France / Spain O3 +159 (1u to win 1.59u)
Interestingly PLB does not have an official play but does lean Spain to advance.

I think this game does not get to extra time so its just a question of who gets to win the match in 90. I'll take Argentina which gives them a chance to defend their championship against Spain. Very tough game to call imo though.

It would be interesting to see what happens should Argentina score first and try and hold the lead instead of chasing. Don't think it really matters, by hook or by crook Argentina will be lifting the trophy today imo.
Argentina 1H ML +400 (1u to win 4.00u)
Argentina to win the final +136 (1u to win 1.36u)
PLB likes Spain today to win the final at -150 (1.5u to win 1u)

Tough World Cup for me personally. Although when I look back through my records starting with the 2010 World Cup I find that this is a tournament that I do not normally have success in.
