I might be wrong, but I foresee Brazil versus Belgium (i.e. South America versus Western Europe) in the quarter-final, just like:

in the other:

Ironically, although I feel sad for Japan, I'm also relieved they lost, simply because:

I happen to be supporting Brazil.

so now I can support Brazil wholeheartedly against Belgium! :)
Otherwise, if Japan had beaten Belgium, I would not have the heart to support either Brazil or Japan in the:

Just woke up.
:eek: Wow! This is the earliest post I've seen from you! :tongue:

Good morning.. I didn't bet..
Oh, then that's good! :)

Read the news and comments here..Must be an exciting match...
I was really not expecting Japan to score a single goal because, if I remember correctly, there were at least one or two occasions during the first half when all eleven Japanese players were in their own penalty box defending against Belgium's attack! :eek:

But after Japan managed to score their first goal during a quick counterattack only a few minutes after the second half started, which was soon followed by their second goal (from outside the penalty box), they became a bit more adventurous and defended less; but even then, Belgium's first goal was certainly a fluke header, which was soon followed by another header by the 1.94m-tall:

fifa.com/worldcup/players/player/290902
which the Japanese defenders marking him were simply not able to prevent because he was simply too tall for them to out-jump him! :frown:

Finally, the third (and winning) goal by Belgium during the last minute of injury time was also a bit lucky, in my opinion.

Gosh... It must have been a emo roller coaster for you ... 3k and Belgium score last minute...Lol :biggrin:
Anyway congrats BNB!

Thanks bro Meng, I am very lucky to keep my principal bet of $3000 plus winning another $900 nett.

I didn’t expecting the Belgium defence to be so weak at this stage of the tournament.
