It was an OG.
Subasic almost did a Karius
The original shot/cross from Griezmann was on target though?
All bets gone by half time. Sums up my world cup
Because it was a cross it doesn't count as it needs to be a 'shot' on target
I'm having fun with 2 build a bets. Happy with my profit for this world cup.
I'm probably just under even as all my bets have been massive odds. Had a laugh with it though. Messi getting booked in the 95th minute was my worst part though
Finally able to log in to 365.
And thanks, ref, for screwing my HT draw bet.

That's a bit unfair imo. Willian scored a few goals like that from cross/shot freekicks and they counted as his goals.
Silly rule. What if Griezmann says it was a shot?
Who else's goal can it count as if it goes in though? If it's not a shot and it takes a deflection it's an og
Lost my qualifying bet, had under 5.5 @1.01 
So Griezmann can just say it was a shot? Who's to argue with what he was thinking?
Aside from my bet now, because that isn't important. It's a silly rule imo.
If I scuff a pass and it goes in who's goal is it? If it's on target it's a shot. Whether it was meant to be a pass or a shot doesn't matter.
No it's not though is it. If it's obvious you're trying to pass it's a pass
Not really, there's always debates on "was that a pass or a shot" and "'cross come shot" things.
I'm an impulsive idiot. Free bet for Croatia to score twice @ 5.00, but cashed out way too early. And then put that on 7 or more goals with everything I cashed out.
Idiot.
Idiot.
£75 in the bag, put money on France to win at start of tournament.
Had France to win from the beginning.
Put my qualifying bet on France to lift the trophy.
In-play £50 on France to win and BTTS.
Also got pay outs coming (hopefully??) On Lukaku and Ronaldo top scorers e/w.
Very nice day today.

Well that turned out ok. Had:
1. Croatia to score 2+ goals and Croatia 6+ corners. £10 returned £230 (Paddy Power)
2. Griezmann to score, Vrsaljko to be booked, over 1 card, over 35 throw ins, under 13 corners, Result France or Croatia. £1 returned £15 (Bet365)
3. Griezmann & Mbappe to score, over 2.5 goals, France to win. £10 returned £220 (Ladbrokes)
Just needed 2 more France corners for a few more to come in too.

He it's quite normal to have fractions where I am. It's just on skybet I think, unless someone knows an alternative site.
Nope it means you bet 8, you get 13 profit and then your 8 stake back, so total of 21.
I'm not sure Griezmann is likely to say it was a shot for your bet is he? The fact is it clearly wasn't his goal and clearly not a shot. That said, I understand your point but as said, because it was a cross, or deemed to be, it was an OG.
I dont really care about my bet now tbh. So that means this is probably the wrong thread for this.
But still, I think it's silly. If you take one of those cross/shot freekicks and it goes in, it counts as your goal. If it's on target, it should count as his imo.
Made about 350 quid from yesterday's final.
Far far too late though. Tournament where I never really got going despite plenty of goals and penalties which is usually succesful format for me.
Think day before euro 2020 starts I'll put 500 quid in the pot and see how long that lasts me.
Of course I did that for euro 2016 and was pretty much out of pocket by the fourth game as they were all low scoring games.

I had 200 in the pot. Made out with 435. Not bad for a bad gambler.
Where's the betting thread for upcoming season? Can someone tag me in it?
