How old 11 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: earth pick that happens? 12 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: Hello everyone, and welcome back to Wonder Goal of the 13 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 2: soccer betting podcast from the Action Network, presented to you 14 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 2: by Bett three six five. I'm Michael E. Buff Joining 15 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: me is PJ. Huntingham, and we are going to break 16 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 2: down the quarterfinals for Copa America. We already recorded our 17 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 2: Euro twenty twenty four quarterfinal as well with our friend 18 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 2: Sam Ingram, so be sure to check that one out 19 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 2: if you haven't already. But this one, it's Copa America, 20 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 2: it's a quarterfinals and it's Argentina and Ecuador to get 21 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 2: things started off. On Thursday, July the fourth. Argentina is 22 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: the tournament favorite. Still not surprising that nothing's changed here. 23 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: They've given us no reason to jump off that they 24 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 2: are minus two to ten on the three way line 25 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 2: to beat Ecuador. Ecuador coming back at seven to one 26 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: on the three way line to draw here is plus 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: three ten. 28 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: Bjay. 29 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: As you rightly pointed out, something to remind listeners is 30 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: that these matches there is no extra tie. It goes 31 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: right to a shootout and the two advanced line. I 32 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 2: should also notice Argentina minus five hundred and Ecuador at 33 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: plus three fifty. This one looks pretty simple to me. 34 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 2: I think that just the way Argentina's going the mission 35 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: they're on the way that they are able to get ahead, 36 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 2: shut things down and just keep every match on script, 37 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: on their script. Outside of Saudi Arabia, every match for 38 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: this team just stays on their script. So Michael, yeah, 39 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 2: that's true. It looks like it's it's just going to 40 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: be Argentina. I think you can bet them maybe like 41 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 2: an Argentina under same game parlay here, something along those 42 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 2: lines is how it looks. 43 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I like Argentina, you know, same bet. I've you know, 44 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 1: made an think once twice or three times or two 45 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: or three times throughout this tournament, but Argentina to win 46 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 1: nail is about minus one fifteen and that type of range. 47 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: So these two faced off against each other in World 48 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: Cup qualifying. It was the first match of these twenty 49 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: twenty three World Cup qualifiers, and Argentina beat Ecuador one nothing. 50 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: Expectant goals was two point three two point seven for Ecuador. 51 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: What was glaring in that match is that Ecuador was 52 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: trying to sit as deep as possible. Well, they were 53 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 1: not really trying to press Argentina, they weren't really trying 54 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: to cause problems, and Argentina was able to do just 55 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: kind of whatever they wanted once they got into Ecuador's 56 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: final third, and they ended up creating all those chances 57 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: as well. Ecuador for the match, took three shots, all 58 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: from distance, never really threatened Argentina's goal. They had five 59 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: counter attacking opportunities and weren't able to get a single 60 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: shot in any of those counter attacking opportunities, which tells me, 61 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: and it's something that's remained true throughout this tournament, is 62 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: that Argentina is the best transition to defense here at 63 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: Copa America. They were a little bit shaky against Canada, 64 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: but then against Chile and Peru they conceded a total 65 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: of point two expected goals and very very few shots 66 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: as well, So you know, getting out of the price 67 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: of minus one fifteen, you know, the to I have 68 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: the total projected very very low for this match, you know, 69 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: one point six' nine And ecuador really hasn't even shown much. Offensively, like, 70 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: yes they were very good Against. Jamaica they were good 71 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: up until they got a red card Against, venezuela but 72 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: then in a match that ended up you, know it 73 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: was a specific, situation right because they Knew venezuela was 74 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: winning and they just needed to draw Against mexico to go. 75 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: Through but early on in that, MATCH i, mean The 76 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: venezuela And jamaica match was essentially even and there was 77 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: a chance That jamaica could have gone. Ahead so but 78 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: they only created a point four expected goals in that, 79 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: match and they really weren't that threatening. Offensively SO i 80 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 1: think Entered valencia might be. Back even if he, Is 81 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: i'm not sure that The secuador attack really has anything 82 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: to Threaten, argentina just like what happened in That World cup. 83 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: Qualifiers SO i Like argentina to win nil minus one Fifteen. 84 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: Yo messi was banged. UP i think he's back in. 85 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: TRAINING i think he's still going to play in this. 86 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 1: Match But argentina should control this thing from start to. 87 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: Finish ecuador's probably gonna be playing for that zero zero, 88 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 1: draw just get this thing to. Penalties but, Again argentina 89 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: has been so so good through this, tournament So i'm 90 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: expecting them to control the match again and hopefully they would. 91 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: Know that brings us To, Friday july the. Fifth there's 92 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 2: one game Each Thursday, friday then to on the, Sixth 93 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,239 Speaker 2: venezuela And. Canada this one Has venezuela as the slight 94 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 2: favorite on the three way line plus one fifty Five 95 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: canada plus two hundred to draw here is plus two 96 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 2: ten to. Advance Venezuela canada is basically a coin, flip 97 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: With canada as an even money Underdog venezuela sitting at 98 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 2: minus one twenty five at bat three sixty. Five YOU'RE 99 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 2: i still like This canada side a. LOT i think 100 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 2: that they so much of our focus in The states 101 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: was on The americans and just the disappointment and all, 102 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 2: That WHEREAS i think if we didn't have a horse 103 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 2: in the, race If this was kind of Like euro 104 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: twenty twenty, four where we're just observing as betters think 105 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 2: we me and you would be we did Identify canada 106 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 2: before the tournament as this is a you, know this 107 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 2: is a dark horse that can absolutely outrun its. ODDS 108 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 2: i think we'd be, like we're we're. In like this 109 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: team is still. Going they've done they haven't scored, enough, 110 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 2: sure but like they did exactly what they needed to 111 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 2: do to get through the group that they were. In 112 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 2: they played, IT i think almost. Perfectly, yeah you'd like 113 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 2: to see them Beat chile in that last match or 114 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: score goal or, whatever BUT i think just considering the, 115 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: circumstances they're flying under the radar still a little bit. 116 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 2: Here they've got a manager who won't be afraid to 117 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 2: go for it and kind of throw throw These South 118 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 2: american countries for a. Loop they are the Only North american, 119 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: country the ONLY concacaff team in, WELL i guess, SORRY 120 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 2: i shouldn't say that they are the Only North american 121 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 2: country in the. Tournament panamas also in CONCA caff and 122 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 2: they're they're. In but this this kind of the TEAM 123 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: i still think has some teeth to. IT i like 124 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 2: to advance at plus one, HUNDRED i think you could 125 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 2: start a little bit of a rollover if you didn't 126 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 2: bet the the outright. Odds they're still big, obviously because 127 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: they're gonna have to go Through argentina in the next 128 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 2: round in all, likelihood and then probably one of you, 129 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 2: know or will almost certainly have to go through one Of, 130 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 2: Colombia uruguay Or, brazil and there'll be a big underdog 131 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 2: of that match as. Well they're forty to one outright odds, 132 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 2: obviously still. Playable do you think that they can Give 133 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 2: argentina a rabble if they get, through considering it'd be 134 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 2: their second time, Playing i'm, sure but, yeah, whatever how 135 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: are you want to Bet canada? HERE i think you 136 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 2: can go for. It they've just been really. Impressive, yeah so. 137 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: If you Lights canada before the, tournament you should be 138 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: incredibly happy with this, draw. RIGHT i, Know venezuela won 139 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: their group and they won all three, matches but if 140 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: you dig individually into those, matches like, yes of course 141 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: they down In. Jamaica everybody did in this, tournament and 142 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: everybody has for quite some time Against, ecuador they were 143 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: getting out. Played before the red, Card ecuador created a 144 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: couple of huge chances that they got saved on and 145 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: they obviously you, know ended up scoring when they were 146 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: down in ten men as. Well then they went and Played, 147 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: mexico they beat them one. Nothing mexico created two point 148 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: eight expectacles in that match And venezuela barely even was 149 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: able to create. One and you've seen what This venezuela 150 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: team is. Like they're a very you, know sit in 151 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: the mid high defensive block and then look to play 152 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: in transition if they try to get into a transition 153 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: battle With. Canada and this is the kind of the 154 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: bigger point Is canada is a way more talented team 155 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: Than venezuela. Is Right Like, venezuela if you look at 156 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: transfer market dot, COM i think their total squad value 157 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: is around around forty. Million canada is up at close 158 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: to two hundred. Million Right, like they are a way 159 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: way more talented. Team they have pieces that can give 160 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: them a lot of problems in transition and especially where 161 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: you can Hit venezuela is out. Wide jamaica was doing 162 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: it a couple you, know over and over again and 163 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: they just couldn't create chances off of. It but the 164 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: likes Of Thai Jan buchanan And Alfonso, davies and Having 165 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: Jonathan david as a really good striker and also having 166 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: a really really good central midfield pairing that can stop the. 167 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: Ball it's a really well set Up canadian. Side And 168 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: marsh has proven himself to not get too aggressive given the, 169 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: circumstances right Because, canada you, know they have benefited in 170 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: their matches Against peru And, chile where Against peru they you, 171 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: Know peru got a red card in about this little 172 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: after the sixtieth. Minute chile got a red card in 173 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: the fifteenth, minute so they were playing up a man 174 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: for a majority of those and they played well up a, 175 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: man and given the circumstances they had where they only 176 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: needed to, Draw marsh had them playing a little bit 177 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: more aggressive or excuse, me a little bit more. Conservatively 178 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: so in a match like this which should be very 179 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: back and, FORTH i am going to take the more 180 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: talent and transition, team AND i really don't think they 181 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: should be, underdogs especially given the fact of how Bad 182 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: venezuela was against a SIMILAR concacaf team In. Mexico so 183 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: credit To venezuela for winning all three, matches but the 184 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: one match that they played a similar team To. Canada 185 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: they were not impressive at, all SO i like them 186 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: to advance as well at even, money. 187 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: Both of us On canada for that. One let's move 188 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 2: on To. Saturday what we'll, have LIKE i, said two 189 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 2: matches six Pm eastern. Time first up Is, columbia who 190 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: topped the group with by getting that draw Against. Brazil 191 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 2: they're minus six hundred two advanced Plaust, panama who advanced 192 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 2: at the expense of The United. States panama's plus four 193 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 2: hundred to. Advance they are the biggest underdog to advance 194 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: in This in these, quarterfinals the three way line too 195 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 2: obviously Has columbia as the. Favorite they are minus three 196 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: hundred to. Win inside Ninety panama is ten to. One 197 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 2: the draw is plus three seventy. FIVE i think you 198 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 2: can in a different. Way you can in a different 199 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: way from The Argentina ecuador. MATCH i think you can 200 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 2: look At columbia to win in a route however you 201 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 2: want to do that minus won, half it's. FINE i 202 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 2: Think columbia team totals you can bet as. Well it's 203 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 2: just you. DON'T i just don't trust The columbia assunna 204 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 2: be The panama defense to be able to put up 205 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 2: enough resistance to A columbia team THAT'S i think exceeded expectations. 206 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 2: Here they get a great draw, Obviously SO i Like. 207 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: COLUMBIA i think if you're getting be able to get 208 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 2: you can Play. Colombia Maybe columbia in the Over colombia 209 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: to win by multiple, goals might just one and a, 210 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 2: half et. Cetera it's it's really really hard to See 211 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: panama putting up enough, resistance especially with the way they, 212 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 2: play like their physical and they're going to commit a 213 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 2: ton of fouls and you can get away with that 214 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: against some the teams that they had in their, group 215 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 2: Like bolivia and THE us, obviously BUT i Think columbia 216 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: punishes them HERE bj. DON'T i think this is one way. Traffic. 217 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: YEAH i like over two and a half minus one twenty, 218 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: five WHICH i think is lowly over is hitting all 219 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: Three panama matches in this, tournament and you kind of 220 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: see you know, why, right because once you get into 221 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: a back and forth transitional, battle which is essentially What 222 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: panama wants to, do, right even against The United, states 223 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 1: you know they were obviously playing up a. Man BUT 224 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: i think the bigger the carbon copy match right is 225 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: when they Played uruguay in the first match to the group, 226 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: stage who plays a very similar style to that Of. 227 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: Colombia uruguay scored. Early panama had to be more on 228 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 1: the front. Foot they had to get into a transitional 229 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: battle With uruguay and you just saw the effect of 230 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: a ton of chances at both. Ends colombia is going 231 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: to do the exact same. Thing they are going to 232 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: come At. Panama panama is probably going to see, deep 233 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: sit deep early, on try to absorb that pressure and plan. 234 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: Transition But colombia has proven themselves to be vulnerable in 235 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: those type of transition. Attacks they were really good Against, 236 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: brazil who was trying to build out of the. Back 237 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: they were able to deploy their high press and cause 238 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: them a lot of, problems but especially Against, paraguay Like 239 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: paraguay caused some problems For colombia and transition. There the 240 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: bigger point, though is that the totals with These panama 241 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 1: MATCHES i think have been too low for quite some. 242 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: Time Since september of twenty twenty, One panela matches are 243 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: averaging three point seven expected goals for ninety minutes THROUGHOUT 244 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: concacaff throughout The copeamerica here throughout The nation's, league every 245 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: single match for them has pretty much divolved into, chaos 246 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: and it's usually game state. Dependent SO i like over 247 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: two and a half minus one twenty five and early 248 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: goal is going to throw this into. Chaos you, Know, 249 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: colombia as you saw Against, brazil is not the type 250 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: of team even when it's an even game state or 251 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: in a situation where they just have to draw to get, 252 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: through they're still not just going to sit back and 253 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: let you do whatever you. Want they're still going to 254 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: come at. You they're still going to try to force high, 255 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: turnovers and they're still going to try to beat you in. 256 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: Transition SO i think this is going to be very 257 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 1: up and down type. MATCH i projected about three point 258 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 1: three goals for, it SO i like over two and a. 259 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: Half and if you're somebody like me who has An 260 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: URGUA i ticket right, NOW i think a bet On 261 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: columbia at six to one to win this tournament is 262 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: worth a bet because obviously we like them to get 263 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 1: through in this, round. RIGHT i, mean they Outplayed brazil 264 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: in that final, match a match they did not even 265 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 1: really need to, win and as we'll get to in 266 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 1: This Uruguay brazil. Match If brazil gets ousted here in the, 267 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: quarterfinals THEN i think you'll get a five or six 268 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: to one ticket to go to the final Against, argentina 269 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: who will probably be about minus two. Hundred would be 270 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: my guest to lift the trophy if they face Either 271 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: columbia Or. Uruguay so you can get a decent hedge 272 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: opportunity in the final with one of those two. Teams 273 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: BUT i think betting Against brazil to get to that, 274 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 1: FINAL i think is a root. Here if you already 275 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: have That uruguay, TICKET i think A colombia six OR 276 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: i think there's a six and a half to one 277 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: out THERE i think would be worth of that as. 278 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 2: Well, okay let's close it out With uruguay And. Brazil 279 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 2: and we were. Wrong we both Like brazil to win Against. 280 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: Columbia they did. Not they now come into the match 281 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 2: of the quarter finals by some distance Against, uruguay who 282 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: you feel bad a little bad for. Them they win 283 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 2: the group and Get, brazil it's essentially a pick them. 284 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 2: Here the three way line Has uruguay is a slight 285 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: underdog one seventy Five brazil plus one fifty the drop 286 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 2: plus two thirty and then to Advanced brazil might have 287 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 2: won twenty, five And Marcelo biel, says Uh uruguay sitting 288 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: at even, MONEY i want to Bet. BRAZIL i think 289 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: it's still an opportunity to buy. LOW I i know 290 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 2: you don't want to bet against your, your yougua. 291 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: Future so perhaps they were they were bad Against. Columbia, yeah, 292 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: yeah it was. 293 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 2: Bad they, yeah, yeah it's, weird BUT i there's Still. 294 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: Brazil BUT i do, Agree yeah it. Is they are Still. 295 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: Brazil they are still the more talented. Team they are 296 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: still a very good defensive. Team LIKE i mentioned in 297 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: the last, podcast you, Know colombia did create over one 298 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: expectacle against. Them that was just the third time since 299 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: The september of twenty twenty one of that's. Happened but 300 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: the problem was is That brazil really really struggled playing 301 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: Through columbia's. Pressure in the, End columbia had you, know 302 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: passes per defensive action below, ten which is not something 303 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: you see against a team Like. Brazil brazil couldn't get 304 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: their midfielders in the right positions to play through that. 305 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: Metal it was just kind of funneling the ball out. 306 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: Wide Venetius junior And rodrigo And raphenia and hope for 307 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: some individual. Quality they hit a free kick which was. 308 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: Great venetius is going to be suspended for this, match 309 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: which Hurts. Brazil BUT i think people are overvaluing it Because, 310 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: Michael it's not Like Jeffrey schlupp is coming in to 311 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: play left wing. Right We Haveel Martinelli orsavio, Right they're 312 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: still very very good left. Wingers it's not this enormous 313 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: drop off THAT i think people are overweighting it as. 314 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: Right it's Not Pedro nato being out for, wolves you. 315 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 2: Know SO. 316 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: I agree that it is a chance to buy ale On. 317 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: Brazil Though brazil has had significantly better underlying metrics Than 318 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: erguay for a long time, now and they're a way 319 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: more talented. Team are they? Better are they set up better? Tactically? 320 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: No and that's essentially what you Could that's the argument 321 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: and the case For. Eruguay but sim To england Versus, 322 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: SWITZERLAND i think that the pendulum may have swung a 323 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: little bit too far towards the underdog after what we 324 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: saw the poor performance From. BRAZIL i will not be Betting. 325 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: BRAZIL i do Have brazil projected even, money WHICH i 326 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: thought was pretty fair considering a large sample. Size orguay 327 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 1: did Beat brazil in qualifying. 328 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 2: Before this. 329 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: Tournament, again LIKE i mentioned many, times that was a 330 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: very Different brazil team under a different system that was 331 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: set up to fail against a team Like. Uruguay So i'm. 332 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 1: Passing i'm just gonna sit back and enjoy and watch. 333 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: THIS i Hope urguay. WINS i hope he also wins 334 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: and gets through the next. Round but if you're a 335 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: neutral and you're somebody who just wants to bet on this, match, 336 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: UNFORTUNATELY i think it's a bilot opportunity In. Brazil like you, 337 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: SAID i, Agree, okay. 338 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 2: Best Bets now For Copa america, quarterfinals you can go. 339 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: First, Yeah argentina to win nail minus one to fifteen Against. 340 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: Ecuador these two teams faced off against each other In 341 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: World cup qualifying in late twenty twenty. Three argentina won 342 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: that match one. Nothing they Beat ecuador and expected goals 343 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: two point three to point. Seven but what was interesting 344 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: in that match is that they Limited ecuador to just 345 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: three total, shots And ecuador had five counter attacking opportunities 346 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: and didn't get a single shot off those counter attacking 347 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: opportunities Because argentina is the best transition defense in this. 348 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: Tournament they've proven that against Both peru Against. Chile both 349 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: of those teams have created a combined point two expected 350 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: goals against. Them argentina is the best team in the 351 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: world at controlling, matches keeping it on what they want to. 352 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: Do they're going to be able to play Through ecuador's low, 353 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: block which has been okay throughout this. Tournament But ecuador's 354 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 1: offense really has proven not to be very, effective especially 355 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: in their last match Against. Mexico they only created point 356 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: four expected. Goals SO i really worry about How ecuador's 357 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: actually going to create the chances in this, match AND 358 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: i think they're just going to try to see this 359 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: out until the. Final but given how that match went 360 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: against win Against argentina In World cup, Qualifying i'm not 361 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: sure they're going to be able to Limit argentina to 362 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 1: under one or even under one and a half expected. 363 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: Goals SO i Like argentina to win a little whole 364 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 1: price of minus one. 365 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 2: FIFTEEN i Like canada to advance at even money Against. 366 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 2: Venezuela venezuela was really impressive in the group, stage three 367 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 2: wins from three matches a plus five goal difference six 368 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 2: goals for one goal, against but they did play in 369 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 2: the softest group in this, tournament Alongside, Ecuador mexico And. Jamaica, 370 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 2: Meanwhile canada won one in one in the group stage 371 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 2: and only one goal scored in those three, matches but 372 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 2: it was the goal that got them. Through they get 373 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 2: to win Over peru one, nil then are able to 374 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 2: Hold chile to a nil nil draws exactly what they 375 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 2: need to, do so they get through the group with 376 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 2: a negative one goal, difference and if we're being, honest 377 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 2: like their match Against argentina was really, impressive even in 378 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 2: a two nil, defeat AND i think that we're now 379 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 2: looking at them getting underrated here against the team In 380 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 2: venezuela that none of us really fancied to be in 381 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,400 Speaker 2: the same class as even The ecuadors And Mexico's chiles 382 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 2: of the. World And canada has already proven that they 383 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 2: can rub shoulders with. Them trust the manager in the, 384 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 2: SITUATION i Think canada should be the favorite to get through, 385 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 2: here but they're. NOT i Like canada. HERE i think 386 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 2: that they have a real opportunity to cast some chaos 387 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 2: still in this.
