    Fantastic performance from Saudi Arabia. Argentina very underwhelming though. No fight, Messi looked disinterested at times

    @World Cup 2022

    We have both the match scores table and the overall leaderboard now. Still some tweaks needed and I need to add the logic now to send different types of prediction league to different forums but these World cup ones should switch to the General Football forum in the next day or so

    Was surprised mind you that the only two who predicted a Saudi goal both got one of the scorers

    Seems to be the norm with him at World Cups. I mentioned in the post about my Sorare draft that I ended up picking him over Neymar or Mbappe because he seemed to have the best chance of scoring big in the groups but I had my doubts over his previous World Cups where he was poor. Its almost like he freezes under the pressure and this game didn't suggest anything different

    When the keeper flew out of his area and the ball landed to Messi - rather than shoot, with an open goal, he tried to beat 3 players.

    What a bizarre strategy!
