Two draws means a lot of egg on a lot of faces. Top punters by a distance are grecian & Pothas who call both draws and the SA/Mex game spot on, securing themselves a daily bonus apiece. Cozza, chalky & Samuel also call the SA/Mex 1-1 exactly to bag daily braces and shares of bronze.

Nah, just arbitrarily left you out in protest at Mark Cueto's citing after the first test.

Oh, and no editing of tips at all, please, chaps. I'll let Burgey slide this once, but it becomes an absolute pig to manage if people do. Sorry to be so anal, but it is a pain.

Ta.

Brumbers its not that I don't trust my own lad, but he is quite adept with computers and forums - did he really tip the NZ Slovakia game as 1-1 before it kicked off?

Indeed so, yes. Three points for fertang fils there.

Day Five Update

Tipsters divided between those who tipped a draw in one of the first two games and those who didn't, as everyone got the Brazil outcome, but no-one dared to predict such a slender margin of victory. Matteh the only punter to nail all three of today's results tho.

Daily bonus to Mithchell then. His five points for Tuesday lifts him from 11th to 4th.

Pothas holds onto top spot despite a minus return, but a two for SKD closes the gap to a solitary point.

Overall

1) Pothas 10.02

Day Six Update

Another day; another update. Most of CW call the Chile win, with the excpetions being ripper, 99*, fatt, chalky & Sam Vimes. Grecian, dav and Marcuss all predicted the 1-0 scoreline exactly for 3s & there are 2s for SS, Straw Man, bi, flibberty, PC & me for the one goal outcome too. No-one tipped anything other than a Spain win, but quite a few correctly backed Uruguay to beat the hosts, noteably PC, Straw Man & Clapo who all got 3-0 bang on.

Daily bonuses then to PC & Straw Man. The latter moves into the medals behind Pothas and SKD.

Fatt's shocker of a day sees him slip equal 7th to 16th and at the foot flibberty registers zero for Wednesday which actually means he moves a point closer to the pack, with 99* registering -1 for today.

Overall

1) Pothas 11.02
