Spain only scarcely gained their win with a final score of 1-0 despite being the seriously favored team to win this game on Saturday in the betting lines. Spain will now be moving on to the semifinals, where it will face Germany. In a final score of 4-0, Germany won their quarterfinals game versus Argentina.
David Villa achieved the winning goal in the 83rd minute, also getting his fifth goal of the World Cup. Now, in a repeat of the Euro 2008 final where Spain routed Germany 1-0, they’ll be facing Germany again. Villa, for his part, is sure that Germany isn’t going to be pleased to see them in the World Cup online betting semifinals.
With Brazil, Argentina and now Paraguay being removed from the contest, the World Cup’s only leftover South American team is now Uruguay. Uruguay beat Ghana in a heartbreaking penalty shootout, eliminating the last of the African squads.
The issue regarding the World Cup betting when it gets to the knockout stage is that there are normally no easy squads left in the contest. But this year it is been a ridiculous tournament and there is surely a pecking order of the squads leftover in the World Cup odds contest. At 1 end of the contest you have World Cup betting afterthoughts like Paraguay (55/1) and on the other end you have the seriously favored squads like Spain (3/1).
And strangely enough these two squads squared off on Saturday in the World Cup betting quarterfinals. Clearly Spain was the huge fave in the World Cup odds going into this game, as it ought to have been.
Paraguay scarcely qualified for the quarterfinal game with a penalty shoot out win versus mid-level team Japan. And it primarily got into the Round of 16 contest after winning a poor Group F which was 1 of the poorest in the World Cup betting event.
Spain alternatively, despite a shocking beginning competition loss to tiny Switzerland in its first competition of the 2010 World Cup betting event, has been highly extraordinary. It went on to win two must win games –one of them versus a very great Chilean side. It played the most difficult adversary of the draw, Portugal, and dispatched its Iberian neighbor and World #3 with little difficulty in the Round of 16.
Now it seems as if it’s got its ticket punched into the World Cup betting semifinal event also. Spain was made a 13/25 fave to defeat its South American adversary by the World Cup sports books. The second closest soccer betting line in the World Cup betting quarterfinal event is a remote 49/50.
Spain hasn’t even played up to its potential yet, and that’s the ridiculous thing about this. Fans have been waiting for the perfect game from this Spanish side, or at least a leading notch performance, and this team hasn’t come close to producing it. Maybe supporters will at last get to see what this team is capable of against the German side in the forthcoming World Cup semifinals betting.
