Here are the results after nine days of competition

So you were hoping for a day where the majority of bettors for an outcome will not be disappointed, much to the chagrin of those who played underdogs. Well, it won't be today.

From the first match, the draw between Cameroon and Serbia will have thwarted the hopes of many of the participants. The Korea Republic vs Ghana match was also a surprise, but on a smaller scale with Ghana's victory. Fortunately, the rest of the day went as many had expected.

What is certain is that we had some good matches today. Let's see what effect this had on our contest results.
