CR should beat Haiti tonight....

-Slim- · Jun 9, 2007

I see the line at Pinny is -.5 -150

Nothing in soccer is a cakewalk but Haiti is in theory a much lesser team than Costa Rica. Trust me, as a Costa Rican I am constanly reminded of the fact that our national team is not a world power but it is very difficult to compare two teams like Haiti and Costa Rica. Had CR beaten Canada, this line would probably be out hand. Haiti drew with Guadaloupe in their first game which isnt exactly something to be proud of.

I think this is Haitis first appearance in the Gold Cup, their soccer has always been atrocious, in reality all of Haiti has been in trouble (at least since I was born).

Our head coach, Medford isnt exactly the kind to take too much shit from anyone and apparently had very strong words for his team after losing to Canada.

As Im typing this, Guadaloupe just scored a second goal against CAnada (up 2-1), very nice game.

Im surprised the CR line isnt under 200 though.....

CR -.5 @ -150

I disagree with this play, you're underestimating Haiti. They have improved and atrocious is not a word you can use to describe this current team. Haiti did lose a couple notable players with injuries before this tournament but Costa Rica now has similar problems. The Costa Rican side is missing several key players (Hernandez/Ruiz/Solis) and lost Bolanos today after he returned home for his father's funeral.

I took a chance at Haiti to win outright at +625ish at Betfair.

fwitw, game goes in about 5 mins.

Haiti played piss poor their last match. They should be ashamed.

Game on Telemundo here, back and forth with a few chances for both sides. Haiti looks better than a 6/1 dog.

As I say that, Ticos make a beautiful run but header goes off the post.

31 minutes in and scoreless.

GreenDoberman- You know how much I love soccer but these games are unwatchable. I can't believe how bad the quality of play is in this tournament. It's absolutely horrible.

GreenDoberman · Jun 9, 2007

Agree that it is a huge step down from the better leagues and some of these teams are very rag-tag.

Unbelievable the chances C.R. has had in this game and they still can't put one in the back of the net.

DonMelchor · Jun 9, 2007

finally 1-0 CR

GreenDoberman · Jun 9, 2007

Wow, like clockwork the Ticos hear my bitching about them not putting it away.
1-0 C.R. They should be able to add an insurance goal here as well. Haiti is giving up way too many chances.

firemanx · Jun 9, 2007

Haiti has a huge home crowd favorite here.

GreenDoberman · Jun 9, 2007

No way Costa Rica should have had the draw there. They definitely gave up the advantage over an inferior team.
Disappointing night for the Ticos.

How did CR lose to Canada?that loss made me waste an hour of my life
watching Canada tonight and placing minimal wager thinking it is easy
win for Canada and turned to be pathetic joke,first time ever i bet on them
and last for sure..LOL

Guess CR sucks too,the only 2 you can rely on to deliver in that region
seem to be USA and Mexico.
