Argentina vs Switzerland, kick-off 2am - Kansas City, USA

Will MISSI take a pen if  one is Given ?

Thought it was The Colombian Coach TBH Last match

Surely the Tina's win easy ?   Cant see how the Swiss can beat them

When is Alvarez going to score a goal, know he hasn’t started most of the matches, he needs to score at least two goals tonight

Switzerland are mediocre, but still BY FAR the strongest team Argentina have played

They don't have Manzambi though, he's a big miss.

UFC on now so I'll miss a lot of this game. I have a small back of Swiss to qualify at 3/1.

Agree Road , ready to Strike

A few quid Swiss outright

Is that PPV?

Watching grown men grapple rather than a football match, something's not right there

TNT1. McGregor is back but I'll be watching the Argie game at the same time. Main event is not for another couple of hours.

looks like   he has had Quick wash and set before the game Road , ALL GOOD

Crikey 1-0

Tommy T , has already started work on the Omega Beta Tina  plan

Murat looking dangerous on the sideline , will hitmen be deployed ?

Game over already, Swiss needed pens to go through

Outright betting suggests England v Argentina would be a 50:50 tie

Definitely need Argentina to win this. Swiss v English would be a monumental borefest.

Thought England would be fairly clear favs

Why? Arg are world champions.

And they have big game pedigree..unlike England.

I'm guessing McGregor and Paddy Pimblett will be PPV?

I would not pay for McGregor, he was phoning it in 5 years ago.

I'm surprised Paddy is underdog as he is always being hyped up, but I only have a casual interest so don't know his opponent.

Murat has brought up the Subject of horses heads , during the 1st quarter Break

There is no more PPV. They will show it on TNT Sports or Paramount in the US. Paddy overrated and his opponent is dangerous.

Argentina have scraped by 2 teams that were 500/1+ outright

England beat two that were dark horse contenders at 40 to 60/1

Nice spin you put on that tobes

There was never any real chance of anyone with those odds getting close.  Its pretty much the first 4 in the betting getting to the semis if the Argies win.

'UFC 329 cost £19.99 in the UK'

There is a much bigger chance of a 40, 50/1 getting close than a 660/1

dreadful tackle

Ok, they've stopped the PPVs in the US but still PPV in the UK, I see.

UFC main events are just too late to be worth the PPV

There's usually a decent highlight vid on YouTube the next morning.

This QF is a stupid 2am time too

I'd have thought that for the quarters onwards they could just have had one game a day at 10 or 11pm

England & Argentina both 4.9 outright even though Arg not won yet.

So it seems Argentina favs v England

Yes, Argie will surely shorten then once this game is done (assuming they win).

They don't want one semifinalist to have only two days off. Ideally it's nice to have one match per day at this stage, but I think it's only annoying for us because of the time zones.

Swiss notte quite outta disse yette,,,,  les Argies not creatingge a lotte of #clear-cutte ones so far this halffe...

Switzerland is the Elise Mertens of football. Can be relied on to make it through the early rounds, but not good enough against the very best.

Where are you from and why do you write in this manner?

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS  !!    gola Boom Boom BOOOOOMMMMMMMM :)

just recharged the ipad....swiss have been all over Tina...shold be 3-1 up...

Deserved with that little spell .

uh oh

but Argentina will get away with it surely

silly sod...why dive...

Absolutely nobody wants to see Switzerland v England.

Dived got what he deserved,why do it with all rhe cameras about

Got to go for that shithousery. Numpty!

You're a little bit....idiosyncratic. Red card Swiss

there will be more Fix it for Argentina talk now, but not much to say about that one.

downne a monne :(  #uppeagainstte itte; gwan Switzerlandde... use it positively andde #galvanize beware of Messi - he'll turnne it ohne last 10 mins, tbs :)

Players thinking they can get away with simulation, with all the cameras around these days is crazy

Seen a lot worse dives go unpunished, even rewarded.

Ebola red card. Surely Argentina can't loser this now.

Why the hydration break so late? Was waiting to sort my outright bets in reaction to the Swiss equalizer and then that happens ffs

Does he get that 2nd yellow if referee didn't mistake identity if he knew he already had a yellow?

You can get away with simulation in the 2000s or non-VAR era. Embolo had a brain fade

could still make a big difference for Argentina if they can win this in 90 and not go ET. You'd think they would feel all the ET:s in the legs at some point. Only 3 days rest before the next game as well.

oh Egypt was regulation. But must have been been mentally draining if nothing else.

justte didde Switzerland to qualify @ ~9/2.  gl me :)

Swiss must tire surley with ET,if not done in 90.

1-1 FT. ET here we f**king go.

Top stop by the keeper.

Why did he wait all that time to make substitutions, Argentina manager is a joker

at least thay will play 120 mins like us....not as hot though...

Very easy first round win for Paddy.

double foul....ref should have seen that...nasty..

gone fo' Switzerland 1-0 in #xtratime, ~37/1

Love a bit of music,the Yanks

Paddy won easy ?

Paddy won easy ?

Switz would have won this already but for the sending off

2-1

Yes, choked him out in the first minute.

That will be that…..

Cracker.

On that performance it will be interesting to se how the price up the semi….

Play acting is a joke….South American rubbish

Paddy was 2.2

Thought he was gonna be another Darren Till; blew his big chance and then get cut a few fights later

England  surely favs v Arg5

Tim vickery seems to think the Argies would be the better team for England to play, not sure why but he knows his onions.

3-1 makes the win sound easier than the game was…..

England and Tina are the same price for the outright…..

Sending off was the difference

Paddy is good but he was schooled in his last fight. McGregor blew his knee out in the first minute of his fight a huge anticlimax for the two main fights.

Would he have been banned from the next game if they had qualified.  ?

Yeah, really disappointed with the Argies, we are poor but I think we'll just overrun them through the middle, the Swiss were doing it to them repeatedly and had them on the rack when the guy got himself sent off.

Argies look really limited and will sit in and rely on the odd counter but if tonight is anything to go by they aren't capable of mounting decent counters when they win the ball they give it back pretty quickly.

A bit like England their best performance was their first one, we won't need good technical ability to beat them just energy, we'll over power their midfield.

Well I'm glad I didn't pay £20 for that Sofa

Ha me too tobes.

After watching the 2 semis today, looks like we'll be watching the final on Tuesday!

Market turned against Argentina quickly. Last I checked, towards the end of the game, Argentina was 4.7 and England 5. Now England 4.5 and Argentina 5.5

Swiss  very unlucky m got back in it ,and looked the More likely to win it
