Note to self, don't bet when you get home from being out all night at the bar in Palm Springs for Spadas birhday. Because that time of night, you read 15/1 on Turkey but when you read them in the cold light of day, the TTP oddsmaker has them as 1.5/1 FAVOURITES actually!

Entertaining once TSN pulled a finger out (when trying to fix audio issues how about muting Reuter/Howard/Forrest rather than the game itself?).

Great finger-tip save on the Ronaldo free-kick.

I have changed my mind now and have abandoned this event.

Sorry.

comedic timing is everything...

Umm, no, no, no, and no. Pepe with a great run through, and Meireles finishing off a great team effort. "Mr. MVP" was barely noticed, with only a dead ball shot to show anything. Turkey was missing finish, and what appears to be a political decision to leave Hakan Sukur out of the squad backfired.

Regs: I don't think anybody can fix Vic Rauter. Why does this man still have a job?
