Kiwis Almost Shorter than Socceroos!

Argentina Backed into $4.50 Fav!
Kiwis Almost Shorter than Socceroos!

As punters on Centrebet continue piling into Argentina ($5.50 into $4.50) to win a third World Cup, the giant-killing Kiwis are surely just a kick away from being shorter than the more-heralded Socceroos to win football’s greatest prize!

Centrebet media chief Neil Evans said Argentina had taken over from the previously heavily-backed Spain as Cup favourite, with around 75 per cent of the last $50,000.00 bet on Diego Maradona’s team! “The Argies are clearly the ones now after the early Group hiccups of both Spain and England,” Evans said. “They could end up being a very big pay-out - in the last couple of days we have taken bets of $7,500.00 at $5.00, $5,000.00 at $5.00 and $3,000.00 at $4.75!”

Meanwhile, the mighty All Whites of NZ have firmed from a despised $751.00 to join the Socceroos on $501.00 to win the World Cup after their stunning 1-1 draw with world champion Italy overnight! But the Kiwis, clinging to a hope of qualifying from Group F into the round of 16, have eased from $6.75 out to $7.00 to beat red-hot Paraguay ($1.50 into $1.45)!

Evans said an Auckland client had spent around $200.00 in various small bets on NZ from several months back at prices of $2001.00 and $1501.00 to win around $400,000.00! The biggest bet on Australia is just under $1500.00 to win around $100,000.00!

The injury and suspension-hit Socceroos are on the slide again, easing from $3.25 out to $3.60 in the must-win game against Serbia who have shortened from $2.10 into $1.87 on Centrebet!

More than 50,000 bets across all World Cup markets have already been taken at Centrebet!
