Re: UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

Counter-attack football? No man, I don't think so at all... Bayern Munich would never play that defensive. It's like against their nature.  Grin  They would also attack with all they have to capture a good advantage in the first leg.
I also think it's almost impossible for Bayern to focus on defending and playing on the counter attack, to be honest, I don't think they even know how to do that. Grin

They'll need to find a way to neutralize Kylian Mbappe. IMO, Bayern's defense is the one where Kylian most often gets one on one opportunities with the goalkeeper. Since they are very offensive and leave empty spaces, their defenders have no chance of catching him in a run.

Re: ⚽ International Football Prediction and Discussion Thread ⚽
in Gambling discussion
Football changed. In recent years it became much more physical and tactical, so some things that were working 10-15 years ago simply doesn't work anymore.

Add on that the fact that Brazilian players move to Europe very early, where modern European coaches are discouraging creativity in favor of tactical discipline, and you get what we have now.


The last Brazilian player I remember with Jogo Bonito style was Neymar, who spent four years at the peak of Brazilian football before being transferred to Barcelona. Nowadays, these Brazilian players spend a year in the spotlight of Brazilian football and are already transferred to some European club, to play in a totally tactical and disciplined way.

A good example of this mentality happened recently when Rayan Cherki, in a game for Man City, started doing some keepy uppies, and you could clearly see Pep Guardiola's disappointed reaction on the sidelines, as if what he had done was disrespectful. This moment says a lot about modern football.

Re: International break games and alongside with friendly games.
in Gambling discussion
When it comes to the end part of every season, this very international break is the most annoying one amongst all we have seen for the whole of this season. The break is like an avenue for good and key players to go off and come on back to the league with heavy injuries, is not really nice to see some of the best players in all clubs coming back with injuries and it will slow the team down, especially if the club that is chasing for the title have numbers of players out due to injury, it will kill the energy they started with. Now several players have been reported or included on the list of injured players and the league still have important games to go and this will definitely make some players to retire soon...what can be done to end this hectic schedule?
A perfect example of this is Raphinha. He suffered a thigh injury during the Brazil vs France game and will be out for about five weeks, which is a huge loss for Barcelona. This came at the worst possible time, as the team is fighting to maintain its lead in La Liga while simultaneously preparing for the Champions League quarter-finals. Sad

The real issue is the calendar itself. There are simply too many matches packed into the season, and players are being pushed to their physical limits. One possible solution would be reducing the number of international breaks or at least reorganizing them so they don’t happen during the most critical phases of the club season. Another option could be limiting minutes for players during friendlies, but that’s harder to control.

Re: International break games and alongside with friendly games.

Well, things didn't go well for the United States national team. In their friendly match against Belgium, they were humiliated. It seemed, at least for both teams, that the players weren't taking the game very seriously. Belgium didn't play around; they took the game very seriously and scored 5 goals, while the United States, even taking the game seriously, only managed to score 2 and lost.

This isn't a simple defeat; it's a major red flag for the United States national team and its coach, Mauricio Pochettino, who was recently appointed as the national team coach. This defeat raises questions about his competence in taking the United States far in the World Cup.

Remember that the United States is hosting the World Cup, and being eliminated in the group stage would be a disgrace. I highly doubt the United States Soccer Federation won't fire Mauricio immediately. Pochettino. I honestly wonder what Mauricio Pochettino was thinking when he accepted this job; the United States doesn't have a good squad on its national soccer team.
It would be even more shameful if they didn't make it past the group stage, where their opponents are Paraguay and Australia. Grin

The USA already faced these teams at the end of last year, and the United States emerged victorious in both matches by the same score of 2-1.

The last team to come from the European playoffs promises to be more competitive, it will be either Turkey or Kosovo, which has been having a great campaign in this competition.

Liverpool are not in form this season, but to be honest still yet they try their best to survive, and don't rush into conclusion saying PSG will win them, remember that this is a game and anything at all can happen.
Liverpool can even end up winning the champions league, and I will not be surprised, the way you guys look down on the club is just insane  Cheesy
At least they are better that Tottenham, in terms of decline in performance
How can we not underestimate a team that signed players in their prime, has a super solid base of renowned players, and is having such a terrible season as Liverpool?

They're not going to become a super team overnight and beat PSG. Everything indicates that these will be two great matches to watch, but PSG will advance to the next stage in the end.

Re: Eleições presidenciais 2026 na Polymarket/Kalshi
in Português (Portuguese)
Situação do brasil hoje está ruim! A cada dia que passa vou perdendo as esperanças, parece que todo político que entra na presidência só pensa em roubar a população, não importa o dinheiro que eles já tenham!

Com certeza. Apesar que agora estão investigando, já no governo anterior, o mandatário trocou o diretor da policia federal para não ter os filhos e amigos investigados. Muita diferença.
Verdade. Esse atual é bem honesto e nem tenta barrar essas investigações

It doesn’t take too long. For my last withdrawals it was very quick, I think 1 or 2 hours and only because I ask for the withdrawal and close the website. When I check later the money is already in my wallet.

Many casinos take more than 1 day so it’s a trouble. Grin

Do you consider 1 or 2 hours as quick?
Nah, I don't think it's quick, man. If the casino releases the withdrawal within the first 10 to 20 minutes, I would say it is quick. While some casinos offer instant withdrawals today, why would I play in a casino that delays withdrawals for 1 to 2 hours? I know finding and playing in a legit casino is the most important thing for the players. Because the established casinos started scamming their players these days. I am talking about casinos like BC game, which is scamming the players. So, if you have trust and faith on a casino that it won't scam you, then slight delays in withdrawal is acceptable.
Yes, I think 1 or 2 hours is quick enough

Some casinos have instant withdrawals but even 1 or 2 hours is ok. If you are gambling why are you worried that your money will not arrive in 5 minutess? You should not be gambling if you need the money this fast to pay the bills or pay for food. If you have money on a casino why it matters waiting 1 hour and not 5 minutes?

24h I can say it's an issue because it's too much

I replied in the raffle topic, but one user inspace angrily commented on my post and I felt bad. I only meant to leave a comment, but some people can’t handle it. Thanks for helping me.
I read the conversation and he only said friendly that your screenshots did not show the exchange amound and you also did not share the bitcoin address. Both are requirements to participate

You need to follow the rules if you want to be part of a raffle or competition. You could have replied to the post with the screenshot showing all the informations like the swap amount and the bitcoin address for the prize.

i dont understand why i have not added to RAFFLE, i dont want to publicly share my wallets and swaps that i did?

is it a must @CCECash
Why do you not want to share an address?

You can create an address just for the raffle so you do not leak any of your wallets or balances. Is this a big deal for you? Huh
