Customer Review: Nice but.....
Great game, smooth play and nice graphics the stadiums and the uniforms are 100% original and even the adidas euro ball and you can qualify for example England to the finals....but my only concern is that Netherlands national team the players are completely unknown! Where's is Van der Sar, Van Nistelrooy...besides this, worth to buy it.
Whilst football is recognised as easily the most popular team sport on the planet, drawing television audiences of billions to its major events, relatively few football fans take the opportunity to put their football expertise to the test by taking part in football betting.
For many football fans, being a supporter is all about backing one club for life, however football betting allows you to add excitement to neutral matches by backing the club you rate as strongest. And if your team isn't on a good run of form, placing a bet on the opposition can offer some consolation when your team loses.
Online betting is one of the best ways to become involved in football betting. Most online sportsbooks offer a huge variety of football bets from the world's top leagues, all year round. What's more, an online account can be set up in a matter of minutes, giving you virtually instant access to football betting markets.
Here are just a few of the most popular football betting options:
Match betting - match betting is the simplest type of football betting. It involves betting on the outcome of a match, with each outcome priced at specific odds. You can bet on a team or a draw. Typically the betting slip will carry the name of one team under 'away' and the other under 'home'.
When doing match betting you can also vote on a handicap bet which basically gives one team a one goal advantage or disadvantage before the game has even started. You then bet on the outcome as per a normal match bet.
Score betting - score betting describes a wide range of betting options. The simplest is predicting the final score of a match, and tends to carry very high odds.
Another popular score betting option involves betting on who will score a goal. These bets carry high odds and come in several varieties including: first goal scorer, last goal scorer and anytime goal scorer.
Special bets - every football game will carry a wide variety of additional betting opportunities, with each online bookmaker offering their own game specials. Literally every aspect of the game attracts odds, ranging from the number of corners in the game, through to which players will be injured. These bets often carry some of the highest odds.
Tournament betting - if you're a big picture punter you'll enjoy tournament betting. Betting opportunities range from picking group and pool winners, picking the tournament winner and predicting the number of goals a team will score in the competition. The limits to your tournament betting opportunities are defined only by the bookmaker's imagination!
We hope that this brief introduction to the basics of football betting has been helpful. With several great football tournaments including the African Cup of Nations, Euro 2008, FA Cup and Champions League being played this year you won't find a lack of opportunities to practice your new football betting skills!
