World Cup Komp semi final thread

Traeth v Howson
Punter v Winrew

Same as before, put your selections up in the relevant match threads. I'll keep running totals in here. The semi-finals of the competition cover the 8 second round games. At the end of this round, the highest-scoring player in each tie will go through to the final. In the event of a tie, the player who finished higher in the table at the end of the group stages will go through.

Good luck all

Must take a fair bit of your time running this. Brilliant work Rc & Odm. Thanks.

Good luck Winrew, may the best man win

I will

thanks for the effort running this comp and the quick updates after the matches rc

PM'ed you my pick for the game tomorrow, Rc. Cheers

r.c. =I've p.m. my selection for the 3 p.m. k.o. , thanks

Me too, they didn't deserve that.
Martinez did a Mourinho in bringing on Fellaini when all looked lost as a last gasp option and as usual he comes up with the goods.

Punter, Traeth, got them both, cheers

hi rc posted my early evening selection to you

Switzerland v Sweden scores:

Howson 5.0
Winrew 2.1
Punter 2.1

Latest overall scores:

Punter 6.75 v Winrew 5.5
Traeth 6.75 v Howson 7.2

Well done to Punter, who's our first finalist - Winrew on both teams to score @ 2.2, even if that comes in it's not going to be enough to catch Punter.

And in the other game, what a fightback from Howson, he lands a 5/1 HT/FT pick to now lead Traeth. If England win tonight, Traeth is through to play Punter in the final, otherwise it's Howson. Good luck both of you.

Cheering England to win will be difficult for me.

Imagine what it's like being English Traeth, it's fcuking murder lol.
Torment after torment.

England v Colombia scores:

Punter 2.3
Winrew 1.2

Final scores:

Punter 9.05 v Winrew 6.7
Traeth 6.75 v Howson 7.2

Traeth desperately unlucky there, Colombia's 93rd minute equaliser denies him a place in the final.

So, Punter v Howson it is in the final. Well done to both, commisserations to Traeth and Winrew
