Interesting- identical odds. I would've thought France would be the stronger favorite. But without Perisic, Croatia's odds of pulling an upset are lessened.

Croatia was my upset pick for this round (aging, but tourney savvy and still a ton of fight left). Without Perisic, yeah, gonna be a big ask.

Ok--this is going to show my lack of knowledge, but how can you bet on a draw in the Knockout Phase? Does it pay if the match is tied after the extra periods, and if so, does that mean if you bet on a team to win and they do win via penalty kicks, you don't win the bet?

The odds posted are based on the 90 minutes. For example, for Italy/Austria, a Draw bet would have won as it was 0-0 after regular time.

There are separate odds for Spain to advance, Croatia to advance, etc.

Croatia are going to end up with one goal from a 0.0 xG chance and one goal from a .95 xG chance.

California. Duh.
As soon as the second one went in, you kinda felt this was coming. It's been too crazy a game to have anything different.

Can't believe that there was a time when goal line technology was possible but it was not part of the competition.
