The football made me chuckle last night. What a brilliant goal by Ollie Watkins, the movement, the strike, unbelievable. Something that has been lacking for England in this whole tournament.

To then see Harry Kane on the touchline organising the tactics with minutes to go makes you realise how he has kept his place in the side.

I laughed because I’ve been left scratching my head as to how he’s leading the line still. He’s been terrible right? Then I saw this video on You Tube and it explained everything.

Watkins should really start the final. Will he? Almost certainly not. I don’t watch much football these days but I’d love for someone to tell me when Harry Kane has produced a match winning performance in a really big game.

Anyhow enough of that. I got the winner I needed and the return was £20. Cheers Geoff. So Stick or Twist? Most definitely Twist.

£20 to reinvest with the big sporting event of the day, the semi finals from Wimbledon, for the women. Now I have to admit I know absolutely nothing about Women’s tennis these days having paid little attention to it for the past 5 or 6 years.

I wouldn’t have even been able to tell you who was in the semi finals before I started searching for potential bets. But luckily I know where to look to find the tipsters who do follow the game.

The best bet appears to be Krejcikova +4.5 games. I’m not going into too much depth myself but will link to the articles of tipsters keen on this wager.

They include Kenny Ducey and Andy Schooler. Two well respected tennis tipsters working for the biggest publications.

I also highly recommend the article by David Gertler at Action Network, it was his preview and insight that convinced me this was the bet to take.

Krejcikova has actually won the only 2 previous meetings between these players, although they were both on hard courts. She’s banked 9 sets on the spin to reach this stage of the competition.

She’s had success at Wimbledon before winning 2 doubles titles and her backhand slice could be a key weapon here to ensure the ball stays low and out of hitting zone of her opponent.

So that’s where I’m heading today. Good to luck to everyone betting today, always gamble responsibly.

Bet: Krejcikova +4.5 Games v Rybakina – 2pts @ 1.98
