Messi at plus money to score gives England vs Argentina World Cup semifinal a compelling betting angle

Well, yesterday's game did not go according to plan. Not only did I lose on the total bet that I placed, but my France ticket went up into flames as they decided it probably wasn't worth trying to win. In fairness, Spain looked like the better team in the game, looked more precise, more aggressive, and just smarter out on the pitch.

England comes into this semifinal with some momentum. The team looked a bit shaky in the beginning of the tournament, but I feel like it has found a way to piece things together.
