### <center>Here are the results after three days of competition</center><br>

This third day was a bloodbath day for forecasters.

The first surprise was the match Argentina vs Saudi Arabia. While Argentina was the big favorite, against all odds it was Saudi Arabia that won. Congratulations to @hopestylist and @irisworld who successfully took the risk to vote for this team and were the only two to get a badge for this match!

The next surprise was the match Denmark vs Tunisia. While once again the vast majority of participants bet on a victory for Denmark, only around twenty of them bet on a draw... and got their badge. Congratulations!

A third very intense match where both teams failed to stand out was Mexico vs Poland. Again, it is the minority who bet on a draw that wins.

The only match easy to predict and which kept its promises was France vs Australia. An overwhelming victory for France as well as for the happy bettors.

We hope you enjoy this contest and have as much fun as we have. Once again, thank you all for your positive comments and feedback.
