Micronesia, who already suffered a 30-0 thrashing by Tahiti and 38-0 beating by Fiji at the Pacific Games, have already conceded a total of 114 goals in the competition .
The Federated states of Micronesia have endured a turbulent time at the popular South Pacific tournament. Their massive loss to Vanuatu on Tuesday further proves their inexperience in the game of football. According to mobile betting providers, Vanuatu was looking for a chance to finish in second place as they sought to progress to the knock out stages of the tournament.
16 goals were scored for Vanuatu by Jean Kaltak, however the goalless draw in the final group game between Fiji and Tahiti saw the South Pacific nation finish third place in their group. Despite Vanuatu not qualifying for the knock out stages of the competition, online betting sites reports the country still secured a play-off spot for the Olympic Games in Rio.
Micronesia first ever appearance in the Pacific Games.
In the previous games, where Micronesia suffered a 30-0 beating from Tahiti, 7 hat tricks were scored. Reports from gambling news further mentions that 10 goals were scored by Antonio Tuivuna for Fiji against Micronesia. The 46-0 defeat experienced by Micronesia would not stand as an international record in football because the team is not a registered member of FIFA.
The Pacific Games is a series of sport events held every four years by the countries in the South Pacific region. The appearance of Micronesia in the tournament is the first of its kind for the small nation, however many sport betting sites provided interesting chances for them and other teams at the tournament. Bodog88 Casino is known to offer many cool odds that appeal to the Asian market, which provides a great opportunity for punters looking to capitalise on the Pacific Games.
