Holland 0 Spain 1 AET - Goalless 90 minutes costs Paddy Power

It may not have been a vintage World Cup final but it was definitely one to forget for top bookie Paddy Power.

The Irish firm had pledged to refund a massive range of losing bets if it finished 0-0, and the goalless draw in the 90 minutes triggered the costly refund of €500,000.

Looking ahead to 2014 and despite tonight’s all European World Cup final, five-time champions Brazil have been installed as the bookies favourites to win the next World Cup.

With home advantage in 2014 the Samba Kings are currently 3/1 with Paddy Power to win a record sixth FIFA World Cup Championships ahead of Argentina, at 11/2, and new world champions Spain at 13/2. England are considered 14/1 shots while Ireland are massive 125/1 outsiders.
