Golden Boot Contenders Clobber Betfair: Kane brace v Ghana will cost us £200K

Golden Boot gods firing at the World Cup...and costing Betfair!

The big stars have arrived and have done it again, hitting the headlines and the back of the net multiple times so far this World Cup, and punters are cashing in.

Betfair are set to payout more than £200,000 if Harry Kane scores two or more against Ghana this evening. 

The Messi, Mbappe and Haaland all to score two or more goals in matchday two treble was 80/1, and Betfair customers are now waiting on Harry Kane to replicate what he did in the opening game against Croatia and score 2+ goals this evening which would see them land an impressive 436/1 4-fold accumulator. 

The England talisman has already bagged two in the Three Lions' opener, and two or more Kane goals has landed 20 TIMES this season in all competitions. 

Can he make it 21 against Ghana later tonight? There's a 28% chance according to the odds. 

Bettors win as stars light up World Cup

More than a dozen bettors won over £1,000 on the treble yesterday, with several more now hoping Kane bags a brace to land the four-fold, with one punter will be set to land £4,356 from a £10 stake. In total, Betfair will payout over £200,000 if he scores two or more.

Betfair Spokesperson, Sam Rosbottom, said: "It's safe to say the stars have arrived at this World Cup, putting on a show and scoring plenty of goals, because of that punters are looking to give us a bashing to the tune of more than £200,000. 

"The striking prowess of Messi, Mbappe and Haaland in the last 24 hours landed bettors an 80/1 treble, and it could be a World Cup to remember for them if Harry Kane can follow suit to land the 436/1 four-timer. 

"We are braced for a big payout if England's prolific striker puts on another mercurial performance tonight. Punters have already taken us to the cleaners after the treble, but it could get worse. 

"We will be watching tonight's game patriotically from behind the settee! This World Cup, everyone's got an opinion! Good luck to all those waiting on a Kane double this evening, and congratulations to those who backed their opinion and landed the treble."
