What is a brace in soccer?

Here's what you need to know about what a brace means in soccer, a term popular within the English game specifically

You might have heard commentators, pundits or sport figures use the term 'brace' to describe something in a soccer game, but what exactly does the term mean?

Goal takes a look.

Why do they use the term 'brace' in soccer?

To score a 'brace' means that you have scored two goals in a game. It precedes a hat-trick, where a single player scores three goals during a game. If Lionel Messi, for example, were to score two goals against Real Madrid, he has scored a brace. It does not matter if the brace was scored in either half of the game - as long as two goals were netted before the full-time whistle and by the same player, any two goals is considered a brace. The term is used commonly in English soccer, particularly by British commentators and is widely popular amongst the Premier League and Championship. The word 'brace' has roots in the Old English language, and a brace can also signify a 'pair' of something that was killed or shot down. It also goes further to the Anglo-French language, where it meant a 'pair of arms'. In hunting speak, one might hunt down a brace of birds or rabbits, which means two of such creatures were killed. This translates to soccer and English football, where players attempt to 'hunt' for goals and goal-scoring opportunities. The term dates back to the 19th century, where the phrase 'scoring a brace of goals' started to gain popularity. Over time, the phrase was then shortened with just the word 'brace' implying the pair of goals scored. A 'brace' and a 'hat-trick' are the most commonly used phrases to describe a player scoring multiple goals. However, less-used and less official terms also exist the more goals a player nets. Four goals scored by a single player in a match can be described as a 'haul', while five goals is unofficially a 'glut'.

What does plus and minus mean in sports betting?

What does "plus" and "minus" mean as a sports betting term?

Odds expressed in terms of money, with $100 being the standard. If the odds are minus (–), then that amount of money must be wagered to win $100. (e.g. –150 means you must bet $150 to win $100.) If the odds are plus (+), that amount of money would be earned on a successful $100 wager. (e.g. +150 means you make $150 on a $100 wager.) Money line is also sometimes referred to as “American Odds.” The standard (and often implied) number is –110, meaning a successful bet of $110 would net $100 profit. This is the “juice” or “vigorish” (aka “vig”) for the house or sportsbook. Assuming equal bets on both sides, the house has a built-in 10 percent cut of the action, regardless of the outcome of a particular sporting event. This juice is a way to discourage gamblers from wagering on a heavy favorite. If the Golden State Warriors are listed at –500 to win the NBA championship, a successful $500 wager would only net $100. On the flip side, the plus-minus juice can also encourage gamblers to wager on a longshot. If the Los Angeles Lakers are a +500 to win the NBA championship, a successful $100 bet would net $500.
