South American’s Dominate London 2012 Goal Scoring Race, Neymar 11/2

Tipped for world stardom, Brazil’s wonderkid Neymar has been installed as the 11/2 favourite with William Hill to top score at this summer’s Olympic football tournament and his side are 7/4 favourites to win gold.

Spain are 2/1 second favourites and have Atletico Madrid striker, Adrian in their ranks. He is the second favourite at 7/1 to top score this summer. Hulk is 8/1 along with Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani is 9/1. Daniel Sturridge is the highest Team GB player in the betting at 16/1 with Craig Bellamy at 20/1.

“There will be a lot of young talent on show in the men’s football tournament. Neymar, Adrian, Sturridge, Suarez and Cavani are all superb strikers and it could be as tight as the Euros for top scoring supremacy,” said William Hill spokesman Mark Young.
