In 2006, a team of United States scientists led by Eli Ben-Naim of the Los Alamos National Laboratory decided to study sport. Something out of the ordinary, isn't it? They analysed the results of over 300,000 games of different sports such as soccer, hockey, basketball and American football since 1888. The outcome disclosed that soccer was the most likely to produce an upset - that is when the least expected team (the underdog) becomes a victor.
