South Africa - Mexico 1:1
Nice match, Tshabalala's goal was absolutely amazing!
Mexico still was the better team IMO but the RSA guys are very powerful and highly motivated.
Next match on schedule is Uruguay - France.
Your predictions, gentlemen?
I say 1:2 (not that I'd want the French to win).
I think Uruguay may surprise us,at least I hope so.
Fuck the French
I just place a $60 bet on Uruguay. Already made some $105 betting on a draw on Mexico and S Africa.
JS
Attention, the Mexican fanboy has arrived!!!!!
hahahaha nawww, im unbiased
overall, the tie isn't really all that bad
Even tho South Africa on paper is inferior footballskill wise to Mexico, playing the opening game, against the host country, with the entire stadium and country against you, the nerves, the pressure, etc, is nothing to dismiss. A victory would have been so much better but the tie still gives Mexico a lot of hope. If they defeat France in the next game, which is very, very possible, they pretty much just need to seal a tie against uruguay and they move on.
Mexico historically always increases their playing skill when they play against better teams.
France vs uruguay was a big disappointment
here are my predictions for tomorrow's games:
England will win
Argentina will win
Don't really care at all about the Greece game bwahaha
Actually, the U.S., is my second team pick after Mexico, I hope they do well, I really do, but even tho I think it's very possible for them to beat England, I see England taking it. The U.S. should win the following games and move on tho.
Actually, IMO I think Mexico has greater chances of beating France than they do Uruguay. Especially, since Mexico - Uruguay will be the last game and both teams will risk everything to move on.Last world cup, France drew nil all against Swiss and both advanced.
Uruguay is the second best team in the group behind France.
Mexico completely lost their energy on the 70th minute.
Uruguay is onthe same zone as ZAF, so they are prepared for this brisk weather coming in. It won't affect them negatively as it might other countries.
A real benefit for ZAF and Mexico is that France and Uruguay suffered a lot of cards against each other.

Of course these are all predictions and opinions and in the world of football, nothing is certain.
i missed the goal , i thought nigeria's keeper made a couple of decent saves though.
