The Official World Cup 2010 Thread

First time I have ever seen a side dance on the way down to the pitch. Fair play to South Africa, they're making it special.

Prediction: South Africa 0 Mexico 1.

Very bright start from Mexico here. Should already be a goal up.

Mexico always sees a lot of the ball. They'll fuck up at some point. They'll also dive a lot, feign injuries, try to elbow people, etc.

Yeeeeeeeeeessssss!!!!!

Well shit. Still Mexico's got some major work to do to get through.

Good game Mexico should have won it though. South Africa has good midfield play, the goalie should have really got that one timer from Marquez.

That Juarez was absolutely awful. The amount of times I shouted at the tv after he gave away ANOTHER pass.

As for Blanco - bloody hell, hang up your boots son.

I think France v Uruguay had more of the first game of the World Cup about it than SA v Mexico. As everyone knows the first game of the World Cup is usually a big letdown, and the end to end stuff of SA v Mexico was very entertaining stuff. France v Uruguay was bloody terrible though, all the bad things you've heard about France are true.

Don't you worry boys, after the dull France game, England will liven up the tournament again in a few hours.
