World Cup Group Stage 11/6/2010

Hi there. After a one month hiatus from posting I'm back with action from the opening day of the World Cup.

South Africa 1-1 Mexico
This opening match was bound to be a tight game. It was only because of a Rafeal Marquez(Mexico captain) goal that Mexico even forced a draw. The South Africans had home advantage and the Mexicans had the better players. So overall, it was bound for a draw anyway.

France 0-0 Uruguay
I predicted a draw for this match, but I though that there would be some goals. I think that France have been rather shaky lately, and I think that their shakiness gave Uruguay the chance to force a draw. The results mean that all four teams must bag as many points as they can in the last two matches of the group stage.

Predictions for 2 Group B matches and 1 Group A match are now coming.

South Korea 1-0 Greece
Argentina 2-1 Nigeria
England 2-0 U.S.A.

Exciting times. How will I do in my predictions?
