Opening Day
A fine day with an exciting opener and a dry match between
two old champion teams.
Uruguay 0 France 0
100% boredom with Urugay being sort of the winner of day
1 with having survived group favorite France.
South Africa 1 Mexico 1
Bafana's Man of the match Rat Siphiwe Tshabalala
wrote history scoring a fine 1:0 lead against the until then
dominating Mexicans where Snake Giovani dos Santos had impressed.
In the first half Mexico had all the chances, but failed to
covert until Goat Rafael Marquez had equalized. After that
Rat Katlego Mphela had a clear 100% chance to score the 2:1,
had failed poorly.
That was the game prediction ...
South African Bafana Bafana is lead
by Brasilian coach Carlos Alberto Pereira who was born in
a year of the Goat and who is struggeling a lot to get his
hyper active men into shape.
Back in 1994 he had won the World Cup with Brazil and now
his recepy seems to be a mixture of aggressive Rooster, several
elederly Snakes and a few Monkeys who might emerge as his
best key players for the Rainbow Nation.
His midfield brain is Dog Steven Pienaar who plays for the
FC Everton whilst the defense is built around Rat Siboniso
Gaxa.
Overall Bafana Bafana does not seem to be that well configured
for the Tiger Year World Cup, what also applies for team Mexico
led by coach Dog Javier Aguirre and
his key players Rat Cuauthemoc Blanco, Buffalo Guillermo Ochoa.
Mexico may have the better plavers and system whilst Bafana
Bafana may reach a draw thanks to fierce fighting and a driving
audience.
Prediction: Bafana Bafana 1 Mexico 1
France vs. Uruguay will see again
the low flying Gallic Dragon and his top guns Snake Thierry
Henry and Pig Franck Ribery who had suffered a recent loss
against China that points at a miserable shape at this cosmic
moment.
Uruguay is once again driven by coach
Pig Oscar Tabarez and his ruler on the field Goat Diego Forlan
and Tiger Luis Suarez, the hot striker from Atletico Madrid
what seems like a very hard to defeat combination which is
likely to win not only the opener against France but also
Group A.
Prediction: Uruguay 2 France 1
