So, for the first game that will be kicked off any minute now, South Africa versus Mexico... got to say this game has a lot of pressure to South African players as this is the first game on the home soil. Play on the home turf has its advantage which one of them is the noise of the African trumpet which is a trademark for nation. The noise made from the special made trumpet has been a controversy since the Confederation Cup. Come back to the game, I personally think that the Mexicans have the edge against the Africans and I dare to say they has an easy task to qualified to the last 16 round.
This is of course the French of course in such disarrays, unlike what they achieved in 1998 edition. In those time, the team is in best form. But such form were tainted in 2002 edition World Cup when they lost the game against Senegal and since their not-so-impressive campaign, come Raymond Domenench. That when the disaster struck the player. On their run on 2006, the French were so lucky when they had Zizou. To me, that what bring them to the final. Euro 2008 was their worst run and certainly I at least, don't understand why the French Football Federation won't sack him. I am sure they are "luckiest" team in the world especially when it came to the France play-off game against Ireland. For me, they will have a toughest game in this group A.
That's that.
