Official South Africa v Mexico Thread

[Simster]

Bafana Bafana to take an early lead. Mexico to level matters just before the hour mark and the South Africans hold out, surviving a shocking and blatent penalty that isn't given to the Mexicans.

1-1


Hope Bafana Bafana win it though, as you have to love seeing the hosts doing well.

Highly entertaining 2-2 draw with some comedy attempts at pronounciation of some of the SA team names (Mr Gaxa being the least unlikely to be attempted correctly - the x is a click)

Is that a Xhosa name? My (White) South African mate can do the click thing but I suspect Clive Tyldesley won't

Bet the Mexicans are unnerved by all the singing from the South African team.

Don't we need Mexican and South African pictures?

Oh yes - at half time, no?

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Sod off Blatter, you corrupt old bastard.

Watch him suck up to the locals to boost his own reputation. Crook.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Oh yes - at half time, no?

Ah yes. I forgot the format!

Edit: Oh dear, what have I started?

Concentrate BoF - concentrate.

Bet Blatter is gutted Mandela wasn't there. That's a top photo opportunity lost.

Is Blatter pissed?

Blatter will think himself a more important world figure than Mandela surely.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Am I the only one disappointed that Mexico don't have Tijuana Taxi as their national anthem?

 

[Turkey]

South Africa 1 - 3 Mexico

Very true. Madiba is probably sat at home devastated he didn't get to meet Blatter
