I would love to see South Africa stuff them on Tuesday. Personally i feel they have been great hosts, they look completely over the moon just to have the world cup in their country, i think the atmosphere at every game has been great. The French on the other hand just look disinterested. They havent shown up. I hope the Africans get to have a party at their expense.

Was not expecting Greece to beat Nigeria. Good game though.

Really enjoyed watching Mexico tonight. Lovely passing team in possession and they work hard off the ball.
France never looked like matching them in either department. Total lack of passion.

Great game tonight. Mexico are quite the team to watch - superb, quick-passing football, and they kept it on the ground too, which is always good to see. I really hope the French go out; they've been absolutely atrocious, clearly despise their manager and insist on playing that dreadful, negative 4-5-1 style. Only Ribery looked like he gave a crap about winning the match.

At last Mexico can finish and for the sake of good football I hope both they and Uruguay go through, you can`t beat latin teams for entertainment.

France a complete joke, players such as Gignac and Govou are a complete joke and shouldn`t have made the squad. Also not bringing on either Henry and Cisse was inexplicable

they just brought on Valbuena a player I`ve hardly even heard off!!! For the sake of football I hope Bafana Bafana beat them.....au revoir France

First goal was offside.

Insane Guest · 06-17-2010, 03:45 PM

Well they didn't mark it, and it's over now so there is nothing you can do about it.
Excellent goal.

Hernandez was level with play when the ball was put through to him - perfectly legitimate goal. I hope the fans don't delude themselves into believing otherwise, as it was only their diabolical defending that cost them.
