south africa's missed header was the best chance


Messico had a easy header chance they missed on a corner. dude blew that one, did not connect with it and sent it 15 ft over the goal.

they had that chip into the 18 where SAs goalie came out and made a nice stop

also had a few nice looking shots and of course that offside call they were so close on.

That or the ball too inflated or something. It's skidding and bouncing over and past everyone just about everytime it hits the ground.

Mexico's possession game is pointless if they can't finish no?


true, but I like their game a lot more than SAs quick counter attack game.

Other than the missed punch on the corner the south african goalkeep has been their only saving grace.

I'm certain the ball has something to do with the erratic behavior as well as the short grass.

Yes, it's a really light ball, and it seems to move funny sometimes. Imagine using that ball on turf.

South Africa would seem to be more right for the counter attack. It may not be pretty but it would get them a goal.

I do not know much about MExico as a nation as you people do but I think South africa is the more likeable team here.

All this game needs is a dubious penalty for SA.

Because Aguirre decided their 5'7 35 year old was a better option.
