World Cup update

OK, just one game to play in groups A and B, lets see what we learned.

Group A
We knew that France was bad but not that bad! They played 2 horrible games being incapable of generating offense. They now need to destroy South Africa 4-0 and a close win from either Mexico or Uruguay. I do not see them being able to do it.

The Vuvuzela advantage was not enough for the Bafana Bafana. They came close to win against Mexico, but just got outclassed by Uruguay.

Mexico should come through, but I do not like their chances of going far in the tournament since they have been inconsistent so far

Uruguay will finish first of this group and they have deserved it.

Group B
Argentina. They are legit, it took them a little bit of time to wake up but they are worthy to be considered a favorite to win the tournament. They will take first place in that group.

South Korea. Have the best chance to finish second. They should win against Nigeria. Although they got destroyed by Argentina they dominated Greece and should beat Nigeria.

Greece. They still have a chance but they got to beat Argentina. You never know with that team. They were awful until the red card in the Nigeria game.

Nigeria. I am not surprised, this team is highly dysfunctional. They should lose badly to South Korea.
