Didn't they say they deserve more international respect over here? Oh wait...I forgot, they are using their B team this time, so it doesn't count.
Yup, we all remember the complaints about the South African team being a B team. At the time I said no worries as its good to see soem young guns, future stars, come through. I got repped for that by some stupid sods. But I am right (so far!) .
Seems like SA are well suited to beat Mexico. Absorb pressure and strike back on counter attacks. Sounds familiar.
Fookin' ell - they are even worse than Canada woz yesterday. They look like they think the Gold Cup is not worth making much effort for. Maybe they only want to exert themselves in the second half. They better get their arses in gear or they're going down in this one. Compared with Canada and Mexico so far, USA look like Brazil.
Even first tier players like Borghetti are completely sucking. Still, I don't think we (the USA) look like Brazil, despite how poorly other teams look so far. Remember we were tied with freaking CUBA until the last 10 minutes, and they had been playing with ten men for most of the second half. I'd say we looked about as pathetic as any other team so far until the last few minutes. Here's hoping Sanneh and the rest of the "All Suckitude" team from last night turn it around, or we ain't coming close to winning even this sham of a tournament.
Thats what i'm sayin when I looked at the starting line-up yesterday iI wanted to throw up and then smash someting.
Hope we get to play SA - they are an entertaining team. Those guys have such tremendous acceleration. Picking off Mexi passes all over the field.
Hmm... a young team that actually plays balls-out. Nice to see. WHOA! Beautiful MExico golazo as I write this! The last 10 minutes should be good!
Mexico starting to show their class. Is it too little too late? South Africa looks like they're about to break. This leads me to believe MExico just took this match lightly. If they played like the last few minutes the entire match it would be a bloodbath.
MExico winning every challenge, but making it tough on themselves by turning it on so late. Into injury time and SA is barely holding on.
MExico playing like they know they pissed this one away. Indecision and a bit panicky. Still they're showing their superiority. OOOOH! Shot just over the bar by MExico. FINAL! 2-1 RSA. MExico probably just needs a win in their next match. I'd be stunned if they didn't get it.
So Bafana Bafana's B/C team played away to Mexico and beat them. They conceded possession and used their superior speed and strength to beat them on the counter.
