Mexico played the World Cup hosts in their opening match and
the game ended with one apiece. This result came as a bit of surprise to many
who saw it as an easy win for the Mexicans. In fact it was Siphiwe Tshabalala
from South Africa who gave them an initial lead; it was only a very late
goal by Rafael Marquez that gave Mexico the draw. The Mexican players are sure
to be scratching their heads as to how it all nearly went so wrong. They will
need to pick up the pace if they are to beat France and break the deadlock in
Group A.
France failed to impress in their Group A opener against Uruguay. France
did occasionally demonstrate some skilled play but overall they offered a disappointing
lacklustre performance. Unless they pick up the pace they are not likely to go
far in this competition. There were concerns expressed about the way France qualified
for South Africa and this last performance proved to just add to this. It will
be vital that France do better against Mexico if they hope to stay in the competition
and silence their critics.
Group A is proving to be a difficult one to predict and no
team was able to take the initiative during the opening matches. This all means
that it is still all to play for. This next match between France and Mexico
is sure to provide plenty of exciting footy so make sure you join us here on
