South Africa

Typo should have read tough group,Spain/Holland to win David Villa/Robben top scorer?

this is a group i have mulled over time and time again...and i still cant fathom it out...

u have to take into account that although, on paper, south africa are the worst team in the group, they are the host nation...

it would be an embarassment of huge proportions to fifa should they not qualify...and we all remember the dodgy refereeing decisions awarded to south korea 8 years ago...

if this was in any other country, i would have no doubt that south africa would struggle to get a single point, and france would be seeded 1 amongst this lot...though, they of course are not really any great shakes these days...

mexico & uruguay are both capable sides of course, and both are capable of progression here...however, i just get the feeling that somehow, south africa may well qualify here...

i hope im wrong, and that 2 of the better footballing nations do progress here...

good luck

Panther dont disagree with that at all,just think and rating show they are the weakest side, in a good group and as hosts pressure will be on,have started laying not to qualify from group.
Good luck to you,Spain big bet to win outright for me from last year.

i dont fancy spain either stevo...but thats another story..good luck to you
