    Should have been 2-1 Mexico win.

    First half was boring, second half they picked it up and played lot better. France - Uruguay will be much more fun to watch IMO.

    My prediction:

    France 3 - 1 Uruguay

    Mexico should of had more than 2 goals, they don't deserve to win if you can't put the ball in the back of the net when you have so many chances.

    Good game even though I wish South Africa could of won. That would of been exciting to see the underdog win. How about MShabalala's goal?! That was fuckin' insane how well place that was and how powerful the shot actually was. No goal keeper in the world could of stopped that shot with the placement and power of it.

    The one the refs said it was offside was an actual goal by Mexico, there was nothing wrong there. Refs doing bad job even in football. lol

    No it was offsides. I'm a referee and the rule is that you have to have 2 defenders between you and the goal. The Goalie is just a given defender, but since he came out it was the right call.

    Really? I didn't know that, I thought one man defending was enough to not make it offside. Is that rule only for when corners are being played?

    No, the Mexico player headed the cross forward on that play.

    So what if it was just the goalkeeper back defending the net? Would it still be offside?
