I am surprised none of the usual suspects have complained about this:

Probably because no-one has any issue with someone being in a position because of merit, and not just because they tick some diversity box.

South Africa still stands a chance of going through to the round of 32, best of the eight 3rd place losers in each group qualifies for the round of 32. We just love scraping through things.

We have never scraped through

How many of this SA soccer squad has overseas exposure, or actually plays in good leagues?

 

[Neptuner]

We have never scraped through

Yes, we try and scrape through but fail at that too.

If we play like this against South Korea, we will be finishing bottom of the table

Slow game, slow thread tonight.

Just an inability to threaten. Its a midfield team. Hail mary shots are all this team is capable of.

 

[dabbler]

Where did the team of zombies come from?

We are absolutely terrible at set pieces. Actually, make that football in general. Also, commentator just nailed it: the drinks breaks make it feel like a preseason friendly, and that's exactly how South Africa are playing. Not like a team on the verge of going out of the tournament.

 

[Jer1cho]

I am confident Sa won't win the world cup but neither will England there downfall will bring me some joy.

England are on another planet compared to us whether they win or not. You might eat your words though. They are contenders for sure.

 

[Mike7]

oh boy

 

[Jer1cho]

Oh wow. Lets see if he pens it.

 

[Neptuner]

OMW fvck this one up ...

 

[theratman]

Unlucky penalty to concede. Glad we put it away though. Also, quality penalty!

 

[Whright]

Laduuummmmaaaaa

 

[Whright]

Laduuummmmaaaaa

 

[Jer1cho]

Will take it. Every WC we play is one win one loss one draw.
