Why bother? You already know they will lose miserably. They have no business being there, and would never have qualified if fifa hadn’t turned the whole thing into a farce by expanding it to a gazillion teams.SA games obviously and 6pm and 9pm games if and when no rugby or cricket on... 12am-6am I got better things to do...
That will most likely change once we get to the knock out phase...

What makes this an achievement is that we advanced from a pool where every team we played were ranked above us. To be in the top 32 of teams in a World Cup is nothing to scoff at.Oh please. It’s still a participation trophy competition at this point.
Everyone making a fuss about Bafana making history by going to the second round etc etc etc. Yet no one mentioning that it’s a round of 32 - which is actually the same as the total amount of teams that qualified in previous editions in total, before the knockouts started. Nor anyone mentioning that Bafana only qualified this time around because they expanded it to a ridiculous 46 or 48 team competition.
The whole thing is absurd. I might start paying attention when we go to round of 16 or top 8.
