Mexico beat France... we almost beat Mexico, does that mean we might have some hope getting into the 2nd round?

Zero to nothing chance :(
It's not just about beating France, we need to destory them to have the slightest of possibillities
 
Lance's positive thoughts will bring us through Ayoba!!!!
 
no man we will beat france ****ing 6:0 :),

i keep thinking that they should go the same route and use some voodoo on france's food before the game just like the bokke back in 1995 ;)

but its a points system, we only need to win, even by 1:0. right?
 
Realistically we don't have a chance. We gotta hope Uruguay destroys Mexico and then we have to beat France convincingly and ideally not concede anything.

If Uruguay's match ends in a draw it's curtains.

Nope.

Both Uruguay and Mexico are on 4 points, SA and France are on 1. GD for Uruguay is +3 and for Mexico it's +2.

Say Uruguay beats Mexico 2-0, Mexico's GD goes down to 0, now SA has to beat France by 3 goals or more because our GD is -2.

The Uruguay match screwed us badly. If we had lost that one just 1-0 our chances would've been a LOT better.
 
It is a point system but when teams finish on the same points goal difference becomes a factor then goals scored goals conceded then yellow cards red cards and finally if all that fails they flip a coin hahah.

Well they never paid mexico enough because we drew!!!!!! only SA could **** that up hahaha.
 
I think they paid Mexico, that's how Bafana won

or it was plain luck mixed with the need to win. now we had a lekker loss due to uru's penetrating skill vs our lack of play and laid backness.

Uruguay just may do us the favour and put 2 or 3 against Mexico.remember they would not want to even think about coming 2nd place because then its Argentina more than likely next :p
BUT the biggest factor by miles is we wont net 3 against France.i see us winning 1 or 2-0 and the country will have some pride but thats about it.

If we manage to get through to the next round i will only be able to describe it as the footballing gods smiling down on us ;)
 
If the entire Mexican team succumb to spontaneous human combustion and the entire Uruguayan team are rendered incapacitated from being bitten by a herd of donkies then we might go through...

Never say never.

Only one donkey should be suffice...
 
I believe that Bafana can beat France on Tuesday. France are ****, and the team has bug problems with infighting. The problem is that Mexico and Uruguay can play to a draw, and then Bafana's reslut doesn't matter. Hopefully fear of playing Argentina in the round of 16 will spur them on to playing for a win.
