Talk about upsets!
Must have been a hell of a party in Malawi.
The whole SADC was celebrating!

So you can only win at home in africa?
How can Africa be different from the rest of the world, the fact they lost against a very poor team makes no different if it was away or home.

supa i play the soccer 6 every week man
trust me i know what im talking about
go look at the reverse fixtures of those games, none of those teams who beat those massive fav teams will win away from home this weekend
africa is very different than the rest of world
look at those results and then tell me africa is not different
im not saying teams cannot win away in africa, im saying that 80% of the time african teams will win or draw at home

Its got nothing to do with away from home. We suck! Watching that game i rather laughed to myself cos what Bafana Bafana are doing isnt called football.
Sierra Leon are PATHETIC as well. Both teams passed the ball to their opponents when they werent even under pressure
WTF???
Even when they took a throw in, they just threw the ball in the hopes that their player will get it.
ABSOLUTELY NO STRUCTURE!!!! I dont know how we can support a team like this.
With that said, i will continue to have hope that Bafana will one day produce and play the football that is expected of them.

What you saying makes no sense, you making excuses for them losing against a crap team.
Africa is the same as the rest of the world, you play away or home against a crap team you suppose to win.
World cup/african nations cup/euro these tournaments are all being played away for all the teams other than the host nation, so when a team loses in the tournament, you think they going to say :"Its because we were playing away from home"
All away fixtures for the winning team:
Sierra Leone 0 - 1 Nigeria
Equatorial Guinea 0 - 1 Nigeria
Nigeria 2 - 0 Sudan
Mauritius 0 - 3 Cameroon

Malawi (1) vs Egypt (0) 1/3 in the betting
Botswana (1) vs Ivory Coast (1) 5/10
Gabon (2) vs Ghana (0) 1/3
sierra leon 1 SA 0 7/10
explain to me then how ghana ivory coast and and egypt all lost away from home to very poor opposition?
senegal draw away from home
im not saying south africa dont suck, they do
im just saying playing away from in africa is not easy
nigeria is one team in africa who do well away from home
its pretty simple to be honest, watch south africa play this weekend, i can assure you they wont lose to sierra leone
watch gabone lose badly to ghana and watch egypt and ivory coast murder those teams, yet they could not do it away from home

Ya that right.
If you play a weaker team, it doesnt matter where the macth is played. A win should be almost guarenteed. Only reason or excuse that the match was drawn or lost would be if you fielded a second string team or even a junior team. Then maybe its acceptable.

Only reason i can think of is, that their stars werent playing. Or they fielded a second string team.
Do you think if any european team must play against the majority African teams do you think on average they will lose?

not in Africa kule, maybe europe
playing siera leone in their country is not easy
playing gabone in their country is not easy as ghana found out
dont ask me why african teams struggle away to really poor teams but they do
kule can you see the betting on the those teams that lost? do you think bookies will mark egypt up at 1/3 with 4/1 draw and 14/1 win if they knew they would field a second string team and are away from home? imagine the amount of cash they would lose
bookies would be out of business in a matter of days
bookies betting often indicates alot
im not sure why the bookies dont know that africa is not fun to play away from home

ok kule im not going to argue with you
im going to say bookies are not stupid and would not mark ghana and egypt up at 1/3 if they where fielding a second string team

If Brazil were to play their tenth team against SA. What u think the bookies will say?

not sure brazil dont have a 10th team 
what i do know is bookies wont mark a second string ghana team or egypt team up at 1/3 if they not full strength teams

Point is, that neither Gahana nor Nigeria are even close to European consistancy standards as well. So to measure the away games, cos they lost would be stupid.
Anyway, back to the topic:
Bafana lost to a crappy team, cos they cant play football ''yet''.

Well in the second half they had lots of chances to win the game
I think I have a solution for Bafana Bafana.
I'm sure there are lots of people of Dutch descent here in the country.
Since the Dutch are blikseming everyone on Euro 2008, I think it's time we went to Free State, Northwest, and other provinces to get good quality players
