South Africa - Mexico

Match 1 - Group A - 11 June

Host nation South Africa take on Mexico in the first game of the 2010 Football World Cup. Venue for this historic match will be Johannesburg - Soccer City Stadium.

In only their third appearance at a World Cup, South Africa will try to put a great display on. Mexico, who have already appeeard 13 times before, will try their best to take second place in this group. Favourtie France plays later today against Uruguay.

Who do you think will win this game?

Here at the office we seem to think that South Africa will try to show the world that they have been rightly chosen as the organizers of this event.

So our prediction is South Africa 2 - Mexico 1
