For the opening match of the world cup, Host Nation will be taking on Mexican side at the Johannesburg, South Africa for the GROUP A match of the World Cup 2010. Both teams would want to get off to a winnin start and give them self a chance in the later part of the Tournament to qualify for the next Round. While South Africa are the host ans they would be looking to a make a full use of the home advantage and will be preparing to get the young Mexican side under pressure.

On the other hand Mexico are a team which can play attractive football and very sharp at the counter attacks. So predicting a winner in this game is anybodys guesss. Although I have to say that home side have a advantage which might prove sgnificant at the end of the match.

South Africa 1 – 1 Mexico
South Africa Goal Scorers: S. Tshabalala 55′
Mexico Goal Scorers: R. Marquez 79′
