How can I consider myself a World Cup 'expert' without making some sort of ridiculous predictions, so before each day I will predict the score for each game the night before. Let's start with Day 1:
Day 1
South Africa - Mexico
South Africa will be boosted by the raucous crowd and the appearance of 91 year-old Nelson Mandela in the crowd. Expect the Bafana Bafana to score two first half goals before Mexico pots a consolation goal making the final minutes of the game a nervy affair.
South Africa - Mexico (2-1)
Uruguay - France
Both teams will not be able to live up to the pageantry of the first game, and I anticipate a dull draw. The French are in tatters with whispers of turmoil affecting the team and ex-captain Thierry Henry, but I still see them holding Diego Forlan to one goal while Nicholas Anelka pops one in for Les Blues.
Uruguay - France (1-1)
