Watched both games today.
South Africa surprised everyone and tied Mexico in the first game. The Brazilian coach managed to make the most of his weak squad andscored the first goal which was an amazing shot by Siphiwe Tshabalala on a counter attack and was the first goal by an African on the continent. This may not seem like a big deal but it is amazing because of the way it was scored(upper 90) and to over come all the obstacles that this country has gone through over the years to be scored like this truly shows that the country of South Africa and the continent that it comes from is ready to prove itself on the world stage and is a compliment to all they have overcome in the last 18 years of being recognized by the governing body over soccer(FIFA).
