South Africa came PERILOUSLY close to making it 2-1 though, if only the close shot at goal in the 89th minute didn't hit the side post!
But that's how it ended. It was a more rivetting second half than the first. South Africa started strongly and dominated the first 25-odd minutes, but then Mexico came back with a number of attempts at goal, till the 79th minute when they equalised. The last 10 minutes was supercharged, and like I said the 89th minute effort could have made it 2-1, if the post didn't intervene.
A great game to tee off the WC. Up next, THE mouthwatering prospect of this group - FRANCE versus URUGUAY. That starts in 2 and half hours.
