Watch Mexico vs. South Africa Online

The first match on June 11, 16:00, at Johannesburg on will certainly be an interesting one.  Mexico has experienced a rough past, with three different coaches and an inconsistent line-up over the past couple of years. Coach Javier Aguirre ushers in a new, younger team with some established stars like Giovani dos Santos, and Carlos Vela. Aguirre most notably managed to bring about a return of Cuahtemoc Blanco, who has promise to lead his team to victory in the match against South Africa. South Africa boasts impressive performances in the past. Midfielder Steven Pienaar’s speed and precision will undoubtedly excite the crowd on their home field. His energetic performance is contagious, providing inspiration and motivation that the rest of the team feeds off of. The South Africans are very fast, and in past world cups it is the host team that always advances. Mexico will definitely be challenged by the spirit and fury of South Africa on their home field, and needs to take advantage of the team’s youth. Mexico will need to play their younger and faster players to compete with the aggression and skills of South Africa’s more experienced players.
