South Africa v Mexico
The host nation has never failed to progress from the group stage, and many are saying that this is the first time. They wouldn't be here, if they weren't hosting. However, if you look in to their squad, it could be competitive versus Mexico and France. They need to be disiplined defensively, for Mexico has many quick players with good feet. They also need to feed off of the home crowd. Mexico need to take care of the ball when they get it, because South Afrcia like to possess. My prediction: South Africa 2.1 Mexico
France v Uruguay
France will be good as always with Ribery and Henry scoring goals. Not too much is known about Uruguay other than their attacking threat, Diego Forlan. France will have the majority of possession so they need to finish chances. Urugauy, not being favorites, need to go all out and really test France's backline. This game is hard to predict, but I think final score: France 1.0 Uruguay
