South Africa just broke twitter.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

World class shot.

[reggiemiller rules]

Great finish for South Africa. Also great call by the linesman on the offside call got it right, Vela was behind the goalie making him offside.

Exciting even having to listen online (no espn3 access at work).

[Guest]

Great finish.

I'm torn. I want Mexico to do well to help the Confederation in future Cups... but I hate that team.

[chuckywang]

Blanco in!

I want Mexico to flame out in embarrassing fashion. France too, preferably, from Group A.

[SpongeWorthy]

Apparently the key to beating Mexico is to have your goalie bomb it deep over the top...guaranteed quality chance.

Wouldn't be too surprised if the France-Uruguay game is also a 1-1 draw.

[Mark Priors Calves]

Fair result. I thought dos Santos was the best player on the pitch. South Africa did themselves proud and I think they can still advance out of the group.

[bukie]

Actually, I'm hoping for the FIFA nightmare scenario in group A right now: six 1-1 draws.

This, I don't want Mexico going ahead of the US for a potential seed in 2014. Plus Mexico sucks.

[shnsajax]

I wont be surprised to see France tie all 3 games 0-0.

[brinoch]

USA is better than either of these sides (France or Uruguay).

[bukie]

Terrible play there, and Uruguay is down a man the last 15.
