Mexico vs South Africa

I will look away from all the noise and lots of tactical analysis made for the opener, there is for me something much more important than those analysis.

Mexico is playing their 8th
World Cup opener !!!

No Team has ever played opening games at the
World Cup like Mexico,
they are repeatedly involved in opening games in the World Cup history. Interesting !

All the experience Mexico has gained in World Cup history, something very interesting comes out,
Mexico has never won a World Cup opening match!!!

Openings are completely different from the group stage fixtures and the knock out stages later on.

I have been in football long enough to know that opening matches are very rare decided by tactics and concepts alone.

Most it’s decided who can handles the emotional pressure of the occasion.

Mexicos players will be very emotional and obviously driven with the energy of the occasion, the atmosphere and the expectation to win at home a World Cup opener is enormous pressure.

These is huge burden and such emotional momentum can obviously be very powerful in the game, but players can also be extremely vulnerable if it doesn’t go their way.

From Bafana’s perspective,
I don’t think the first objective should be to play the game in the opening moments, first is to survive the emotional waves, and if the score remains level, the pressure will not stay with Bafana.

It will be on the shoulders of Mexico.

That’s when game will become much more psychological as tactical concepts.

Bafana don’t need to prove that they are better than Mexico in the first 20 minutes.

If the boys can remain calm enough, to play their offensive transition game after the emotion settles, that could give Mexico problems in their defensive transition.
The impatience will changes their decisions and attacking will be rushed.

That is why Bafana’s biggest challenge is definitely not Mexico’s quality in the beginning.

Bafana Bafana’s opportunity is Mexico’s urgency!

No ha empezado el Mundial y Noruega ya tiene las 3 mejores fotos de equipo.

La primera antes de viajar, disfrazados de vikingos.

La segunda, su foto oficial, con la camiseta de Noruega, todos perfectamente alineados.

La tercera, ahora, todos los jugadores con las camisetas de su primer club.

Qué grandes los vikingos.

"If Arsenal are unpopular with neutrals, it’s because they waste everyone’s time. Not just their opponents’ time, but our time too. Football fans everywhere are suffering Arsenal’s consequences. They are like a company that spews pollution into the environment in their production process, privatising the profits and socialising the costs. To them, dumping toxic sludge into the river is just free waste disposal. It’s the rest of us who get a headache when we drink the tap water" https://t.co/PHpC1FRgv7

@ChampionsLeague From a neutral journalistic perspective, a Declan Rice Ballon d’Or win would be the equivalent of handing the Nobel Prize for Physics to someone whose greatest achievement was correctly assembling IKEA furniture.

REVEALED!
Every Premier League VAR and refereeing error this season

🟥 Arsenal escaped 3 red cards and 3 penalties - actually received 0
✅ Gunners & Chelsea benefit from most ref mistakes
❌ Leeds the ONLY club not to gain from a referee or VAR error
