It begins. Finally, four years of waiting, and World Cup 2010 is here. Yessssss.

I don't make predictions generally, because I'm terrible at it. But I think Mexico is an absolute lock to go through. They are technically very skilled, have a contingent of young, fast attackers, and outplayed both Italy and England in warm-up friendlies (although they lost to England). They looked "gelled" and ready. I can't see South Africa getting a result against them today.
