Liverlips said:Another affirmative action call when they sent off the Uruguay player with 10 minutes to go. The blacks still couldn't get it done though they had the usual affirmative action help in each game. Look for Mexico and Uruguay to advance in Group A.

<div>late in the first half of the opening match with the host team, Mexico has a goal disallowed, apparently for being offsides. however, replays clearly show that a South African defender was standing on the post. which means it is completely impossible for the attacking player to be offsides.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>in all honesty, it wasn't even a questionable goal. it was clearly good, yet it was dis-allowed.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>'twas a completely horrible call by the referee.</div>

The results of the first round, are decided by FIFA with few exceptions in advance.No home team has ever failed to make out of the first round. Of course, there is also the issue of the absolute certainty of mass violence if SA doesn't make it out. In the last WC, the "referee" made certain Ghana advanced to the second round (at the expense of the US). So much for alleged black athletic superiority. If the referee didn't "assist" Ghana , no African team would have made the second round.
