Group A wide open after South Africa and Uruguay both finished in a draw against Mexico and France, respectively, in the group stage their opening match last Friday. Both tend to be regarded as 2 below in terms of talent in the group but all that out the window after a row draw. South Africa will try to avoid becoming the first hosts not to progress from group stage, while Uruguay looks to duplicate the miracle they won the World Cup run in 1930 and 1950. Expect the final pleasure as the two armies saw to give them all of this on Wednesday.
Pertandiangan football history between the two groups of South Africa and Uruguay
* South Africa:
Although they're lucky to have it, South Africa should be happy to have escaped with their opening round match against Mexico with a point. They came out a little shaky early recognize the opportunity after opportunity to El Tri and not because some lucky breaks and solid enough from the goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune, it could easily be 3-0 in favor of Mexico. However, the point has been claimed and they will be ready to face another team, a talented Spanish-speaking in Uruguay. Bafana Bafana, after much criticism from supporters and the same media, look to take more than a broad approach in action Wednesday when they failed to consistently push the ball forward on the wing, especially with their fullbacks. With that being said, they also would seek more than an inspired performance from Everton's year, Steven Pineaar, who failed to do much in central midfield behind lone striker in their 4-5-1 formation.
* Uruguay:
They played brilliant defense, limiting the French striker Anelka and Ribery and also does a good job putting pressure on themselves, especially Diego Forlan. South Africa may want to dedicate most of their time to decide how they want to contain Atletico Madrid's star forward, or else he could make them pay to come on Wednesday. In terms of defense, I was a little surprised to see their defensive tactics rather think though. At times, there were 7 players in their own box contains only one attacker France. Maybe against weak teams in South Africa, they will try to open it and claim these 3 important points.

Prediction of South Africa vs Uruguay
South Africa really surprised me with the results they claimed last Friday. Although they are not really impressive in all areas, they might have some hosts that are similar to the magic of South Korea in 2002. With that being said, I still think Uruguay is a dangerous team and that they could surprise some people if they could do together, especially if Forlan as he continued to press the attack. Prediction is South Africa 1-1 Uruguay
