2010 FIFA World Cup: South Africa, France crash out of World Cup

2010 FIFA World Cup: South Africa beat France 2-1 for only their 2nd FIFA World Cup victory, but both teams ultimately emerged losers in Bloemfontein. Carlos Alberto Parreira's team became the 1st host nation to fail to qualify for the tournament's 2nd round, while a miserable campaign from the French came to a predictable conclusion as they also bowed out of South Africa 2010.

The African side's story was ultimately one of disappointment as they exited their own tournament on goal difference with Mexico taking the 2nd qualifying place in Group A behind Uruguay. For France there was further ignominy as a 2nd defeat in 3 games provided a fitting epitaph to the sense of disharmony which had infected Raymond Domenech's squad virtually since the opening game.

The beleaguered coach, who now leaves his post, made 6 changes to the team that had gone down to Mexico in their previous game – with captain Patrice Evra one of those dropped. Though, initially France promised to lift the gloom for their followers with some attacking thrusts.

Villa went past 3 defenders in the 17th minute at Ellis Park and Honduras goalkeeper Noel Valladares got a touch on the rising shot but couldn't keep it out. Then some 5 minutes after the restart of the match after the break, David Villa scored his 40th goal with a shot from the edge of the area which was deflected off a defender and went over Valladares.

2010 FIFA World Cup: African challengers flop at World Cup

2010 FIFA World Cup: JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - A record six-prong African challenge at the first World Cup hosted by the continent has produced just 1 win from 12 matches and no guarantee of any country making the 2nd round.

Officials from African Football Confederation president Issa Hayatou down also former stars like Abedi Pele and George Weah expected at least 1 of the sextet to make the semi-finals.

That seems a distant dream as even powerful contenders Ghana as well as Ivory Coast face elimination while 1990 quarter-finalists Cameroon suffered the humiliation of being the 1st country eliminated from the month-long tournament.

In a few friendly matches throughout the qualifying campaign, a number of commanding performances from England, gave some hope to fans and there was a feeling that yes they may have a good world cup campaign this time round. But, what transpired in the first two games was hardly what anyone had hoped for, very similar old headless chicken performance from the England team.
