But the only role that Carlos and Bafana
can play in achieving that goal is to beat France convincingly,
and even that may not be enough.
They have no control over the clash between
the South Americans Group A, and this is where we can help.
We may have to turn to prayers, muti and sangomas to do
this, but when we consult with the powers, lets at least
be very specific and unanimous in what we ask for.
I have done you all the favour
of scientifically calculating the permutation that will
see Bafana Bafana through to the next round.
I know this is a tall order, but maybe, just maybe.
Uruguay 0 Mexico 3
France 0 Bafana Bafana 3
This will result in the following final
group result.
Mexico 7
Bafana Bafana 4 (4 goals for - 4 against)
Uruguay 4 (3 goals for - 3 against)
France 1
Easy Peasy.
Now make that call!
