Not me, I have tickets to R16 and I don't want to see South Africa get smoked bt the Netherlands/Morocco. Canada will put up a better fight.

Beating Bosnia and Senegal/Belgium isn’t some far fetched dream.

It’s bullshite that an American World Cup is catering to a European TV audience

Losing to Bosnia will be imo a disappointment, losing to Belgium is not out of the question at all

Sure, but not making it to the quarterfinals in a World Cup on home soil when you won your group would be below expectations and a disappointment.

I don’t expect us to out-talent Belgium. We can out play them on a good day. But that’s another days conversation we need to get by Bosnia first

I’d be shocked if we lose to Bosnia.
We out talent them at all positions, with possible exception of keeper.

I expect a lower scoring game today, but I expect Canada to win.

Thoughts? RSA have w chance?

Yes.
South Africa has a chance.
Canada is not great.

It's a Friday afternoon in the summer, don't let it raise your BP too much lol.

It does seem odd with it being the only match of the day though...not sure what logic is behind that

Well it’s a lousy match either way.

Canada isn’t great, but they aren’t bad and they do have some offense.

RSA appears to have a problem scoring, but they play good defense.

A little offense > A little less offense?

1-0 Canada until late where they score an extra when RSA opens it up..

2-0 Canada F

It’s a tough pick, both countries governments hate white people.
