After many problems, many of which had little if anything to do with football; the French team took the field to play South Africa. All in a match which would mean very little apart from pride for either team; as neither would go on to the round of 16.
The game's first goal would be scored 19 minutes in to the game by South Africa through a Khumalo header. It being Khumalo, who leaped over a French defender to get to a cross which he managed to put past French goalkeeper. Loris. Khumalo in fact jumping in a way which in all truth the referee should have ruled a foul and not have allowed the goal to stand yet this was not done which gave South Africa a one goal lead.
A further blow would come to France's already slim chances of wining the game and going on to the next round when Gourcuff, was shown the red card for a collision which was just two players going for a 50/50 ball. Naturally, Gourcuff having to raise his arms in order to reach the ball with his head, ended up accidentally hitting Sibaya; who was also aggressively going for the same cross but ended up getting the worse of the collision. This leading to Gourcuff's expulsion.
South Africa would get a second goal 37 minutes in to the game thanks to Mphela to bring them closer to what could be their qualification in to the next round, naturally providing that the match between Mexico and Uruguay did not end in a draw. It being after Mphela's goal that South Africa was up by 2-0 and it would be but a minute later that again the ball would end up in the back of the French net. This time thanks South Africa's Parker yet the goal would be disallowed for offside.
The first half would end 2-0 in South Africa's favor and with Mexico at that moment trailing Uruguay by 1 to 0, there seemed to be a chance for the home team to go on to the next round providing that they either scored another goal or that Uruguay got another yet this was not to be. As France would get their first goal of the competition thanks to Maluda, who netted the ball in to an empty South African goal.
As for the game, it would end with the score of 2-1 in South Africa's favor which at least allows them to leave the world cup with the satisfaction that they provided their fans with a victory over a country which back in 98 was world champion and four years ago reached the final. This perhaps being little consolation to South Africa, who also becomes the first host nation not to go past the first round in a world cup. France for its part will leave the world cup not only without a win but also with only one goal to their credit.
