On the pitch,one wonders how the African teams are going to fare.Nigeria,Cameroun,Ivory Coast,Ghana,Algeria and hosts South Africa will be trying to go one better than Senegal in Korea/Japan 2002 who surprisingly got to the quarter-finals.On paperP

This is one crunchy battle that is too close to call.
