vs 
Uruguay
Uruguay have been drawn into World Cup 2010 Group A, along with France, Mexico and host nation South Africa. Not an easy group, but Uruguay will be glad to return to World Cup action after missing out in 2006,
The obvious standouts is striker Diego Forlan, who may need a haircut but has no trouble finding the back of the net. The Atletico Madrid striker won the Pichichi award fortop scorer in La Liga last season, as well the European Golden Shoe. If Forlan doesn’t get you then Luis Suarez might. The strong but nimble forward has been banging in goals for Ajax (where he’s captain at 23) and has formed a productive international partnership with Forlan. Last but not least is captain and central defender Diego Lugano, who earns his money in the Turkish Superlig with Fenerbahçe.

Uruguay vs France
Fifa World Cup South Africa 2010
Venue: Cape Town Stadium
France
France will be in Group A, along with South Africa, Uruguay and Mexico. All is not rosy, especially with coach Raymond Domenech, but this is still a team with talent galore to choose from and still the nation that only missed out on winning World Cup 2006 on penalty kicks. Or was it headbutts?
Bordeaux’s Yoann Gourcuff is busy filling the Zinedine Zidane shaped hole in attacking midfield, left winger Florent Malouda is murdering right backs in the Premier League with Chelsea, while Bayern Munich’s Franck Ribery is arguably the most talented of all France’s attacking options, and can play right, left or center. Going forward there’s Thierry Henry, Nicolas Anelka, young Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema and more to choose from, which seems almost unfair. Until you remember the madman France has entrusted with the choosing process, and the fact that he usually opts to play with just one striker.
