French worried about rivals' draw theory

Sunday, 20 June 2010


JOHANNESBURG, June 19 (AFP): France are worried that Group A rivals Mexico and Uruguay may conspire to achieve the draw that would send both through to the World Cup last 16 at Les Bleus' expense.
Having lost to the Mexicans after drawing with the Uruguayans, France will be eliminated even if they beat hapless South Africa and their rivals play for the draw.
"The worry will be Mexico and Uruguay will draw," reported French sports daily L'Equipe.
