The Battlefield 3 Nations Cup is underway, and the international tournament has seen a surprising outcome, as South Africa\u2019s opponents, Israel, have withdrawn themselves from the tournament.<\/p>\n

The move comes as a surprise, as Israel managed to defeat Spain in an important victory for the team. The withdrawal of Israel means that the field is left wide open and a lot of pressure is placed on South Africa going forward.<\/p>\n

South Africa\u2019s next matches are against Bulgaria and Germany, and the SA team needs to excel in those encounters in order to get ahead in the competition.<\/p>\n

The match against Bulgaria will take place on Sunday, 3 March 2013, at 20:00, and it will be streamed live via http:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/suumpmolk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Good luck to the SA team heading into the next part of the tournament.<\/p>\n
