World Cup kicks off 10:02 - Jun 12 with 1654 views

the World Cup has finally arrived here in SA. Watched the game on a big screen here in Pretoria, the atmosphere was amazing. As good as any experience I've had watching sports in a big crowd. It was amazing to see so many white Zaffers decked out in yellow when football here is traditionally a very black sport. Seems like the whole country is getting behind the team. Not a bad result against a decent Mexico team who really could have won it. Not sure how they'll fare against France or Uraguay, but they won't be lacking in home support.

Today I'm off to Rustenburg for the England v USA game (my only England game of the tournament) so hoping for a decent performance from the lads. You have a feeling it's going to be a draw - but no reason we can't win the other 2 games and still go through easily. What we want is a display to put the frighteners up the other big teams but can't see it happening.

Come on England and Up The Dale
