Motherland's world cup woes.

Hey Graceful,

Hope you are good. I haven't been better, myself.
World cup 2010 progresses beautifully, but I'm afraid Africa's dream for the grand trophy is almost over.
Abysmally disappointing!
Week one of the biggest football tournament being compered in South Africa for the first time has given us a graphic vision of the lack of football tactics among Africans.
Out of the five teams from our beautiful motherland that qualified for the world cup, only one (Ghana) has a chance to get through to the last 16. I tell you, that the saddest news I have had to cope with in a long time.
What is wrong with our nation, really? Are we that bad at everything, or we just don't work hard enough?

Anyhow, South Africa will most likely kiss the championship goodbye this afternoon. It's playing against France, another sinking ship, and the odds aren't in it's favour.

So my fellow Africans, let's work on blinking the tears back and celebrate our shame.
Let's all unite, hold our thick heads the highest and rejoice in the making of bad history..

*Wimbledon is in full swing in Great Britain. Vuvuzela NOT ALLOWED. Ha ha.
Roger Federer dallied with an early exit, but being one great champion, he managed to bend fate. Serena is looking superchic in her little White dress with some pinkish stripe. And she is playing venomous tennis. I haven't seen what her older sister Venus is wearing, but I sincerely hope she has her knickers on this time*
Impressive news: South Africa is leading 1-0 against france in the first half..
