Football
South Africa squad Bafana Bafana, disappointed the nation once again. This come after not qualifying for the Football World Cup 2014 in Brazil. On Saturday 07, a match against Botswana nearly gave us hope... apparently Ethiopia came first to top up the log table, 4-1 score that's how it ended. Hopeless, far to reach the element of freedom. On Wednesday 11, they fail again to produce, International Friendly match against Zimbabwe at Orlando Stadium Soweto, South Africa and 2-1 score. Few supporters came out to support them and did not play a well structured match, they lacked team work and communication. It seemed like they have no interest at all, focus and consistency... all hope is gone.
