FIFA’s Freedom Farce
Now I’m not one to be negative; the 2010 FIFA World Cup was phenomenal, and South Africa truly made us proud, but I recently heard someone refer to the next hosting nation as “unlucky”, and the more I think about the stress that lead up to the event, the more I realise that we were in a very unsymbiotic relationship.
FIFA created a big show and dance of 'granting' Africa its very first soccer world cup- Africa is then expected to bow down to the great football Gods in astonishment. And from there on it was a chaotic scramble to meet Mr Blatter’s demands. Where did this leave South African media?
