I walked out of immigrations and there they were: hundreds of elated supporters, people, smiling and shouting, chanting and banging drums: there were reporters, several with cameras, microphones, tape recorders and banners! I began to wonder what was going on! “Mr Zide (with a Z instead of J) welcome, welcome will you deliver the national…
17 Jul As curtains draw on the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, football emerged victorious again…. ‘Die Maanschaft hat wieder gewonnen!’ Again, it shows that you can win games with the best player but you need the BEST TEAM to win tournaments!
