Waka Waka: This is Sur Africa

During the World Cup, everyone is a football pundit. We all have our own views, takes, critiques and intips.

For me, this World Cup has been quite boring. I hope its just a temporary thing. The games have been picking up, but there is still nothing much to cheer for. The one bright spot for me is that Chile is in the World Cup and its great to see how the people are crazy about soccer, and hopefully next week I'll be able to wake up on time and be part of it. Other than that, the World Cup, like I said, has been quite quay. Even Spain, with their array of very talented players, did not perform. Thank god for Argentina and my current personal favourite, Serbia, for making me have hope, that things will turn around.

The one team that everyone talks about besides Spain, is obviously the soccer nation of the world, Brazil. But we all know that this isn't vintage Brazil, with the matrep Dunga wanting a more organized team. Boring. And whats even more boring, is how they manage to leave him out.



Yes, he might not be at his peak and all that nonsense, but come on la, how can you leave a player of such calibre out. Its players like him who are able to light up the World Cup. And no Suff, I am not referring to Cantona. Which brings me to another matrep, Domenech. You bring players ike Henry and Malouda (for a Chelsea player he isn't that bad), but you start with Govou who can't even finish a simple tap in and play Gignac. I rather call back Vikash Dhorasoo ah. Thats why Anelka was bingit I think. He was so fed up playing with Govou upfront that he was thinking, "Je te flouppe Fli", loosely translated,"I can't play with that matrep". So what do you do, swear at your coach, don't apologize, and off you go. Since he was subbed out before Mexico scored, he can say he didn't lose any game in the World Cup. Good thinking Anelka.

All I hope for now is for Spain to remember how to score, Italy to learn how to defend, and for Lennon to sit on the bench and not play for England again. And for every country to play soccer befitting the World Cup
