FIFA 2010 opening game - fantastic feedback from someone who was there

I have just received this feedback and these photos from an old friend of mine who has travelled the world, and was at the opening game at Soccer City on Friday 11 June.



"The stadium is absolutely A M A Z I N G.  The atmosphere was electric and fantastic.

The support for Mexico was huge. We sat right next to a massive group of them together with their drums and full on Red Indian dress. They were brilliant until Bafana scored and then they were DEAD silent. The vuvuzelas did not bother me like I thought they would. I did not even use my earplugs.

When the game was over we waited a while before leaving our seats and in the hallways there were crowds of all sorts of people, some dressed in the most incredible outfits just taking photos with any and everyone. My photos will be going all over the world I am sure. What a festive atmosphere.

It was one of the most memorable times of my life and I had an absolute ball. I am so glad I went. Now all I need is tickets to the closing game".


















Note to the world: South Africa has stepped up to the challenge, we are having great soccer matches in various stadiums and various regions around the country. It is a happy, festive, exciting time. Focus on that, and come to the country to see for yourselves.
