South African football...eyes on the ball

Since my last post, a lot has happened and changed on the football landscape. Katlego Mphela has kept scoring while Teko Modise has lept disappointing. Golden Arrows have fulfilled their potential by crushing Ajax Cape Town 6-0, to lift the MTN8 title. Congratulation to the Golden Arrows team and their coach Manqoba Mngqithi. SuperSport has continued to dominate the League leader board, as Jomo Cosmos helplessly drown to the bottom.

On the SAFA front, The Iron Duke has been conquered by Danny Jordan's team in the race to be Chairman of SAFA. Kirsten Nematandani is the new President. We wish him every success to transform this sleeping, corrupted gaint of an organsiation. The U20 football team, Amjita made history by advancing to the second round of the U20 FIFA World Cup in Egypt. This squad of players could possibily be South Africa's "Goldern Generation". Watch this Space.

An finally, Carlos Alberto Parreira has taken over the reins of Bafana coach from Santana. He has called up his 29 local players for a training camp in Durban. There has been much debate on the selections as usual, but I think he got it right. Every success to them. We are watching....
