Hi , all Saffers and others !
Although I can recognise Beckham from Eriksson , I am not a huge soccer/football fan ( prefer tennis anytime , F1 , long-distance running etc ) ;
thus , I ashamedly admit that have failed to follow South Africa's progress through qualifications , having pretty-much assumed that our team "must" get through to finals anyway...
After yesterdays draw , it seems that I was wrong , again?
Would anyone care to inform me : just what went wrong and when and who against?
Baaie Dankie in advance !
from R. in 3 C-cold Brussels , Belgium today
P.S. All that , whilst tiny Croatia has 2 teams in the finals : their own , and the other one , called Australia , with 8 players of Croatian origin...
