South Africa - 2010 FIFA World Cup: 32 Teams, 1 Dream

There is special pride with hosting the FIFA World Cup, and no host nation has ever been knocked out in the first round. "Bafana Bafana" are hoping players like Steven Pienaar can help them continue that winning tradition.

I was there for the Cup. Thank you South Africa for making me feel so welcome in your country.

Despite not moving on to Round of 16, South Africa did amazing during the world cup. They showed the world how much pride one country can have. They beat 2006 Runner-Up France. Maybe they'll make it out of group stage in 2014. Thank you South Africa.

I am from mexico and i believe south africa gave it all they had well done. Gave us a hard match that shocked the world at the start of the cup. Great players great team great country and a great heart..... look forward to brazil

@beefintaco yeah South Africa had a tough group and Uruguay caused their elimination

[poyabigby]

south africa got 4 points in if not the most then definantly the second hardest group

despite getting raped by uruguay, they tied mexico 1-1 and they hit the post on the 92nd minute

then they kicked frances ass who still had players like ribery and malouda

and remember the 2009 confed cup? yea they shut out brazil the entire game they just got scored on by a free kick

They had a good run :D

@whothebitchnowsucka Thats exactly what they said of us, there were people wanting to know if they should carry hunting gear with them out of the airport cause they thought a lion or something might attack them, they wanted to know if there were cellphone coverage, one even wanted to know if the water is drinkable and ended up saying it tastes better than in america, i mean, give them a chance, we proved the world wrong, maybe they will to !

@WayoftheSaiyan Pleasure haha !!! hope you love it as much as we do !!

HOT CHICKS!? Soccer is part of Russian heritage. Russia had he best goalkeeper who has ever lived show some fucking respect! Dchebag!

[whothebitchnowsucka]

FUCK QATAR, honestly, we can literally go from one stadium to the next walking.... South Africa was great..... I cant fucking believe they pick QATAR over any 1st or 2nd world country, they had US, Spain-Portugal, and Holland they seriously picked QATAR, its like picking the skinny ugly one from a a group of hot chicks, at least its Russian in 2018... god I love russian chicks... but from QATAR... do they even have women there SHITT
