The controversy against World Cup balls has been creating quite a fuss for sometime now. The
Adidas Jabulani, which means ‘to celebrate' in Zulu, is the 11th edition of adidas's FIFA World
Cup balls. The 11 colours that are present on the Jabulani pay tribute to both football and the
country in which Africa's first-ever FIFA World Cup will be held.
Engen Santos and Ajax Cape Town will inaugurate the world class Cape Town Stadium in Green Point
today (Saturday, January 23, 2009). Kickoff is at 4pm.
Like the inaugural match of the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban in December, this is a test run
and only 20 000 tickets were sold.
Cape Town Derby Thriller
It is only fitting that the city of Cape Town chose a classic Cape derby to launch this
beautiful 68,000-seat stadium.
A la par de la presentación de la penúltima lista de convocados de los "Bafana Bafana"
, Carlos Alberto Parreira declaró que es una pena que pocas selecciones
quieran medirse ante su combinado nacional.
"Digo la verdad, hemos trabajado muy duro en Alemania para obtener que sólo un equipo de
Primera División juegue con nosotros.
Anche Carlos Alberto Parreira ha preso le ultime decisioni. Veniamo a
conoscenza infatti, in queste ore, delle convocazioni ufficiali per quanto concerne il
Sudafrica e i 23 che disputeranno, da padroni di casa, il
Mondiale in programma a partire dall'11 giugno prossimo.
Coach Carlos Alberto Parreira has announced his 23-man squad for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. South
Africa will play Mexico at Soccer City in Johannesburg on 11 June.
After the training camps and fitness regimes and international friendlies, the coach has cut the
Bafana Bafana squad to the regulation 23-man squad.
"I have a gut feeling"
Feverish activity on the last day to name the final 23.
Carlos Alberto Parreira names his SA squad and its highest scorer is not in it. Benni McCarthy
joined training looking distinctly chubby, like Ronaldo, four years ago. Apparently his slim fast
regime was not fast enough.

Big Benni should have laid off the cakes
"He is overweight, with high body fat percentage and a lower physical state than the rest of the
team."
That was the expert opinion of South Africa fitness coach Francisco Gonzalez, when asked about
striker Benni McCarthy a couple of weeks ago.
