Update

Apologies for my quietness over the past week or so. Exam pressures have taken their toll over the last few days. I’d first like to start off with the Confederations Cup. The tournament has been pretty spectacular so far. All the teams have been banging in the goals and making for a feast of football. Bafana Bafana are on the brink of qualifying for the semis, but need a good performance against Spain to ensure qualification. Good luck to the boys in their encounter this evening. Then the Lions tour. The match at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium was an amazing contest, and it was a great experience to be there, soaking in the atmosphere. The stadium is world class and we were sitting in the upper tier – the best seats in the house in my opinion. Unfortunately, we took the camera to the game but left the battery charging at home so were unable to take any pics, hence the lack of a picture post from the match. Today of course is the first test between South Africa and the Lions. Let’s hope we can avenge the series defeat from 1997. Good luck to the Springboks!!
