This is terrible. 23 days of the Afcon tournament and I didn't write a post on it. Well the truth is, I lost all interest when Bafana was eliminated. Prior to that I was too occupied for the blog. My apologies.
The nation had hope, hope that last night would be a Bafana final. How amazing would that have been? But, we are still proud of you BAFANA!
Last nights match and closing ceremony was spectacular none the less. Nigeria are deserving winners of the cup.
South Africa did an amazing job hosting the tournament. We hope for more sporting events to be held in Zuid-Afrika and better end results for all our natonal sporting teams(we know you can do it!).
