Stars Aligned for Africa at World Cup


It has not failed to escape SA Logue’s notice that, in the world of sport, French-speakers are sitting pretty at the moment. Consider that in the past two days a French woman has won Wimbledon; a man who can converse with her as naturally as any compatriot - and whose mother is South African, incidentally - followed up her feat on center court; and, in the Tour de France, Sylvain Calzati, a Frenchman, won today’s gruelling stage.

That’s three out of four for the French speakers. But the biggest challenge is still to come: tonight’s World Cup match, in which an African side dominated by les gens qui parlent Francais take on a formidable Italy for the title of World Champions.

Allez les bleus vieux! Pour Afrique!

I’ll be cheering SA on! It would be wonderful to see y’all land the cup this time. Your team is totally awesome and the best out of them all in my opinion.
