Nelson Mandela Square

Just doing some exploring today. These are a few scenes from Nelson Mandela Square.

US vs England Press

I find the writing in the local news here pretty colorful. Here's some clips from the US v England articles this morning.

"The Italian must have been rude to his charges because England re-emerged in a filthy mood. They pinned the Americans to the wall, in the way that a hoodie-clad yob would do to a spelling-bee champion"

"Rooney bullocked onto a loose ball..."

"Centerbacks Oguchi Onyewu and Jay Demerit are a pair of hard mothers..."

World Cup Signs: Bring on Uruguay!

The South African press is gearing up for their next match already. Took this photo on a walk this morning, small newspaper displays line all of the roads.

US 1 England 1

Not the prettiest of goals but in my opinion, a deserved one. Great atmosphere at the stadium tonight and a point against England is a solid start.
