We do not know our own continent yet we continue to benefit from it
The post event analysis of the now behind us 2010 FIFA World Cup begins. For the most part there is a lot of patting on the back within South African media. Like in this Mail & Guardian report in which FIFA president Sepp Blatter gives the South Africa-hosted event a generous 9 out of 10.
