South Africa: Nelson Mandela's Land: Welcome to The Country

Message from Nelson Mandela { "I believe that South Africa is the most beautiful place on earth. Admittedly, I am biased, but when you combine the natural beauty of South Africa with the friendliness and cultural diversity of our people, and the fact that the region is a haven for Africa's most splendid wildlife, then I think even the most scrupulous critic would agree that we have been blessed with a truly wonderful land. I would like to extend a personal invitation to you to come and see for yourself the splendour of South Africa. I know that my people will be delighted to welcome you and I think you will be enchanted by their warmth and hospitality. I am equally sure that you will enjoy our culture, our cuisine and the warmth of our people." } Nelson Mandela, President of South Africa, 1994-1999

Unfortunately, on the eve of the world cup, tragedy hit the Mandelas. His great-granddaughter was killed by a drunk driver. Mr. Mandela could not attend the opening ceremony!

Argentina Takes the Lead Over Nigeria: Arg. 1 vs. Nigeria 0; Argentina Won

Coach Diego Maradona won his first game against Nigeria. Argentina 1, Nigeria 0

So far, a great game is being played. The two teams are trying to outmaneuver each other. From a header, the Argentines are leading the Nigerians in the first half. So far, the Nigerian team is doing a good job containing the fire power of the Argentines. Coach Maradona is very excited about the game thus far.
