We’re all black stars...


It was a very dark period, I couldn’t even write... The whole continent was despairing counting its teams driven one by one out of the greatest tournament of the beautiful game ever organised that it was hosting. Then came a star, in a spark, a black star, from the west, which stroke the heaven on it way, and sprinkled Mzansi’s shores with the hope of keeping the cup home for a while. Where certain favourite names failed, our black star succeeded for our pride. Today, Ghana is our country, Ghana is Africa... Yes, today, we’re all black stars!

When Cameroon went head on head with Netherland on the 24th of June a lot of things appeared. For that game at the Cape Town stadium, an impressive flow of fan followed the fan walk like an orange river; it was difficult to distinguish the very scarce green jerseys though. It was the first time since the beginning of the competition such a people preferred the experience of the fan walk to any other mean towards the stadium. And the stadium filled at around 90% of it capacity.
