Interview with Danny Jordaan

An interesting interview with Danny Jordaan, CEO of the local organising committee for the 2010 World Cup in the Guardian yesterday, wherein he says:

An African team must get to the final of the World Cup at least. African teams have never got to a semi-final before. All African teams must at least reach the second round – all six of them, and we should have at least two in the last four

Blimey, that’s ambitious — but hey, wouldn’t that also be great?
