Let me address this big elephant in the room. I am noticing a growing trend of confusion about SA soccer supporters comparing themselves to European soccer supporters regarding the support of a team other than theirs playing in continental competition.

Some even ask, have you ever seen Real Madrid fans supporting Barcelona playing in the Champions League against a team outside Spain or vice-versa? My fellow countrymen, whilst it might seem good to compare yourselves to European…

The day was Thursday, 6 July, 2000, when the world was eagerly waiting for the announcement of the 2006 FIFA World Cup host. It was a neck-to-neck contest between Germany and African continent as a whole which was represented by South Africa. Africa had been waiting to host the world's biggest sporting event for the first time since its inauguration in 1930. Little did Africa know that its destiny was heavily dependent on one man name Charles Dempsey.

One can only try to imagine what…

There is a light at the end of the tunnel and for once, it is not a fast moving train. South Africa's Under 17 team wrote a story in the history books by qualifying for the FIFA Under 17 World Cup to be hosted in October 2015 by Chile. Their 3-1 victory over Cameroon which also booked them a…

Soccer Gags is proud to be the key sponsor at a 16 Team Tournament in Temba which was successfully hosted by FC Temba's very own Kabelo 'KayBee'. Kabelo had this dream of taking football back to where it all started, Lekgwara (The Ground). It is on the hard and yet dusty soil where football began and for the people of Temba it is where most of their stars came from. The tournament was not only about the beautiful game but also providing hope to the youngsters, getting them off the street far…

We have seen him come, and we have seen him go but we never imagined seeing him coming back again. My heart endures great pain as I write of this exceptionally talented individual from Daveyton, South Africa. Every time when I watch the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Bale play, my mind can't stop telling…

Ballon d'Or otherwise known as Golden Ball, is a FIFA football award given annually to the player who is considered to have performed the best in the previous year. It is allegedly awarded based on votes by coaches and captains of international teams, as well as journalists from around the world.

Dribbling Wizards, we have seen them come, we have seen them go. But if there's one wizard who left a mark in the current decade (2002-2012) it has to be one man nicknamed 'Black Jesus' Emmanuel Scara Ngobese. I am tempted to say we are yet to see his peer since his tragic departure.

Recently there is a boy…

The day is 22 February 2012. I am lying in my hospital bed. Looking at my lovely visitors (Family, friends and hospital staff members) all I see in their eyes is the words “be strong, beat it, snap out of it, fight it” It is so sad they have to go through this. But I guess that is human nature, we turn to hang on to the things we love most. We find it hard to accept that the things we have, can never last forever. Talking about the things we love most, what is it that these people love about…
