Big mistake putting the football World Cup in South Africa.
A non football nation with very high crime and lawlessness.

How exactly is South Africa NOT a football nation? Because Rugby is the favourite sport of the white minority? They account for less than 10% of the population. For everyone else, the national sport is soccer.

South Africa is not a soccer nation,nor a rugby nation,nor a cricket nation. It is a criminal nation. Crime is the national sport. Let us rather stage the World Cup of crime.
