Adidas: Unite Mzansi Unite!


From Football Shirt Culture:
Unite Mzansi Unite (UMU) is a campaign created by adidas to celebrate the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The project aims to inspire all South Africans to unite in celebration behind the 2010 FIFA World Cup

For this campaign, adidas has created a giant yellow jersey a replica of the official Bafana-Bafana jersey. It is truly giant measuring 60m x 48m. The jersey has just started its amazing 7 month journey through the entire South Africa. It is a platform for all South Africans to unite and show their support by signing their name on the jersey. A custom made truck is transporting this giant yellow jersey through all 9 provinces of the country. This campaign wants to unify South Africa by giving as many South Africans possible the opportunity to make their mark, show their support and celebrate the 2010 FIFA World Cup as one. nike puma umbro

Its time for South Africa to come together, to show our support and passion.
Its about showing the world who we are.
The passion of our people.
The warmth of our culture.
The spirit of our nation.

Brasil vs South Africa Highlight

Yeah, I left the "s" of off highlights for a reason. This is all she wrote:

Brasil vs. South Africa Semi-Final


We are less than half an hour away from the kickoff of semi-final number 2 between the giants of Brasil and the host country South Africa. The most notable news is that Juan is out with an injury to his left leg and is replaced by Luisao in central defense. Maicon remains the starter at right back leaving Danny Alves on the bench. That is crazy depth right there. Those are potentially two of the best right backs in the world. The U.S. needs a couple of military bases down in Brasil to feed our national team. The whole military kid in Germany thing has only been so-so...but kids born and raised in Brasil to American servicemen sounds like a plan.

The Soccernet preview is here.
