Speaker 1: You know what it's It's quite incredible when you look
Speaker 1: at today and you walk it back sixteen years ago.
Speaker 1: This set of coincidences that happened because in twenty ten,
Speaker 1: eleven eleven June, this very day, sixteen years ago, we
Speaker 1: were preparing for the opening ceremony in FNB Stadium in
Speaker 1: Joburg and we were just on a buzz and a pluck,
Speaker 1: pluck no other as a nation. And also this team
Speaker 1: were scattered in different parts of the country, living very
Speaker 1: different lives. Yeah, and we were playing against Mexico in
Speaker 1: South Africa. Now it's the return match in the Azteca
Speaker 1: Stadium in Mexico City, both at extremely high altitudes. That
Speaker 1: where they're playing tonight is about two two hundred meters
Speaker 1: above sea level and Joburg is like twy one hundred
Speaker 1: I think there about. There are so many similarities. It's
Speaker 1: crazy about this day.
Speaker 3: Sixteen years ago.
Speaker 1: So while we were on a high, I was up
Speaker 1: to my things. Of course you were, That's consistent, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I remember I did so many things, but we
Speaker 1: pulled this one out. The ocove happened, right, So this
Speaker 1: was building up. So Germany were arriving. Germany were two
Speaker 1: days now. This is what happens like behind the scenes
Speaker 1: that people don't know about, right. So Germany's plane is
Speaker 1: landing two days away and they were staying at the
Speaker 1: Vollemore Hotel and Spa in Centurion. So remember every team
Speaker 1: had to have a place to stay and a training facility.
Speaker 1: So this hotel had gone and created a pitch for
Speaker 1: them to train on, a proper grass two speck according
Speaker 1: to FIFA regulation pitch. And then what happens is this
Speaker 1: guy has a bit of fun a party on a
Speaker 1: Friday night. He's got a lack of car, and he decides,
Speaker 1: I'm going to go and do doughnuts on this pitch.
Speaker 1: Oh no, totally unawares that this is the pitch that
Speaker 1: they've just made for Germany.

Speaker 1: the next day some extent donus. They've ruined this whole
Speaker 1: pitch that Germany's taking care of coming to train on
Speaker 1: in two two days. So they got his registration and
Speaker 1: this is what actually happened. So they got his registration number,
Speaker 1: They tracked them down and then they started coming with demands.
Speaker 1: They were like, okay, you're gonna have to pay for this,
