It's 12°C in this Parisian night... too cold for the eve of the European summer... What could be best then than watch another World Cup match?
Cameroon vs. Denmark... let the best win!
But what I really want to talk about in this post are the poetic names by which the African National Teams call each other...
Nigerians are known as the Super Eagles....
C ameroon's team, the Untamed Lions...
Côte d'Ivoire's, the Elefants...
Egyptians, the Pharaohs...
Algerians, the Sahara's Foxes...
Senegal's team is also known as the Lions...
And Ghana's players call themselves the Black Stars...
It's so good that Africa, a continent so beaten and yet so strong, can live in its lands the passion of the World Cup. And perform their ritual dances before each match, no matter the team... Africans are all brothers! And it's so good too that during a whole month football lovers will lay their eyes on them...
