The vuvuzela, a South African horn used by football fans, will certainly whip up a big hue and cry come the 2010 World Cup in June. The Japanese team has already expressed its opposition to the use of the instrument.
Many were those who threw tantrums over the defeaning vuvuzela sound during the Confederations Cup, last June. Nevertheless, the noisy horn is a matter of national pride, and Sepp Blatter, FIFA president has chosen not to have it banned. Die-hard critics have turned to persiflage indicating the that vuvuzela is South Africa’s only chance to make its presence felt, at a time when Bafana Bafana, the national team, is at its lowest level in the history of South African soccer.
