Today we got an early start as we needed to get to Durban for the South Korea vs. Nigeria match. Our drive from Mkuze to Durban took us through Zulu nation in the KwaZulu-natal province.

We got to Durban around 2pm and checked into our B&B. After that we headed to a local mall to meet up with my friend Pete who I played soccer with growing up. He is in SA for the world cup with two of his buddies from Drexel. We had a great meal at a Greek restaurant while we watched Bafana, Bafana play France. We all wanted SA to win by five goals so they would advance, and they actually had many chances but they came up a little too short. But wow - France is shameful to watch right now, especially with all that talent.
After the game we all headed to the beautiful Durban stadium for the Nigeria vs. Korea match.
The game was quite entertaining and ended in a 2 - 2 draw which allowed Korea to advance in second place out of group B. Less words, more video:
