Today’s friendly seems like a pretty straightforward affair, but what would sporting news be if we didn’t inflate pseudo controversy into “genuine” talking points? (The answer is legitimate journalists, but we’ll ignore that for now).
Hot in today’s news cycle is Davide Somma, who has been called up for the South African side, and who has vowed to “destroy” the US in today’s game. Why for, Davide? Seems the 25 yr-old Leeds player could’ve represented the USA through some quirk of birth, but was consistently overlooked by Bradley and the US coaching staff.
I wanted to play for them so badly and they ignored me. I want to destroy them and it feels good. I am so pumped up for this match.
Somma has only had two practices with Bafana Bafana, and admits he doesn’t know much about the US team he’s facing. Still, he’s ready to show US what we’re missing. Good luck out there, buddy, and keep it clean.
