Anything to do with South Africa, Portugal, rugby, or a World Cup, I'd say.

This is a very good question. I was into my football in 2010 and watched all the matches, but I can't remember who they beat. I'll need to sleep on it.
What I remember most is the Jabulani ball! My team bought an official one and played with it in practice. It was like playing with the old plastic windblower, ridiculous!

not afrikaans, which evolved from dutch and is also one of eleven official languages in south africa.
not fante, a dialect of akan spoken primarily in ghana.
