Bale and Messi get my April votes

April certainly was a big month and turning point in many peoples season. When it comes to the individual performance of the month, only one night comes to mind. That night being the night Lionel Messi scored FOUR goals to eliminate Arsenal from the champions league. He was clinical, calm, composed, skillful, the difference and quite simply world class and it made people realise that we are in fact blessed to be watching a true footballing genius on display. Unfortunately Barcelona were later to be eliminated from the champions league by Inter Milan but Lionel Messi gets my vote for Best Individual Performance of the Month, for April.

Individual Performance of the month - March - Frank Lampard
Individual Performance of the month - February - Sachin Tendulkar

The award for the player of the month, in my opinion goes to none other than Gareth Bale. He was the main reason in Spurs resurgence towards the end of the season which culminated in them winning a champions league position for next season (provided they win the qualifying matches of course). He manged to score a goal in each of the home wins against fierce rivals Arsenal and Chelsea whilst his performance against Man Utd was top class too. He set up their goal in that match and his running and attacking style was a pleasure on the eye. He was always tipped to be a quality player and its no surprise to see him starting to mature as a player now that he is playing in an attacking position. Well done to Harry Redknapp for giving him the freedom to express himself rather than playing him at left back and if he stays fit, Spurs could well be a team fighting for better things next season.

Player of the Month - March - Lionel Messi
Player of the Month - Febraury - Wayne Rooney

What an experience it was!

What an experience it was! The previous day a family member told me about how they got see the world cup trophy. It made me realise how much I needed to make an effort to enjoy the pleasures of hosting the world cup. I've got tickets to some matches, but I did two things that have made me wish the world cup started tomorrow! Firstly, I bought the Panini world cup sticker book and secondly I went to go see the world cup trophy. I managed to see it live and what a piece of art it is. 6.5 kg of pure gold, it really is an amazing trophy. I must say well done to Fifa and Coca Cola for doing the tour of the trophy and bringing it to us fans. Whilst waiting in the queue we also got to see a fantastic 3D video and the excitement is really building amongst sport lovers here in South Africa.
