Blatter slams Bafana Bafana

Fifa president Sepp Blatter said on Monday he was disappointed with the recent performance of the national team of the 2010 World Cup host country South Africa.

"I am disappointed that during the years since 2004 when this World Cup has been given to South Africa...the national team is not better," Blatter told journalists after a visit to the building site of Cape Town's Green Point Stadium.

He said it was "incredible" that Bafana Bafana had gone from being the African Cup of Nation champions in 1996 to failing to even qualify for the crunch tournament in 2008.

"I cannot understand it. It is the last moment now to move...do something, move it," he said.
