Soccer - How secure is the World Cup 2010 in Africa

In the last days the question about the security for the Football World Cup 2010 in Africa has gain in importance. Last Friday, November 23rd, before the draw for the World Cup qualification groups, there was been announced a tragic occurrence. The former Austrian Football Star Peter Burgstaller was shot near to the South-African city Durban when he indulged himself to a game of golf. The 43-years-old former keeper from SV Salzburg came to South Africa as a tourist in order to achieve tickets for the drawing gala.  According to police investigations it was a murder with robbery. The suspects possibly thought that he had money and credit cards on himself. So far there are no insights of the suspect, the weapon or the time of crime.

The DFB-Team manager Oliver Bierhoff as well had to gain bad experience at his visit in Durban. The time he went and have breakfast someone abstracted his briefcase from his room including his cell phone and his passport. This however shouldn’t give a reason for concern.  Ernst Middendorp, at this time coach for the German team Arminia Bielefeld said: “Stealing of personal items can happen in every country.” Middendorp was coach for the traditional club Kaizer Chiefs from Johannesburg between 2005 and 2007. He also explained: “You have to know where you can go. There are places you should better not go.” He requests clarification for all players and spectators to avoid any risks. “This is an aspect we have to accomplish.” Oliver Bierhoff agrees: “The fans and also we as a team have to adapt that the following World Cup will be very different from the one in Germany 2006.”

The crime rate in South Africa is very high. Averagely there occur 50 murders each day. In 2006 there were registered in total 19.202 murders and about the same amount on attempted murder. The amount of robberies was 20062007 around 126.558. The startling consequence is that only about 30% of criminal acts will actually be judged. South Africa’s police assured that all arrangements have been set for the security for the World Cup 2010. These arrangements do only apply for a certain area. According to the police Peter Burgstaller kept out of this secure area. 

FIFA-President Blatter was asked if he thinks that it is supportable that such a high-cost event was assigned to a country with so many social problems. His comment was: “I am really sorry for what happened but you cannot relate this happening to the organizers of the World Cup. That is not correct. Football can solve problems and South Africa knew what the country will get involved with.” Middendorp hopes that the Football will bring the white and black population in this country together.

At the opening speech of President Thabo Mbeki he said: “I am very confident that the world of football will celebrate in and with South Africa. We will show our visitors the beauty of this continent.” DFB- secretary General Wolfgang Niersbach has supporting words: „At the World Cup 1978 in Argentina and 1986 in Mexico there has been a lot of skepticism and in the end it was Mexico who was one of the greatest hosts." German national coach Joachim Löw is positive that it was a good idea to award the World Cup to South Africa. "Africa deserved it as a continent to be the equalizer of a Word Cup. I am confident that they will do everything to make this event save for everybody“.

What is going to happen to all the stadiums in South Africa after the world cup?

I know they are going to be their physically but some of those stadiums were not sold out for World Cup.But you have to think they are going to be losing money on stadium up keep.

I do not know what attendance is like for PSL matches but I do not see Kaizer Chiefs selling out soccer city when they play Orlando Pirates

Same deal with the Beijing Bird's Nest and the Water Cube.

Durban wants to host the Olympics in 2020, but I think Cape Town would fit better.
