The official mascot of the 2010 World Cup was unveiled yesterday in Johannesburg — a green-haired leopard named Zakumi — Fifa announced at a television gala broadcast nationwide.

.

Zakumi — the ZA stands for South Africa while kumi means 10 in assorted African languages — has been exclusively designed in the host country which will stage the continent’s first ever World Cup in 21 month’s time.

Its a huge task to stage the worlds biggest football stage and South Africa have ot their work cut out for them. Hopefully they do pull it through and make it the best tournament yet. Cant wait already! :)
