What The Hell Was That? In the last 10 minutes of the live broadcast of the Zimbabwe/South Africa game, something happened and viewers, watching the game live on ZBC, were tortured by a sickening transmission of the game from an angle, captured by a camera positioned hehind Tapiwa Kapini, which made it difficult to follow the game.
It became impossible to tell whether the Warriors had ventured into their opponents' half or vice-versa. When the game switched to the left side, it became almost impossible to see what was happening. The initial feeling was that the central camera, which gave a centralised transmission of the events, had failed.
Whatever it was, it was as bad as it gets and you can only feel sorry for the viewers who had to go through it all, in those final 10 minutes. It was exactly the opposite of what SuperSport had delivered when they covered the Dynamos/Motor Action game the previous week. And, just in case you doubted our personnel, four of the guys who were involved in the camera work of the SuperSport production, are Zimbabweans who learnt their trade at ZBC.
Some people have criticised Lovemore Banda for his commentary, during the match, but I have to say that I found him to be refreshing, went with the flow of the game and was generally well informed of the subject he was analysing.
I have always felt that Lovemore Banda is as fine, a football television commentator, as they come but then, he lives in a country where we find it difficult to appreciate the brilliance of our guys, be it in football commentary or music. Give me Lovemore Banda anytime, and I will listen to him.
Joke Of The Week Safa have filed a complaint with Fifa, challenging the result of friendly international between Bafana Bafana and the Warriors, at Rufaro this week. Safa officials told The Herald there was something morally wrong about foreign players, who earn their living in South Africa, ganging up to beat the Rainbow Nation in international competitions.
