What is football (soccer) culture like in South Africa?

[sohel2010]

How involved are footballers with the sport?

How do they interact with it - i.e. Watch games at stadium, watch it on TV, hear commentary on radio, read soccernet.com, newspapers etc?

Also how segregated is football? Do people of different races play together?

Do people play football often and if so, where do they play?

I am curious about South Africa's football culture since they are hosting the World Cup in 2010 and I was wondering how excited (or not) South Africans are about the prospect of hosting such an exciting event.

Ole! South Africa! Ole!
