Who's going to win the World Cup?
This summer all eyes will be on South Africa, host of the 2010 World Cup. But what impact will the event have on the country? Will South Africa emerge victorious thanks to increased investment and a boost in national pride? Or will the tournament exacerbate social divisions in one of the world's most unequal countries?
