Meanwhile, this one that all these white folks are on our jersey issue, I pity us when we start getting thrashed oh.

Na Lionel messi younger brother.

But the black color in the jersey doesn't
have any significance in our country, apart
from the fact that Africa is the "dark continue".

Colors in a national Jersey should nhave
a meaning.
