2010 AFRICAN CUP OF NATIONS CHAMPIONS: EGYPT

On Sunday, January 31, Egypt's undefeated team were crowned champions of the 2010 African Cup of Nations, which took place in Angola. This is the 7th time that Egypt returns home with the gold, and for the third straight time. Egypt was the Cup's highest scoring team, with 16 goals overall, and did I mention, they're UNDEFEATED.

Watch this: Zidan's assist to Gedo's game winning goal. By the way, Gedo was the highest scoring player of this Cup and he's from Alexandria, my city!

OF THE SAME EARTH

PUMA and American artist Kehinde Wiley recently collaborated on a series of products and artwork paying tribute to the 2010 African Cup of Nations with the goal of bringing solidarity among the competing teams and countries. The championship match is today between Ghana and Egypt. I will be watching, proudly supporting my country (Egypt).

"...no matter where you're from, we're all of the same Earth."
