Man City's Kompany passionate follower of Mandela

Man City's Kompany passionate follower of Mandela - Times Union: "DURBAN, South Africa (AP) — Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany said he was pleased to be in a country he "followed with passion" as a youngster in Belgium after the Premier League team and new coach Manuel Pellegrini touched down in South Africa on Thursday.

City's touring squad made a low-key arrival in the east coast city of Durban for the annual Nelson Mandela Challenge, a regular football celebration of the former South African president's birthday that will be especially poignant this year with the aging anti-apartheid hero critically ill in a hospital."
