Many of the expected 450,000 visiting fans will also head for "Jozi" because 21 of the 64 games are in the region and that will also give the city a golden chance to make an impact.
The downside, however, is that many of those visitors might be targeted by those who put crime above the need to make this a trouble-free World Cup.
Those visitors, whether they be from England, the United States, Germany or Brazil, will have to get used to being told to take taxis instead of a short walk, to not go out alone at night and to leave their valuables in their hotels.
Jozi must lose crime image for World Cup
