Football

We knew that somehow football started in China. But why did a populous nation which is the creator of football seldom participate in the World Cup? The answer was simple. China was banned for life by FIFA to participate in football after it was found guilty of substituting the entire team at halftime. Yes, because they look alike. So the first squad just gave their jerseys to the next squad; new team, new spirit, but the same jerseys. This was a rumor from nowhere. No wonder Tanzania's first president Mwalimu (teacher) Julius Nyerere once branded Dar es Salaam 'rumourville' city in mid 1960s.
