Waka Waka and the Champions

Spain NT players vowed to do the following if ever they would win the World Cup, which they did win, wonder if they did go by their word?! Or for some of the more obscure ones, maybe not!

1. Iker – he preferred out of superstition not to make a promise.

2. Albiol – learn English.

3. Piqué – go all out celebrating.

4. Marchena – promised to carry out what he promised in the Eurocopa – walk the Camino de Santiago. He also promised to go on a cruise with his family.

5. Puyol – left the envelope empty because he doesn’t like to make promises.

6. Iniesta - walk the Camino de Santiago, but didn’t say when.

7. Villa – he wrote “let the celebration be bigger than the Eurocopa one.”

23. Pepe - grow a goatee until Aug. 31 and compose an updated version of “camarero.”
 As part of the country's celebrations as champions, some fans edited a La Furia Roja version of Waka-Waka...this video is pretty good!
