THE UPS AND downs of this year’s Football World Cup in South Africa have been mirrored across Barbados over the past few weeks.
Those whose teams have progressed can be seen with broad grins, while those whose teams have been eliminated can be seen with heads held low.
The Lucky Horseshoe in Warrens, St Michael, is one of the places where the triumphs and tragedies of the tournament are played out among Barbadians, with the latest part of the saga occurring yesterday when Spain defeated Germany 1-0 to qualify to face the Netherlands for all the glory come Sunday.
