South Africa and South Africans have been exceptional in delivering a superb World Cup.
Once it ends however they need to continue such exceptionalism in some areas of life, primarily in their work habits, increasing productivity (even though World Cup month may have seen a drop in productivity), taking responsibility for things and be willing to be held accountable for the things they do and don't do. In the area of social relations, social cohesion and developing social capital, however, they may need to break old pre-World Cup habits and be a little less exceptional than has been their pretension, and be a little more common and empathetic to their fellow citizens.
