She is one of the most recognised faces in South African football and Joy Chauke is delighted to be at the FIFA World Cup to raise this country’s flag.
Chauke is invited by FIFA as one of the many supporters watching the international spectacle, the World Cup, live in Qatar.
The Royal AM’s number one supporter, Mama Joy, has shared her snaps on social media while sitting in the stands enjoying the beautiful game of football.
Looking at her tweet, Chauke, thanked the Supreme Committee for working with the world’s football governing body, FIFA, for such a glorious opportunity.
Known for dumping her first love, Orlando Pirates, for the club owned by reality television and businesswoman Shauwn Mkhize, Chauke is growing in stature both in Africa and globally.
She is also recognised for attending CAF-organised football events in Africa and as Banyana Banyana’s number one and loyal supporter.
“Thank you, God, Mama Joy Going to Qatar for the whole Tournament am going to represent all African (Continent) Supporters of football thank you Supreme Committee working with FIFA for the 1st time in the history of football to arrange Fans from various countries,” wrote Mama Joy.
“You won’t believe family I attended the opening of the FIFA Fan festival at Al Bidda Park.
“They showed me on the screen with My SA scarf All the fans screamed from there Every fan wanted a pic it was pic after a pic Mama Joy is famous in Qatar. I enjoyed.”
Apart from Mama Joy who represented South Africa at the global football showpiece, match officials Victor Gomes and Zakhele Siwela are also part of the tournament.
The two award-winning officials were tasked with handling the match between the reigning world champions, France and Australia on Tuesday.
Gomes and Siwela have since been praised for their display in the match that saw the French claiming a 4-1 win over the Socceroos.

“Yesterday Victor Gomes was solid and professional…for the first time I enjoyed his job. He was flying our flag very high as a country. He didn’t act BIG trying to make the game all about him. May he remain the same and come back as a solid official.”
