S.African Quinton Fortune: "I am Here because God Blessed Me"

|PIC1|Manchester United winger Quinton Fortune, appreciates every one of the 53 international caps he has won for South Africa:

I think the more I learn about South Africa, the history, the more you appreciate wearing the jersey. There’s a lot of people went through difficulties for us to be in this position today, so I am very proud and very honoured to represent my country.

He is also quick to thank God for his footballing abilities, and aims to reflect God’s goodness in his actions.

I’ve been blessed to come to Manchester United in the first place. It doesn’t matter if you play for the biggest club in the world, I know I am in this position because God has blessed me to be here. I hope through whatever I do, off the pitch or when people look at me, I can hopefully show some sign of God and hope to make some small real difference.
