This is because the plane containing the equator does not cut the sun perfectly in half. What I mean by that is that the earth is tilted. Today, the earth is at such a position with the sun that the southern hemisphere is in front of the northern hemisphere for receiving sunlight. Because the earth rotates every day, the northern hemisphere will briefly be in front of the southern hemisphere (day), but for most of the day-the longest percentage of the day all year-the southern hemisphere will be in front(night).
