South Africa World Cup 2010

World Cup....Safari??

2010-05-19T11:59:00.000-07:00

Hahaha..32 beast lie in wait for the cup at the World Cup finals. We went into the bush to check out who are the predators for the 2010 World Cup..

ALGERIA

World ranking: 27

If they were a safari animal, they'd be a...Cobra. Don't turn your back on them or they'll give you a nasty bite - as West Germany found out in 1982.

ARGENTINA

World ranking: 9

If they were a safari animal, they'd be a...Puff Adder. Watch an inflated Diego Maradona spit out more poison at the press.

AUSTRALIA

World ranking: 19

If they were a safari animal. they'd be...Hyena. Loud and ugly, the Aussie will strut about making sure everyone sees them.

BRAZIL

World ranking: 2

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Lion. Undoubted king of the jungle, will look to devour all by combining samba style with laying in the sun faking injuries.

CAMEROON

World ranking: 20

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...African Wolf Spider. Tehy use their legs to catch and crush prey in sunlight.

CHILE

World ranking: 13

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Snow Leopard. They can't change their spots and are always very efficient but dull.

DENMARK

World ranking: 34

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Baboon. Will swarm all over the opposition but get caught napping.

FRANCE

World ranking: 8

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Cheetah. Thierry Henry's handball - say no more.

GERMANY

World ranking: 6

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Crocodile. Feared and dislike by all other countries, but they might try to swallow too much.

GHANA

World ranking: 31

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Wildebeest. Known for perishing in great numbers as they try to cross crocodile infested waters. Would be an interestig match with Germany.

GREECE

World ranking: 11

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Ostrich. Powerful but ugly to watch. Absolutely no chance of taking off.

HOLLAND

World ranking: 3

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Zebra. They look great, everyone likes them but once there's a bit of of noise they run for dear life.

HONDURAS

World ranking: 36

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Mosquito. You'll know they're there because their fans will bring a buzz to the place. But the team is unlikely to find the net.

ITALY

World ranking: 5

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Golden Cat. Always look their best, immaculate on and off the pitch. Stylish, elegant and coutious. Often get the cream.

IVORY COAST

World ranking: 25

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Giraffe.Great to watch on the move but, like Didier Drogba once they fall down, they can't get up again.

JAPAN

World ranking: 45

If they were a safari animal, they'd be...Gazelle. Fleet of foot but too lightweight by far.

Die DFB-Elf

2010-05-15T10:17:00.000-07:00

Die DFB-Elf...or the DFB-Eleven, nickname given to German national football team. They are one of the three most successful national teams at international competitions, having won a total of three World Cups, being runners-up for four times and 3 times for thrid place. With the faces like Michael Ballack, Lucas Podolski, Miroslav Klose, Philipp Lahm and many more, no doubt they would among the teams that we should consider as a favourite to reach the final.

World Cup Legends...

2010-05-13T10:27:00.000-07:00

Since 1930 since the first World Cup being played at Estadio Centenario in Montevideo, Uruguay a lot of great players had showed their skills, determination and everything they had to win the pretigious award. Here we had the list of the players that is part of the history in World Cup..

Pele

A veteran of four World Cups, scorer of 1,283 first-class goals - 12 of them in World Cup final tournaments - a member of those magical Brazilian squads that won soccer's greatest prize in 1958, 1962 and 1970. But just as a collection of notes do not make a Beethoven symphony, statistics cannot capture the majesty of those glorious Brazilian sides. This was football played to a samba beat. Beautiful skills, astonishing speed and ball control - and of all those great players in the yellow and green shirts, Pele was the greatest of them all. He was lithe, agile, strong and seemed to be able to make the ball do as he pleased. Blessed with a stunning shot and an ability to soar above defences, he was expected to perform some astonishing feat of trickery every time he was in possession.Three decades on, the chants may be different. But it was the Brazil of Pele which gave them to the world.

Diego Maradona

By many he is the greatest Football player of all time. He was born on October 30th 1960 in Lanus outside Buenos Aires. There he played for Los Cebollitos (The little onions), before he joined Argentinos Juniors. At 16 he was Argentina's youngest-ever international when he played against Hungary. Two years later he captained the World Youth Cup winners and was soon transferred to Boca Juniors for £1.000.000. The success continued and he was voted South American Player Of The Year in 1979 and 1980

Franz Beckenbauer
Franz Beckenbauer is the only man to have won the World Cup both as a player and as a manager. His roll of honour is unique. Captain of West Germany when they won the World Cup and the European Championship, he also led his club, Bayern Munich, to three successive European Cups and also to the European Cup Winners' Cup.

Garrincha

Garrincha was as brilliant on the pitch as he was wild off of it. He is known as the greatest dribbler in soccer history. Even though he was born with crippled legs and retained a distorted left leg even after an operation, he never let this affect his wonderful ball skills, making some of the most beautiful soccer performances ever.

Michel Platini

Michel Platini was beyond compare as a creative mid-fielder, his record of 68 goals in 147 league games for Juventus is remarkable. Michel Platini is only the second player (after Johan Cruyff) to win three European Footballer of the Year awards. In 1987 Platini was appointed the French national coach, which he relinquished after the 1992 European Championship. He was the co-organizer of the 1998 France World Cup. Platini is recognised as the greatest scorer in the history of the French national team.

Johan Cruyff

Cruyff was one of a number of youngsters who emerged with Ajax of Amsterdam in the late Sixties and came to dominate European and world football in the early Seventies. Cruyff was the most outstanding of them all and was seen by many as the natural successor to Pele as the world's greatest player. He won a hat-trick of European Cups with Ajax, the World Clubs' Cup and was three times European Footballer of the Year. At their peak, the Dutch side he captained were the most exciting and talented team in international football, yet, strangely, they never won a major trophy during his reign.

Eusebio

usebio was the top scorer at the 1966 World Cup (9 goals) held in England. Here his lightning fast acceleration and wonderful dribbling skills earned him acclaim. His trademark was a spectacular shot, which allied to his powerful running and dribbling skills, made him one of the most dangerous strickers of his era. After scoring 38 goals in 46 games for Portugal, he had to end his first class career in 1974, when at age 32, he injured his knee so badly he was advised never to play again. In Eusebio's spectacular career he played 715 games and scored 727 goal.

Zico

Born, Artur Antunes Coimbra, known as Zico, was the youngest of three footballing brothers. Zico needed a diet of anabolic steriods and vitamins to build himself up, but it was his natural talent that made him a superstar. In spite of his great ball skills, a sharp mind and thunderous shots, he failed to win the World Cup with Brazil in three attempts (1978, 1982 and 1986).

Zinedine Zidane

Arguably the best football player in the World Cup 1998 and in the world right now. His presence and play making ability is unmatched. One of only two three-time FIFA World Player of the Year winners and also won Ballon d'Or in 1998. Even after his retirement in fotball he sis till actively involve with his former club and charity works.

Can they fly high???

2010-05-11T17:12:00.000-07:00

Currently ranked at no.4 in FIFA World Ranking, the Oranje or the Flying Dutchmen, could they fly high this time? As thebest World Cup victories was in 1998 where they are at 4th place.

Flawless during the qualifiers and allying sturdiness with their traditional stylish play, the Oranje will start as fovourite in Group E, but will be wary of three formidable afversaries in Denmark, Cameroon and Japan.

The Dutch team went on to secure a 100 percent record in their qualification campaign, winning all eight games and becoming the first European team to qualify for 2010 FIFA World Cup.

Now held your head up high all Oranje supporters!!! Wear your beautiful orange jersey strikingly to show your support to Holland football team..place your order here by sending email to iwantjersey@gmail.com.

World Cup Trivia - 2

2010-05-09T02:51:00.000-07:00

Who says there is no such thing as home advantage? - Out of the 19 World Cups so far, 6 have been won by the host country.

Bora Milutinovic coached in every tournament between 1986 and 2002 - but for different teams: Mexico, Costa Rica, USA, Nigeria and China.

No European team has won a World Cup played outside of Europe...hmmm...can it be different this time??

Two players have scored in four successive finals tournaments? Both Pele of Brazil and Uwe Seeler of West Germany have scored in the finals of 1958, 1962, 1966 & 1970.

Cameroon's Roger Milla is the oldest player at the World Cup - he was 42 years and 39 days old when he played his last match against Russia in 1994. Northern Ireland's Norman Whiteside is the youngest ever finals player, being just 17 years and 41 days when he took the field against Yugoslavia in 1982.

Let the lions roar!!! Auumm!!!!
