Something About 2010 World Cup South Africa

For the host country South Africa, the 2010 World Cup is more than just a global soccer tournament. It represents vivid proof that a nation that once symbolized racial oppression has been transformed into a vibrant multicutural society. On the field, 32 teams will compete in an attempt to lift the coveted trophy. As usual, the tournament will provide us with unforgettable games, moments, heroes and even villains.

FIVE INJURED PLAYERS TO KEEP AN EYE ON
An injury epidemic has already ruled out several players, including Essien (Ghana), Michael Ballack (Germany), David Beckham (England), Ferdinand (England), John Obi Mikel (Nigeria), Salvador Cabanas (Paraguay), Carlo Costly (Honduras), Jose Bosingwa (Portugal), Charlie Davies (United States) and Rene Adler (Germany). Here are five other injury concerns:

1. Didier Drogba, Ivory Coast. The African player of the year and remarkable humanitarian broke his right arm against Japan and is still hopeful of playing in the World Cup after undergoing surgery over the weekend. If he can’t play, Ivory Coast’s scoring burden will fall on Gervinho.

2. Arjen Robben, Netherlands. The injury-prone right winger can be devastating when healthy, but Robben injured his left hamstring late in a friendly on Saturday against Hungary and did not travel with the rest of the Netherlands team to South Africa.

3. Humberto Suazo, Chile. La Roja’s top striker is expected to miss at least the team’s opening game against Honduras after suffering a left hamstring injury in a friendly against Israel.

4. Jozy Altidore, United States. The starting forward suffered a mild ankle sprain in practice last Wednesday and sat out the Americans’ 3-1 win against Australia on Saturday. He’s listed as day-to-day.

5. Andrea Pirlo, Italy. The playmaker injured a calf in a friendly against Mexico and is questionable for the World Cup.

On the ground in South Africa, Grant Wahl, Peter King, Mark Bechtel, Joe Posnanski, Steve Davis and Jonathan Wilson among others, will convey the flavor and fervor of the tournament with round-the-clock reporting, in-depth analysis and video discussion of all 65 matches.

Is it a wag wag...world?

Tans, T-shirts and text messages - Cheryl Cole (then partner of Ashley Cole Watch) Coleen McLoughlin (Wayne Rooney girlfriend) and Victoria Beckham,    England vs. Trinidad and Tobago at the 2006 World Cup. Photo: PAI happened, some of Richard Bacon and Peter Crouch the shocking moments in the history of the World Cup draw last night.
Most shocking to me is that the birth of the WAG, or even the final cut.

Indeed, the vivid memories of Baden-Baden in 2006, disturbing and shocking enough for Fabio Capello was trying to a Wag-Free World Cup for England in South Africa to impose, no, I'm sure, beyond any sense of outrage in the clothing, but mostly because I did not want a repeat of the tail wagging the dog.
But probably not necessary. At this stage, is about two WAGs much chance of success than second SATC
The World Cup seems enough of a WAG-free zone, even without drastic measures Capello. taken the age, divorce, broken relationships, personal injury, trade commitments, career and family, have or take their toll.
Victoria Beckham, once known as the queen of the wags will not be there because David did not play. Coleen Rooney, once seen as heir to Posh apparently decided to stay home with your new baby, Kai. Call Me Cheryl Tweedy, the former wife of Ashley Cole, has left the building. Ellen Rives split with Frank Lampard, it will not, and whether to let the new understanding of midfield, obligations Christine Bleakley of BBC, is by his leash a moot point. Melanie Slade is a fairly non-boot, too, was because her boyfriend Theo Walcott in the England team left.
Let striker Peter Crouch beautiful girlfriend, Abbey Clancy, Carly sugar, the coach and the wife of the attack in midfield player, Joe Cole, Alex Curran, wife of Steven Gerrard and Toni Poole, the wife of John Terry.
But four pep up shakes, even if a handful of aspiring WAG in the wings. From this original group, only Abbey Clancy, who was an accidental modeling assignment in South Africa, hook a certainty.
However, these early days, and only one Louis Vuitton bag was unzipped, or Book of Bollywood. If England play Algeria, Slovenia, United States and possibly in Ghana, either in the quarters and that's where the quake could be based on the warpath again.
English players are to remain in their training camp in Bafokeng, just 14 miles conditioned limo ride away, the glittering glamorous six-star Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Hotel (a suite with Jacuzzi, indoor and called on the balcony) - a sanctuary for Wagdom if there ever was one.
Keep shaking the World Cup? Capello is also likely that England is a gateway to one shot on goal.
