World Cup 2010 : Update
Jun. 16th, 2010 07:59 pmHaving seen all the major teams already, I must note that apart from Germany (with their Teutonic spirit) and Netherlands (with their efficiency) and South Korea (with their speed) I am not terribly impressed by anyone else. Germany is going to win the whole thing, right?
In FIFA rankings order, top nine teams:
1) Brazil. This is becoming Brazil's tradition: sparks of brilliance among some odd defending.
2) Spain. Where did the team that won European Cup 2008 disappear?
3) Portugal is the only team I actively dislike, mostly for their "I am emo, I am crying, I am complaining to the referee" tactics; so far they are utterly unimpressive.
4) Netherlands. This is my sweepstakes team, and they look terribly efficient. Go go Go Netherlands!
5) Italy is better known for it's defense than for it's attack, and they have always been late starters. I have hope!!!!
6) Germany completely destroyed Australia and have been the most impressive team so far. They are going to win.
7) Argentina looks similar to Brazil: one minute they do something interesting, another minute everything falls to pieces. But Maradona is one of my main sources of this championship's entertainment
8) England. I kind of liked them but I might be wrong.
9) France are also known for their late starter strategies, but come on, guys! Some people paid their money to see you playing, please make a little bit of effort!
I have put together a little set of World Cup pictires. I was debating with myself as to which one is the best but I decided on the one below: this is what the World Cup is all about!
