The world cup is the true world sport competition: soccer. Some obscure sport???? No, about 5.5 million people in the world loves it. Just the 0.5 million remaining north Americans and some crazy people don't know anything about it.
To be true what is going to start this weekend are the finals. The world cup started last year with almost 200 national teams. They played against each other in regional groups (one for south america, europe, north america, africa, asia and oceania). 4-6 teams from each group qualified to the finals that start this weekend. In the total there are 32 teams in the finals and everybody call this the World Cup. This year World Cup happens in Korea and Japan. This event is seem for almost the entire planet but the Americans. ... and, the best team is Brazil ... Regards Alex -------------------------------------------------------------- Alexandre A. P.
