It’s riveting to see the world going gaga over the FIFA2k10. India which is usually a cricket loving nation is also equally driven to this fifa-mania.
The tournament starts with Spain as favorites who amazed the world with their 1-0 win over Germany in Euro Cup 2008 final. Though it was Torres magic in the euro final the names David Villa, Sergi Ramos and Casillas also swayed the world.
Brazil as usual came to the tournament as favorites under Dunga’s management. He led Brazil to world cup victory in 1994. All eyes are set on him who dropped Ronaldinho from the squad. Kaka and Robinho are the pillars of the team.
Argentina, the team hitting most of the headlines is under Diego Maradonna’s charge. Not to forget the mesmerizing Messi who is the backbone of Argentina squad along with Tevez. Can eccentric Maradonna do it again for Argentina??? is the question haunting the people. Pele and other legends already started to castigate Maradonna’s capabilities.
England is always a team of superstars but never find its footage in the recent world cups. Though Beckham is out of the tournament it still has the names of Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard, Terry and Cole. The team is of superstars and is considered as one of the best teams from their performance in world cup qualifiers.
Germany, my favourites are always on low profile and are coming up with the youngest squad in the last 40+ years. Michael Ballack is out of the tournament with injury. Striker Klose, midfielder Podolski and captain Lahm should ride the Germans to further rounds.
Italy, the 2006 champions are in tournament with no expectations from media and people in Italy. So let’s see how the champions fare at the world cup.
France without Zizou can do some magic or not???? is the question in everyone’s mind. Without Zidane France didn’t fare well even in 2002 world cup. They are ousted without scoring a single goal.
Portugal, Ivory Coast and Cameroon are mostly dependent on their crunch players Ronaldo, Drogba and Etoo respectively and much is not expected from these teams.
South Africa, the hosts should elate the public and football followers of South Africa.
There are other teams who are coming all the way to Africa to show their pride and win the biggest sporting even on the planet.
So this is my preview on fifa 2k10.
I will update my views on the results in future.
