The Final Draw was completed on early December in Cape Town and former President Nelson Mandela kicked off the proceedings with an emotional speech. “We feel privileged and humbled that South Africa has been given this singular honour of being the first African host country,” said the 91-year-old statesman. “We must strive for excellence in our hosting of the World Cup, while at the same time, ensuring that we are going to leave a lasting benefit to our people.” Thirty two teams in eight groups of four will compete for the most coveted Soccer Trophy. While the South Africans learned that the host nation’s Opening Match would be played on June 11 against Mexico at Soccer City, the Group D line-up caused the biggest stir. Germany, Australia, Serbia and Ghana will battle it out for two qualifying places for the round of 16, meaning two nations with huge soccer traditions and support will leave the tournament early. The encounter between England USA, scheduled for June 12, drew a lot of attention, bringing to mind the American’s famous 1-0 win over their transatlantic cousins at Brazil 1950. Group B is a difficult one, as Argentina Nigeria and Greece get the chance to revive their rivalry from 1994, and the clash between Brazil and Portugal on June 25 has the feel of a derby. The Spanish fans have put a lot of expectations on their team - “La Roja”- this year, they feel that anything less than bringing the Cup home would be a failure. Though Spain is the top favorite at this point, followed closely by Brazil, coach Vicente del Bosque put things in perspective: “I think that’s nonsense and an extremism but, in the times we live in, it seems that extremism sells.” Brazil is expected to have a great World Cup in South Africa, but its star Kaka -Ricardo Izecson Dos Santos Leite- knows that they will have to fight hard as Brazil was drawn in one of the toughest sections of all. “It’s a very difficult group, perhaps the hardest in the whole first round,” Kaka said. “Coming up against teams like Côte d’Ivoire, Portugal and Korea DPR is a great motivation for us because it means we have to go into the World Cup at our very best. We’ll need to prepare really well because if we don’t, we could be in for a nasty surprise.” The 2010 FIFA WORLD CUP SOUTH AFRICA is just around the corner.
