Default 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup..


Wooaahhh, No football lover opened this thread... It's fotball fever again and it's prelude to the 2010 FIFA World Cup... As always i'm supporting italy, and right now it's ITALY VS USA, But italy is trailing with one goal


Qualified teams with qualification
  • South Africa -----------------2010 FIFA World Cup host.
  • Italy ------------------------2006 FIFA World Cup winner.
  • United States----------------2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup winner.
  • Brazil --------------------Copa América 2007 winner.
  • Iraq----------------------2007 AFC Asian Cup winner.
  • Egypt--------------------2008 African Cup of Nations winner.
  • Spain--------------------UEFA Euro 2008 winner.
  • New Zealand-------------2008 OFC Nations Cup winner.


Group A
  • Iraq
  • Spain
  • South Africa
  • New Zealand


Group B
  • Brazil
  • United States
  • Italy
  • Egypt

In Group A match South Africa Drew with Iraq and spain thrashed kiwis by 5 goals, In group B the first match was real treat where egypt played real well but because of penalties brazil manage to defeat egypt 4 goals to 3, and italy-US match in progress...

So who you're supporting???

It's not about best team... It's about play, Laker play amazing basketball, Loved Bryant and O'Neal(Moved to Phoenix Suns.) combination which helped the Lakers win three straight NBA titles.... Never liked australia(Cricket) when they were in the peak, Never supported brazil(Football),


BTW spurs is also good team

Today's match

Spain Vs Iraq

Most of us would put money on spain, But iraq is capable of turning the match at any time. Emad Mohammed and Younis Mahmoud played really well in AFC cup, So i'm hoping to see good match, Spanish team is full of superstars, so they have the pressure to win this clash


South Africa Vs New Zealand

Both are almost same kind of team, But South africa moral would be high in comparison of kiwis who faced 5 goals defeat agaisnt spain... My money on SA...

Iraq is a good Soccer Team. Will be an interesting match ...

I am not sure about the other match ... sounds like a cricket match..
