2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa

Kuna habari kuwa J-Z (Jacob Zuma) amewaalika marais wote wa Africa kwenye ufunguzi wa kombe la Dunia...Subirini tuone kama Mkwere ataacha kwenda kuosha nyota bondeni!
 
Lionel Messi, Argentina


Quite simply, Lionel Messi is the best player on the planet today. He looks so composed, so relaxed with the ball at his feet. He's just 22 years old (he'll turn 23 during the World Cup), yet plays like a veteran. He may not score the most goals during the next month because Argentina has so much attacking power, but you will tell your grandkids about him years down the road. If you have to choose one game and one player to watch, choose Lionel Messi.


 
Cristiano Ronaldo, Portugal


The 2008 FIFA World Player of the Year, Ronaldo combines everything that makes the sport fun to watch: speed, ball skills and a killer shot. He frustrates opponents, he's been known to dive, but he is simply electric. Portugal doesn't have a great squad top to bottom this year, but Ronaldo can produce goals out of nowhere, doing most of the work himself. When he's darting around in the offensive zone, he can almost single-handedly carry his team. There are not many players in the world about whom you can say that.


 


Didier Drogba, Ivory Coast


Simply put, he is the best player in Africa. And you won't have trouble finding the Chelsea star on the pitch. He's big, strong, fast, and always a focal point when the Ivory Coast is in the attacking zone. He takes the free kicks, he has a rocket shot, and he's deceptively quick with the ball at his feet. He's a pleasure to watch (just don't tell that to a Manchester United fan!).


 
Xavi, Spain


It's very difficult to decide who to watch on Spain. There are so many dynamic players, and the flowing style of football they play can leave you mesmerized (rather than focused). But if you are able to pick your jaw up off the floor, the man you need to track is Xavi. He's creative, but won't get fancy just for the sake of it. He's too smart for that. He controls the pace of the game, distributes with aplomb, and can put the ball in the back of the net when they need him.


 
Wayne Rooney, England


The Manchester United star had a superlative season for his club team, and led England in scoring during World Cup qualifying. He doesn't need to score to have a huge impact on the game, but he needs to have a huge impact on the game for England to make a deep run. He distributes the ball very well for a scoring striker, and can link up play as well as anyone. As goes Rooney, so goes England.



 
Arjen Robben, Netherlands


The Dutch have the talent to win the World Cup. Their roster is stacked. But this isn't the first time that's been the case for Holland. The key to their success will be Arjen Robben. The winger is electric with the ball, and a danger to score every time he touches it. His ability to cut in from the flank and get off his rocket left-foot shot is a sight to behold. Check him out when you're watching the Netherlands.


 
Maicon, Brazil


The easy choice for Brazil's 'player to watch' is Kaka. He's the most-hyped, and plays a central role on the pitch. But if you're watching a Brazil game on TV, keep your eye on the right back. Maicon is the most dynamic defender in the world, with an unparalleled ability to go forward and join the attack. He plays stellar marking defense, as well. It's easy to watch the strikers. It will be rewarding to watch Maicon.


 
Landon Donovan, USA


Remember: this isn't a list of the 10 best players, it's a list of 10 players you want to keep an eye on. For the U.S. to advance, Landon Donovan has to play extremely well. In his loan stint at Premiership side Everton this year, Donovan proved that he is a legitimate world-class player. But he was still a role player in England. For the U.S. to be successful (aka, advance to the second round), Donovan needs to dominate the midfield. He needs to control play, distribute, and at times he'll need to finish. The U.S. will only go as far as Landon Donovan takes them.


 
Philipp Lahm, Germany


As he regularly shows at Bayern Munich, Philipp Lahm is one of the best right backs in the sport. But this will be a new test for him. When Michael Ballack went down with an ankle injury, Lahm was thrust into the role of captain for Germany. While that may not be as big a deal for some teams, Germany is a young team that needs leadership. Lahm's ability to provide that will determine how far Germany goes -- and, indeed, if they can get out of a very tough group with Australia, Ghana and Serbia.


 
Franck Ribery, France


Group A is one of the toughest to predict in the World Cup draw. You've got Uruguay, a team that played very well in CONMEBOL qualifying and boasts a star in Diego Forlan; Mexico, a team that traditionally is strong in group play; South Africa, the host nation, which has historically been as good as a straight ticket into the knockout round (though it may not be this year); and France, perhaps the biggest mystery of all. A team loaded with individual talent, Les Bleus would not have even made the World Cup finals if not for a hand ball by Thierry Henry that went uncalled in the playoff against Ireland. And you've got Franck Ribery. Without question one of the most talented players in the world, Ribery has been embroiled in a prostitution scandal that, for a while, left his World Cup status in doubt. It will be Ribery's responsibility to elevate his game, and to carry a squad that should advance. But this France team is just such a mystery. Worth watching.


 
Dear all

I hope your fine and your family

Naomba mwenye ratiba ya kombe la Dunia


Thanks
 
Sidhani kama umechukua jitihada za kuitafuta ukaikosa! Kama unaweza kuweka bandiko hapa, bila shaka upo connected ktk internet, na kama upo connected mimi nadhani habari zilizotawala sasa hivi ni World Cup, so ukiGoogle utaipata kwa urahisi kabisa, naamini hivyo. Mimi sana sana ninaweza kuiweka hapa Excel spreadsheet ambayo kila baada ya mechi unajaza matokeo na kuSave, itakupangia msimamo wa kila group na nani anasonga mbele na atapambana na nani katika hatua inayofuata, hivyo hivyo hadi bingwa. Lakini ratiba mkuu, fanya homework ndogo bana, hata fifa.com ipo!

USA on biggest win bonus in World Cup history




The US squad at the World Cup will split a victory bonus of £13.8 million if they win the tournament in South Africa this month, making them the team with the greatest financial incentive at the event.

Each of the 23 players will collect £617,332 should they become the most unlikely winners in World Cup history, easily outstripping the £500,000-a-man on offer to Spain should Fernando Torres and co lift the trophy.

England's win bonus pool is kept confidential by the FA, but is believed to be in the region of £400-500,000 per player - but the entire England squad will donate all match fees to charity.

Brazil will offer each of their players around £250,000 for a win, while Germany will hand out £212,000 per man.

Yet the USA bonus is not dependent on overall victory: the players will share up to £1.1m in the group stage, a further £1.95m if they qualify for the last 16, £2.3m should they reach the quarter-finals and another £1.8m for making the semis. Should they make the final, they will then earn a further £4.7m, rising to £5.3m if they finish the job.

The money itself will come from FIFA, who pay the winners £21.4m in prize money, with £16.6m for the runners-up. Prize money then tapers off, but all teams participating in the finals are guaranteed a minimum of £5.5m.
