An Overview of the Different Groups in the Soccer World cup 2010

Even though you may or may not be an avid football fan, you are likely to find that other things will be of interest to you during the month long World Cup 2010 series. Under these circumstances, you may want to tape some events, or join with others to watch matches of special interest. Typically, knowing more about the team assigned to each group will help you determine how to organize your schedule so that you do not miss out on the best matches of the 2010 World Cup.

Group Name Designations

To begin, it is important to realize that the 32 qualifying teams were separated into 8 groups in order to create the first round of matches. While it may seem a bit confusing and lackluster, these eight groups are only assigned a single letter for their name. For example, Group A consists of teams from South Africa, Uruguay, Mexico, and France. Once the first round is completed, 16 of these teams will be eliminated.

Things to Know About Teams in Each Group

Many people that have an interest in the 2010 World Cup are also interested in taking bets on who will win. Since the group assignments in the first round does not necessarily have a bearing on the skills and reputation of each team, you will need to start by comparing teams based on group assignment. For example, even though South Africa has a very competitive team, it may easily be outshone by Mexico, Uruguay, or France. On the other hand, in Group C, it appears that England is favored because of playing against teams that are less well regarded.

Progression of Groups Through World Cup 2010 Rounds

Once the first round of matches is completed, the original groups will no longer have any particular meaning. In fact, the matches for the second, third, fourth, and final rounds will all be determined by performance in the former rounds. Perhaps it can be said that determining which matches to watch will become a matter of paying attention to matches that feature a team from your country. As may be expected, if you have a preference for specific players, then you will want to make that you leave time in your schedule to watch them play in real time.

As with the Olympic Games, the World Cup dedicated to football only occurs once every four years. Many people are excited by the 2010 World Cup ('VM Fodbold' in Danish) because it features players from 32 different countries. That said, if you only want to watch the highlights, it will be to your advantage to learn more about each team, and how the group assignments will either enhance or detract from their chances to make it into the second round of competition. At the very least, if a team from your nation of origin does not advance beyond this round; you will have a better chance of finding a second team to develop an interest in.
