Literally tens of millions of soccer fans are going to be stuck to their televisions watching this major event live or recorded. The major event is going to be as popular as the Olympic games and just as many nations have taken part in the major event. In all, there are 208 FIFA national teams and of all these soccer teams two hundred and four have taken part in the qualifications for this superb soccer event.
Since it is very much like the soccer version of the Olympic games, this global soccer event happens only once every 4 years. The qualification procedure for this awesome sporting event begun back in the year 2007 and 32 nations have reached through to the final cup tournament.
Team USA has showed up in the previous five World Cups and will surely again show up in the current year's cup. The Americans has found themselves up in Group C. Group C have 4 very strong nations. They are: Algeria, England, Slovenia and United States. The USA team will definitely have to contest with England as its most likely threat.
The games for USA go like so. On the 12th of June 2010 it will play England to start off. This match will be an incredibly hard soccer match for USA because England has an extremely strong side. A few critics have mentioned that England could go ahead and win the tournament altogether.
Next up in the line up of soccer games for the USA team is Slovenia. On June the 18th 2010 they will have a game with Slovenia at Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg. On the very same date England is going to be matched up against Algeria in Cape Town. Last of all for Group C, United States will have to go up against Algeria on the 23rd of June 2010. The game is going to be held at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria.
Although soccer in America doesn't seem to be all that mainstream. Soccer has risen in popularity over the past few years. In the Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football otherwise called CONCACAF America's team is ranked 1st. As a nation, United States is said to be ranking in the top twenty in the world rankings.
Every single team participating in the 2010 FIFA World Cup are wearing entirely new outfits in South Africa. There are entirely new manufactured soccer jerseys for home and away soccer matches. There are soccer jerseys available to the general public. The general public can support their favourite country of choice and buy these high quality soccer jerseys developed by extremely popular manufacturers like Nike and Adidas.
Back in 2002, United States got up to the quarterfinals. Getting up to the quarterfinals was an amazing achievement. Hopefully the American team can go one step further and reach the semifinals or even take out the cup itself. If you want to support your favourite country then I suggest you get your very own soccer jersey and enjoy your favourite team play.
There is absolutely nothing stopping any team from winning. Team USA has gone through qualification and so have 31 other nations. Every single nation is going to place their best side forward and try their hardest at winning this major soccer event.
