World Cup 2010 Coverage
Posted on 02. Sep, 2009 by admin in World Cup
The biggest sporting event by far in 2010 is the World Cup to be held in South Africa. The World Cup is like the Olympics of football. Football is by far the most popular sport in the world and the anticipation for the Cup, even though it’s months away, is already building and being talked about on a daily basis. Drama has already begun to unfold as France illegally qualifies after the hand ball by Thierry Henry thus knocking Ireland out of the competition. England played qualifiers brilliantly earning them a top seeded spot with America, Algeria and Slovenia in their group. Despite most England fans breathing a sigh of relief with the rest of the group under England, the Yanks have made it clear that they will be no pushover.
As you’d expect, the closer we get to the June 11 2010 kickoff the worldwide coverage will only increase dramatically. Nostalgia for games past will mean seeing great World Cup moments from the past as well as highlights of this year’s squads and predictions of which teams should make it to the quarters and which teams may cause upsets. Also expect to see lots of coverage from non-traditional media such as fans and citizens filming world cup highlights and posting on YouTube. The internet will be the full of photos, commentaries, video of all aspects of this major event. World Cup 2010 coverage is expected to surpass the last Cup in Germany in 2006. This should make for a very exciting tournament and I personally cannot wait!
