All the teams can hope to do is get through the matches without losing heart. To win they need to play by the book and not get too big headed if they win. To win they need to have a strong team that can play hard and win without letting the standards drop!Plan for the worst and if it does happen it won't be too disappointing.

I think it's an excellent idea. It will be great to bring a little bit of national spirit to the game and watch different countries have a friendly competition with one another. i would love to see it grow into something big like the world cup of soccer. I'm really excited about it and i hope it turns out to be a success.

No. When your home team is not playing you naturally pick a favorite. It could be because you have some affiliation to that other Country or just because you enjoy their game. I'm Portuguese and when we are not in the finals I like Brazil (we used to be the same country and speak the same language), but I've also picked other teams, like Argentina in 1986 or France in 1998 because they played a beautiful game.

Countries have to bid to host the world cup - members of the various football associations around the world then vote for the country they think will provide the best world cup - often they vote for the country they have most affiliation with - I don't think Brasil have bid that often.

ok it takes a month to finish the world cup. it starts out with 32 teams.  they are all seperated into groups. there are 8 groups. in those groups there are 4 teams. so all those teams play each other and the top two teams go on to the next round. in that round there is only 16 teams. then all those people play each other and if you loose once your out of the tournament. then you go to the next  round. which is only eight teams.  then they play each other. then the top four teams go to the next round and they all play each other. which leads us to the last round where to two best teams play each other. that's how the tournament  works. i hope that wasn't too confusing lol.

Hi there!\n\nBBC is transmitting since march 2006 a series of documentaries about World Cup Stories. \n\nEach program focuses on one nation's World Cup achievements, contrasting victories and defeats on the field with events and influences off it ( such as war, economic and political instabilities, etc).\n\nSince is World Cup's year, why don't you choose Football, more precisely the World Cup, as a great occasion to be your main theme ?\n\nIf you need inspiration, I suggest you try to watch specially these 2 documentaries ( they are pretty cool ):\n\nBrazil: The Golden Team\nThink of the World Cup and you automatically think of Brazil. \n\nWe tell the story of how, inspired by the incredible talents of two of the greatest footballers of all time, Pele and Garrincha, Brazil put behind it one of the World Cup's greatest upsets to dominate the competition over the last 50 years. \n\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nArgentina: From Darkness Into The Light\n\nWe see how Argentina emerged from the suffering of military dictatorship and the Falklands War to find a new national self-confidence in the 1980s inspired by the genius of Diego Maradona. \n\nFor more information you can try to access this page:\n\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/4977066.stm\n\nOr just go to bbc.com \n\nI hope this can help you.\n\nGood Luck !\n\nClaire ;P

Football is my greatest passion, although it has only been so for the last 6 years.  Previous to that I was busy having babies and working all hours, no time to watch TV.  But now my kids are grown up and I can watch as much as I like.  My favourite to win the FIFA World Cup 2006 has to be England, but I will be keeping an eye on France also (Thierry Henry)

There is in an international body governing this sport, so it's safe to say that soccer is the exactly  same sport in every part of the world, and it is call football instead of soccer,\nThe international governing body is referred to as FIFA, from the French "Federation Internationale de Football Associatif" (International Federation of Associative Football). The FIFA defines a soccer  calendar and the culmination of it is the World Cup which is held every 4 years at alternating locations. Only the best countries of each continent will go to compete, in total there are 32 countries.\nThe 32 countries are divided in 8 groups, with 4 team in each group.\nFirst Phase :\nEach team plays agains the other teams of his group.(Total 3 games per team)\nThe winner and runner-up of the group avance to the next phase.\n\nSecond Phase (group of 16):\nFrom this phase on it's one on one.\nThe winner of the game avance to the next phase\n\nThen the next phases are quaterfinals, semifinals and final.\nIn total, the teams that get to the final plays 7 games.\n\n For the 2006 world cup the 32 countries are:\nGroup 1: Germany, Poland, Ecuado and Costa Rica\nGroup 2: England, Paraguay, Trinidad and Tobago, and Sweden\nGroup 3: Argentina, Côte d'Ivoire, Serbia and Montenegro, and Netherlands\nGroup 4: Mexico, Iran, Angola and Portugal\n\nGroup 5: Italy, Ghana , USAand Czech Republic\nGroup 6: Brazil, Croatia, Australia and Japan\nGroup 7: France, Switzerland, Korea Republic and Togo\nGroup 8: Spain, Ukraine, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia

Player by player, Brazil is the favorite. However, everything leading up to the 2006 tournament is similar to that of Spain 1982. Brazil was the heavy favorite, like the 2006 squad. Player by player they were awesome (Zico, Socrates, Falcao, etc). England was also a heavy favorite along with Argentina. France, Italy and Germany, Belgium themselves were minor favorites who could do some damage along the way, but not expected to. Then you had the E. European squads who had the potential to go far but were too full of surprises to know how they would flare (Poland, Hungary, U.S.S.R., Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia). Spain had a nice squad but a long shot. The new teams that qualified were expected to just participate and die out, but in the end most gave surprises like Honduras, Algeria, Cameroon, who almost eliminated group favorites until their last game. \n\nI believe 2006 will replay like 1982. Brazil will overwhelm, but fall short by a soccer power not likely to go far (like Italy vs Brazil in 1982). England will go far too, but fall short. Same for Argentina. Spain will underachieve as it always does since 1982, and the new teams will surprise many and give many squads a run for their money. So I will say that the team to win the 2006 world cup shall be either Italy or Germany, 3rd and 4th place between France and a E. European squad (Poland, Czech Rep. or Ukraine) if not Holland.
