Hosting a world cup twice it really shows that those teams are the best world cup hosters..So i cant wait for the second host of world cup in 2014 brazil and am pretty sure that it will be the best world cup ever.
ReplyDeleteA well deserved one because they are world record holders of winning the World Cup more than any country.
DeleteYes we congratulate Brazil for being one of the countries to host world cup twice,hopefully it`s going to be a success
ReplyDeleteindeed world cup unite different countries, but as football growing in popular demand gives every coach heart attack, Brazil may take the advantage but spain is the only team for me that plays an conversing football,bear in mind that i am behind Bafana Bafana
ReplyDeleteThe current World Cup champions Spain are playing a carpet football and they are hard to defeat but Brazil could use the home advantage to claim the title for the sixth time.
Deletewow so geat Fifa is a diversive organisation that unites diferen nations togeher through football
ReplyDeleteFootball is the only sport that plays a huge role of uniting the natuions and the world has become one because of this tournament.
DeleteWow! didn't even know when was established. Anyway they brought nations together and put the love of beautiful game together for all raceses.
ReplyDeletewow i ddnt knew that brazil had hosted this cup before, atleast we as South African we have experianced such opportunity and lets hope that brazil will not disappoint us.and lets hope that there will be more celebrations as fifa celebrites its 20th of existance.
ReplyDeleteKeep in touch with this blog you will learn more about soccer...and i hope Brazil will host ba successful event like South Africa did in 2010.
Deletei really think that sport is the only thing in this world that can unite people
ReplyDeletePlenty of sport activities but this one is the unique one that brings unity.
DeleteI am glad that South Africa managed to host the 2010 Fifa World Cup successfully, this goes to show that if you want something you will work hard for it. Brazil proves to be a victorious country when it comes to soccer and I really hope that it caters fot this event successfully in 2014 as there is a lot be done.
ReplyDeleteIt was time for Southern homisphere to prove that they are able to host such big events and a well deserved one for Brazil as a reward of holding the world record of winning the World Cup more than any country.
DeleteBrazil rocks! it is true, Soccer brings the world together.
ReplyDeleteSoccer brings nations together indeed. Brazil is one of the best football nations in the world, I just hope they can pull this off and host the world cup succesfully as South Africa has set a standard for them to beat with the Fifa world cup 2010 being a success.
ReplyDeleteGot to agree with you because it was a point proven by South Africa to whole world not to undermine so-called small countries and looking on the FIFA comments about South Africa hosting the 2010 World Cup it showed that it was a success and hopefully Brazil will take it from South Africa to host a successful event.
ReplyDeleteI have high expectations for the 2014 world cup, largely because it is in Brazil. It will surely be one to remember, I hope that South Africa does better in 2014 than they did in 2010.
ReplyDeleteBrazil will not win the SWC, its style has not impressed me but im confident they are goint to successfully host it
ReplyDeleteYeah..actually this is about the reputation of hosting such big event but going there with that mind of winning it in their home soil is going to be an easy task for them but they will try to impress their fans as they will be playing at home.
Deletethis tournament has showed us great football all this years we have seen great legends playing on this platform its great that it is still going strong and about the favaourits to win its too early to tell but one thing for sure its going to be a craker
ReplyDeleteHosting a world cup, takes a country to a totally new level, it brings tourist attraction and creates awareness for the country.
ReplyDeleteWorld cup, is good for building relationships because it brings opportunities to the host's citizens to get in to business, from selling country foo, crafts accomodation and so on. Brazil hosting world cup twice is unfair because I thnk that opportunity has to be given to other countries that have never held it before
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you when you say is a business opportunity but saying Brazil hosting the world cup for the second is unfair ,i really don't agree because they do deserve to host it and is a reward of winning the world cup more than any country since the formation of the tournament..
