It's me and I'm updating just about 45 mins after the end of the final match of 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa. Before I go any further, SPAIN HAS WON THE FIFA WORLD CUP!!! It was a great match, even though it went deep into extra time. Exciting and thrilling. Spain played really well. Holland didn't do so well. YOU---> Hey, maybe that's why they didn't win the World Cup.
Spain had lots of chances. Torres was finally played. Jesus Navas almost scored. Just imagine what the headlines would be like if he scored. Hahaha. Holland was easily outplayed by the spanish. Arjen Robben had quite a few chances to score for Holland.
Howard Webb did quite a good job refereeing the match, though he gave out quite a lot of yellow cards. IIRC, 10 for Holland and 4 or 5 for Spain. Heitinga got sent off. Spain almost got a penalty. Luckily, we did not have to go to extra time. Andres Iniesta scored in the 116th minute, being a hero for Spain.
Now Spain are both European and World Champions at the same time. The last time this was achieved, West Germany did it. They are set to defend their European championship in 2 years and World in 4 years in Rio de Janeiro.
VIVA LA ESPANA BABY!

Netherlands, Uruguay, Deutschland, Espanyol
I have yet another FIFA World Cup post. This time, it is about the semi-finalists. This is the FIFA World Cup final I'm hoping for: Uruguay v Germany. Something about it makes me feel that it is a classic. Uruguay, the winner of the first ever FIFA World Cup in 1930. Germany. A good team. MUST WIN! Believe it or not, the octopus that predicted Germany's loss against Serbia and win against England and Argentina, now predicts that Spain will win. I just hope that it gets it wrong like in Euro 2008.
MUST WIN! MUST WIN! MUST WIN!
Think about this first, guys. If Netherlands and Spain lose, they will face each other in the 3rd and 4th placing match. In that match, I WILL support Spain. I chose them at the start, and I'll chose them over any other team.(Except Germany)
Now, after the June holidays, I can really start to feel the pressure to the Prelim exams and PSLE.
GO GERMANY! DEUTSCHLAND!
Het jy'n goeie FIFA World Cup,
MUST WIN! MUST WIN! MUST WIN!

FIFA World Cup
Tomorrow is the start of the FIFA World Cup and I'm pretty excited. The FIFA World Cup is an event that is held once every four years for a duration of a month. It is the highest international football honour and only 7 countries have ever won it. Brazil tops the chart with 5 wins, Italy with 4, Germany with 3, Argentina and Uruguay with 2 and France and England with 1.
This year's world cup will be held in South Africa as part of a policy to rotate the event among football confederations. The official theme song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup can be found here(go on, click it!) . It is called Waka Waka and for some reason, I don't like it. No, I'm not racist and I don't hate other religions. I respect everybody.
With that out of the way, we can get on to the opinions. But first, here's what the trophy looks like:
Just so that nothing bad happens, I'm going to tell you something VERY public. You know what it is? No? Wanna know? Well, ok. I am not associated with FIFA in any way and the trophy and logo belongs to FIFA. The pictures were gotten from Wikipedia.
Back to what I said earlier. Opinions. A lot of people, including experts, say that Spain is going to win the World Cup this year. This is probably due to the fact that they won the Euro 2008. I have three choices for who's gonna win the World Cup this year. 1) Argentina. They have a great squad which includes Tevez, Messi, Milito and Zanetti. 2) Spain. Yes, Spain. I agree with some of the experts. I just don't believe that Portugal can win. And finally, 3) Italy. Italy won the previous World Cup. They might be able to defend their title. They have Buffon, Cannavaro, De Rossi, Iaquinta, etc.

And as 2 final notes, I do 60 sit-ups per day. 30 in the morning, 30 at night. The second one, you obsessed Justin Bieber fans can go watch your MTV while us football fans watch our
