World Cup 2006: Worst World cup ever?
THe world cup is winding up. But some questions are in soccer fan's

minds. The quality of the world cup. HaS this world cup meet the

expectantions going by all the hype put into it??
Well The follwoinga are my Concerns and the short-comings of this

Germany 2006 World cup:
1. The Quality of the games played: To be frank some of the games have

been so sub-standard for a world cup(which is the apex of the soccer

game). Examples include England Vs Equador Second round game,

Switerland Vs Ukraine secong round, just to mention a few.

2. The Level of Officiating: THe referees In this world cup have Killed

most of the games. They showed favourity to big teams and the hosts. So

games have been marred with unnecesary red cards. Some games that

suffered this phenomenon are Germany Vs Sweden 2nd round, Brazil Vs

Australia Group stages, just a few to keep the list short.

3.Parading of old(veteran) Players: Some teams paraded old and tired

legs(especially France Les Bleu). We expect to see new players and

protegee who will brace the world cup and be "hungry" for success.

But apart from all these short comings, the world cup as it good sides.

The pitches are nice, No fans invading the pitch, controlled fan

violence(they did a good job with the troublesome Enlish fans).
