The United States have taken part at nine FIFA World Cups. The South Africa 2010 will be the Stars and Stripes’ sixth consecutive finals appearance after qualifying in the first place at the final six-team Hexagonal phase of North, Central America and Caribbean zone. It was in Germany in 2006 when this team bid farewell to the tournament at first round.

Germany has won the FIFA World Cup thrice (1954, 1974, 1990). The 2006 World Cup was hosted by this country and it was more than a chance for them to participate in this distinguished sporting event but also an opportunity to showcase the beauty of their country. They finished third in their home soil.

Five-time world champion, Brazil is getting ready to challenge their 19th successive FIFA World Cup Finals. Brazil is the only country to have won the title marvelously five times! Coach Dunga is looking forward to secure the sixth crown.

France has become an expected presence in the latest years of the World Cup. The French team placed 2nd in the 2006 games. All in all, Les Bleus emerged in 12 final tournaments and one title for the host nation who triumphed in 1998!

Mexico is aspiring to make it to the upcoming tournament and replicate their best-ever performances in the finals.

Argentina is serious about winning the crown in South Africa in 2010 for the first time in 24 years. This team became two-time champions (1978 and 1986), and twice runners-up (1930 and 1990), which makes four World Cup Finals all in all. Argentina is one of the big guns of the global game.

England exhibited a tough face in the 2006 World Cup. They were victorious in 1966 on home soil!

Ukraine placed second in Group H with six points in the World Cup 2006. This was their first World Cup finals. This is a team of highly-talented group of players with fabulous attack. They were beaten by Spain but they were victorious over Saudi Arabia and Tunisia. They faced Italy and lost to the controlling offense of the champions.

The 2006 World Cup was good for Portugal even though the team lost to Germany. It will be Portugal’s fifth FIFA World Cup in South Africa 2010. Will this year’s tournament stop Portugal from being just ‘candidates’ to the trophy and run home with the crown?
