HI in this opportunity I post about a topics that I Like so much! I hope you like too the FIFA world Cup.

The FIFA world cup is the most important sporting event in the planet at football levels .This global event is done once every four years and participate the thirty two countries qualified for this appointment. The qualifiers are held by continent and the only country that not participates in this process is the host country. The countries wishing to participate should be associated with the respective continental soccer federations.
Continental soccer federations are:

•AFC (Asian Football Confederation)
•CAF (Confederation African of Football)
•CONCACAF (Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football)
•CONMEBOL (Confederación Southamerican of football)
•OFC (Oceania Football Confederation)
•UEFA (United Associations European of Football)

Once classifieds the countries is realized a draw to complete the eight groups (with four countries everyone) in the first round. In this part of the FIFA world cup the countries vie a match against members of the group. Classified only two (the best score) to the second round. In the second rounds beginning the “die-die” because two countries play one match and continue progress at quarter finals the country that won the match. Same thing happens to continue for semifinal. The semifinal winners compete for the championship and the looser vie the third place. The first host country of the world cup in 1930 Was Uruguay counted with the participation of thirteen countries and crowned as champion Uruguay and was a success. then continued the development of the championship. So far been performed in eighteen times since it began except in 1938 and 1942 to reason of the Second World War.
In general the FIFA world cup is a important event not only sports but only social because has been carried out in almost every continent and has become increasingly crowded. Now the FIFA world cup is being disputed in South Africa, is first time that the cup is playing in Africa and our country is a favorite to be champion.
