WORLD CUP.. (CONTINUE, groupe H)

2006-04-03T12:45:00.000-04:00

Spain are faced with a difficult task after the FIFA World Cup™ Final Draw in Leipzig grouped them with Ukraine, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia. The seeded nation have potential difficulties against all three opponents with Ukraine, appearing at the finals for the first time, among the most impressive European qualifiers. Tunisia are the reigning African champions while Saudi Arabia beat Korea Republic (semi-finalists at the 2002 FIFA World Cup) home and away to win their Asian qualifying group.
Matches

Date in your diary: Leipzig, 14 June, Spain v Ukraine
The first game in the group will give a better guide as to the impact Ukraine are likely to make on their debut. Spain, who so often underachieve, will be hoping to hit the ground running and show that it could be a case of 12th time lucky for them.

David v Goliath: Kaiserslautern, 23 June, Spain v Saudi Arabia
When the Saudi Arabians last faced one of Europe’s big battalions in 2002, Gemany thrashed them 8-0.

History repeats itself: Munich, 14 June, Tunisia v Saudi Arabia
There have been precious few previous meetings between the four nations. In 1985 Tunisia hosted the Saudis in a friendly and won 1-0, a scoreline that was reversed when the teams met in Riyadh three years later.

Analysis

Logic suggests that Spain and Ukraine will dominate but it is an intriguing group in which all four teams can be expected to compete strongly. Tunisia are returning to Germany where they gave a good account of themselves at the 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup, running Argentina close in a 2-1 defeat before defeating Australia 2-0.

If he recovers from injury in time, Ukraine will keep a close eye on Spain striker Raul. When the teams met in qualifying for the 2004 UEFA European Championship, the Real Madrid man scored three goals over the sides’ two matches. Ukraine have improved since then, becoming the first side from Europe to qualify for Germany and winning a group that included Turkey, Greece and Denmark.

Coach Roger Lemerre became the first coach to win continental titles in both Europe and Africa when he led Tunisia to their CAF African Cup of Nations success in 2004. They defeated Morocco in the final and edged out the same opponents to win a place in the FIFA World Cup finals for the third successive time. Saudi Arabia can go one better than that and in their fourth finals will be hoping to at least match their record in 1994 when they advanced to the second round before losing to Sweden.

Did you know?
Of the four African teams who competed in Korea/Japan in 2002, only Tunisia have made it back to the FIFA World Cup finals four years later.

WORLD CUP.. (CONTINUE, groupe G)

2006-04-03T12:43:00.000-04:00

Four years ago, everyone would have had Les Bleus down as favourites to take Group G. However, their traumatic experiences at Korea/Japan 2002 have left their mark and France's encounter with Togo - who, like Senegal in 2002, are making their first appearance at a FIFA World Cup™ finals - is far from a foregone conclusion. For their part, Switzerland proved to be more than a handful for France during the qualifiers, while Korea Republic's performance in Asia has earned them everyone's respect. Everything therefore points to this group being more open than it would first appear.

France
Togo
Korea Republic
Switzerland

Matches

A date for the diary: Stuttgart, 13 June, France v Switzerland
This derby between the 'Alpine neighbours' is one of the classic confrontations. The sides played out two hard-fought draws (0-0 and 1-1) in Group 4 of their qualifying campaign, although France got the upper hand with a 2-0 victory at UEFA EURO 2004.

David versus Goliath: Cologne, 23 June, Togo v France
On paper, this would appear to be an extremely one-sided contest between the world champions and a Togo side making their first appearance on world football's greatest stage. However, one need only think back to Senegal...

History repeats itself: Leipzig, 18 June, France v Korea Republic
The two sides met in a friendly on 26 May 2002, a few days before the finals in Korea/Japan kicked off, with France managing to snatch a hard-earned 3-2 victory.

Analysis
France, winners of the competition in 1998, and Korea Republic, semi-finalists on home soil in 2002, will start as slight favourites in this group. However, there is very little to choose between them and Switzerland, who were unbeaten in finishing second in their qualifying group. Still smarting from their ignominious first-round exit four years ago, France will be adopting a highly cautious approach this time round. Raymond Domenech's men topped Group 4 ahead of Switzerland, inspired largely by the return from retirement of the 'old guard', Zinedine Zidane, Lilian Thuram and Claude Makelele.

Alexander Frei and Johann Vogel, both of whom play in Ligue 1 in France, know their French opponents inside and out. Frei, who finished as the leading marksman in France last season, will be out to prove his worth following a disappointing end to Switzerland's qualifying campaign where he was below his best, particularly against the Republic of Ireland.

Before coming up against the French again in what could prove to be one of the key clashes in the group, Korea Republic should get a good work-out against Togo in their first match. The Hawks will be looking to cause an upset in their first appearance at a FIFA World Cup finals and they are capable of doing so with players of the calibre of Emmanuel Adebayor, the top scorer in the qualifiers with 11, among their ranks.

Did you know?
Zinedine Zidane suffered a damaged thigh muscle in a friendly against Korea Republic three days before the 2002 FIFA World Cup™ kicked off, an injury which kept him out of France's first two matches of the competition.

WORLD CUP.. (CONTINUE, groupe F)

2006-04-03T12:41:00.000-04:00

FIFA World Cup™ holders and five-times winners, Brazil will be favourites to advance as winners from Group F but predictions of an easy passage could well prove ill-founded. Croatia have their own past exploits to live up to and qualified impressively, while Australia will relish their return to Germany and football's greatest stage after a 32-year hiatus. As for Zico's Japan, they will be aiming to prove that it was not just home advantage that took them into the second round last time out.

Brazil
Croatia
Australia
Japan

Matches

Date in your diary: Dortmund, 22 June, Japan v Brazil
Brazil long provided the model for Japanese football to follow – a 'special relationship' underlined by Zico's appointment as Japan coach in 2002. Now the Brazilian football legend must take on the country he represented with such style at three FIFA World Cups.

David v Goliath: Munich, 18 June, Brazil v Australia
The two teams may share a love of gold and green but the similarities end there. While Brazilians have football in their blood, the sport has struggled for prominence Down Under. However, the cheers from the Socceroos' contingent when they were drawn with Brazil underlines this will be an occasion to savour on the Australians' second appearance at the finals.

History repeats itself: Nantes, 20 June 1998, Japan v Croatia Golden Shoe winner Davor Suker's 77th-minute strike settled the sides' meeting at the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France. It was both countries' first finals appearance – and the victory sent eventual semi-finalists Croatia into the second round, while eliminating Japan.

Analysis

Brazil will be the team to beat in Germany. Ronaldinho alone has the potential to light up the whole tournament and there is no doubt that at their best, Carlos Alberto Parreira's men have the attacking qualities to outclass any opponent. Yet each of their first-round rivals have matched the Seleção at one time or another.

Croatia should be stronger than the ageing team who disappointed at Korea/Japan 2002 and coach Niko Kranjcar will take heart from their 1-1 friendly draw with Brazil last summer. Likewise Zico, whose Japan side gave the Brazilians a real scare in the FIFA Confederations Cup in June, drawing 2-2 but very nearly securing a first ever victory over the South Americans.

Japan will be out to build on their success on home soil in 2002, where they reached the round of sixteen, and their matches with both Croatia and Australia look sure to be closely contested. With that in mind, the winners of their opening fixture against the Socceroos will gain a real shot of confidence. It will be fascinating to see what Guus Hiddink can achieve with the Australians, always combative and now sure to benefit from the experience of the man who led the Netherlands to the 1998 semi-finals and Korea Republic to the last four in 2002.

WORLD CUP.. (CONTINUE, groupe E)

2006-04-03T12:40:00.000-04:00

Ghana go into their first-ever FIFA World Cup™ finals in a group containing three of the top 12 teams in the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking. Despite being one of the seeded teams, the draw has hardly been kind to Italy, who find their path to glory obstructed by the high-flying Czech Republic and a USA side intent on proving that their quarter-final finish in 2002 was no fluke. The tussle for the top two spots promises to be thoroughly absorbing.

Italy
Ghana
Czech Republic
United States

Matches
Date in your diary: Hamburg, 22 June, Czech Republic v Italy
In such an evenly balanced group, there should still be plenty to play for come this last match between two of Europe's giants. When Pavel Nedved and his fellow UEFA EURO 2004 semi-finalists take on a new-look Squadra Azzurra bursting with ambition, a mouth-watering encounter should be on the cards.

David v Goliath: Hanover, 12 June, Italy v Ghana
For their FIFA World Cup debut, the Ghanaians kick off against Italy, old stagers at football's supreme event, with no less than 16 FIFA World Cup tournaments under their belt.

History repeats itself: Italy v USA In Rome in 1934, the Italians inflicted a real drubbing upon the Americans, running out 7-1 winners in the first round of the second FIFA World Cup. The Italians went on to lift the trophy.

Analysis
Italy's group, along with those of Argentina and England, is one of the toughest, as everyone had been keen to avoid the Netherlands and the Czech Republic. Despite their seeded status, the Azzurri have drawn the short straw and simply cannot afford to slip up in their opening game against Ghana. The Africans may be newcomers, but pushovers they are not, as Radomir Dujkovic's charges conceded just four goals in all 12 of their qualifying games. But in hungry young wolves Luca Toni and Alberto Gilardino, Italy will feel they have sufficient firepower up front, not to mention a typically unyielding defence.

In what is actually their fifth consecutive final phase, the United States will certainly have experience on their side. Moreover, they have never been as strong, having finished ahead of Mexico in qualifying. With their harmonious blend of old hands and solid young talent, Bruce Arena's charges are not to be taken lightly.

Despite having had to come through the play-offs, Czech Republic have (finally) booked their place at the global football festival and for this very experienced and close-knit group of players, it most likely represents a last chance of major silverware: the likes of Pavel Nedved and Jan Koller may not be as young as they were, but they are still just as talented.

WORLD CUP.. (CONTINUE, groupe D)

2006-04-03T09:58:00.000-04:00

Mexico have a reputation to live up to these days. Ricardo Lavolpe's side were among the eight seeded teams in the Final Draw, they qualified comfortably and they boast the world's top scorer in FIFA World Cup™ qualifying in Jared Borgetti.
El Tricolor are unlikely to have things their own way, however, not least against a Portugal team who boast their own goal machine in Pauleta, Europe's top marksman, and plenty of attacking flair. With the experience of several Bundesliga-based internationals, meanwhile, Iran could push for a first place in the knock-out rounds, while it will be fascinating to see how Angola fare on their debut finals appearance.

Mexico
Iran
Angola
Portugal

Matches

Date in your diary: Gelsenkirchen, 21 June, Portugal v Mexico
These teams will be most observers' favourites to fill the top two places in the group and this match could decide who comes out on top. It will also offer a chance to compare to respective merits of Pauleta and Borgetti.

David v Goliath: Cologne, 8 June, Angola v Portugal
A Hollywood scriptwriter could not have dreamt up a better scenario for Angola's first ever finals match. The African team will face Portugal, their former colonial rulers and a country where many of their footballers are based, among them the Benfica striker Mantorras.

History repeats itself: Angola v Portugal
Angola will be hoping history does not repeat itself. Their two previous meetings on Portuguese soil brought 5-1 and 6-0 defeats.

Analysis

With 12 previous appearances, Mexico are far and away this section's most experienced FIFA World Cup campaigners and will travel to Germany hoping to better their record in the last three tournaments which they exited in the second round. Their performance at the FIFA Confederations Cup last June augurs well, certainly: a Borgetti goal beat Brazil and only a penalty shoot-out defeat by Argentina denied them a place in the final.

A place in the last 16 is also the minimum target for Portugal, who have actually not been beyond the group stage of a FIFA World Cup since reaching the last four in 1966. One of the strongest European sides in qualifying and UEFA EURO 2004 runners-up two summers ago, the Portuguese are aiming to make up for previous disappointments on the world stage and in the Brazilian Luiz Felipe Scolari they have a coach well acquainted with winning FIFA World Cup matches.

The tournament is expected to mark Luis Figo's international football swansong but will also provide a platform for their latest wing wizard, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Portugal will be formidable first opponents for Angola on what will be an emotional occasion in Cologne. Given the countries' close association, the Angolans are unlikely to surprise Portugal but, by the same token, the familiarity could work in their favour as with Senegal and France in 2002. Angola coach Luis Oliveira Goncalves has the trust of his players and their team spirit is strong.

Like Angola, Iran will start out as underdogs but on their third finals appearance, they should benefit from the presence in German club football of several of their key players, including Hamburg playmaker Mehdi Mahdavikia. They beat the United States at France 98 and will probably have to record another famous win if they are to go into their final match against Angola with hope of progressing.

WORLD CUP.. (CONTINUE, groupe C)

2006-02-15T22:04:00.000-05:00

If ever there was a nightmare group, then this is it. Argentina, Netherlands, Serbia and Montenegro, and Côte d'Ivoire are all in the top 50 of the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking. The Oranje and the Albiceleste are third and fourth respectively. As a result, the South Americans, who were also drawn in a tricky group in 2002, face a tough battle if they are to fare any better than they did in Asia.
The Dutch, imperious in qualification, will have their hearts set on making a successful return after an eight-year absence. The Serbo-Montenegrins, meanwhile, will come to the tournament full of confidence fresh from a preliminary competition where their defensive solidity impressed the entire world. And if the Africans are considered the minnows of the group, they are nonetheless brimming with talent and enthusiasm. It would be a brave man who staked his reputation on predicting a winner...

FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking
Argentina 4th
Côte d'Ivoire 41st
Serbia and Montenegro 47th
Netherlands 3rd

I can tell you right now that Côte d'Ivoire will put a great show. Beside the fact that they are a smart team, talented and got a "cocky coach" (i.e. Henri Michel); they got the luckiest players in the world. a lot of promotions, lucrative contracts for their players and obviously high scoring in Europe backs my prediction. Now if you ask me how far they will go, I have no clue. African always showed great consistency in the first round and terrible performance in the second one… so.. no clue.

I believe Argentina will give a terrible show at this world cup, and the Dutch will come to compete well with the Africans. As for Serbia, they will lose all of their games. But hey!!!! I might be wrong.

That’s it for this time around.. come back for Group D’s analysis.

WORLD CUP.. (CONTINUE, groupe B)

2006-02-08T12:57:00.000-05:00

England, one of the seeds in the 2006 FIFA World Cup Final Draw in Leipzig, were grouped with familiar foes Sweden as well as Paraguay and a Trinidad and Tobago side who are competing in their first finals.
For England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson it is another clash against his home country and history favours Lars Lagerback's men. Paraguay, competing in the finals for the third successive time, will command respect having reached the last 16 in both 1998 and 2002, losing out to the eventual finalists on both occasions. Trinidad and Tobago, meanwhile, will be determined to put on a good show on their debut appearance.
FIFA/Cola Coca World Ranking
England 9th
Paraguay 30th
Trinidad and Tobago 51st
Sweden 14th

Matches

Date in your diary: Cologne, 20 June, Sweden v EnglandThis will be seen as the key fixture in the group and Eriksson will not need reminding that England do not have a happy record against his homeland. The sides drew 1-1 in Saitama in Korea/Japan 2002 and the Swedes then defeated England 1-0 in March 2004, continuing a long unbeaten run against England which stretches back to 1968.
David v Goliath: Nuremberg, 15 June, England v Trinidad and TobagoThis will be an occasion to relish for the Caribbean first-timers, many of whom ply their trade in England and Scotland.
History repeats itself: Berlin, 15 June, Sweden v ParaguayThe two nations met in the finals in Brazil in 1950. The game in Curitiba ended 2-2 and that was enough for Sweden to win Group 3 and progress to the next phase.

Analysis

England will be favourites to win the group and take the next step on the long road which they hope will see them claiming football's supreme prize 40 years after they were crowned world champions in their own country. However, Sweden, experienced campaigners at this level with their 11th appearance in the finals, will be strong contenders and will hope to improve on four years ago when they made it to the last 16.
Fourth in the South American qualifiers, Paraguay's aim will be to survive the group stage, something they accomplished in each of the last two finals. In qualifying, Anibal Ruiz's team managed a 1-0 victory at home to Argentina, having earlier held the two-time FIFA World Cup winners to a 0-0 draw in Buenos Aires. So they will not be lacking confidence.
Trinidad and Tobago may lack experience but in Leo Beenhakker they have a coach who is no stranger to the highest level of competition, guiding the Netherlands into the second round in Italy in 1990 when they bowed out to eventual winners West Germany. Sheer enthusiasm alone is bound to make them difficult opponents.

I can tell you from this Group, England will for sure go really really far.. they are the favourite for this world cup, and I expect them in the final. so put your money on them blindly. As for the other teams, you will have a great show and nice soccer, but none of them got what it takes to go far.

Did you know?

Trinidad and Tobago have never faced England and since 1985 have only met one of the other teams in the group – Paraguay. In March 1989 the two sides locked horns in two friendly fixtures, which ended 2-2 and 1-1.

WORLD CUP GERMANY 2006

2006-01-25T15:30:00.000-05:00

Hi Guys and gals...

sorry for not writting for a while.. But hey.. the job, the family and all the other fun stuff keeping me busy... . I wish to retire next week, but haven't hit the jackpot yet. Well that’s not the topic of this article. It’s rather the coverage of the world cup 2006.

I will analyze each and every team that qualified to the world cup and what they could achieve.

Here is first of all a world map with all the qualified teams that might be interesting for some:

We will start With Group A:

The fates were clearly smiling on the hosts of the 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany™. Pitted against Costa Rica, Poland and Ecuador, the Mannschaft face three capable teams, but they are surely well equipped to negotiate their way through to the knock-out stages. The key, of course, will be to not underestimate their opponents, a lesson both France and Argentina learned to their cost in 2002. For their part, the Poles and Ecuadorians will be confident after impressive qualification campaigns, while Costa Rica already showed themselves capable of causing an upset in 1990.
FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking
Germany 16th
Costa Rica 21st
Poland 23rd
Ecuador 37th

I can tell you with this group we will see nothing but great matches, it's a perfect combination of soccer skill coming from the Latin Americans and technical thinking from the Europeans. If you ask me today who will make it to the second round, I will tell you that for sure Germany and Poland. The Germans will achieve second round due to them paying at home; as for the poles, will they are in my opinion the heavy weights in this group with the solid World cup qualification results. It's a team that showed great deal of commitment, perseverance and skill. Sorry to put the Latins as the group losers, but I believe that they got the skill, but lack the experience and technical thinking aspect of the game.

Once again, it will be a great group to watch, but if you wanna bet money, put it on Germany and Poland.

Next week, I will give more of a thorough analysis of Group B, which it's composed of England, Trinidad and Tobago, Paraguay and Sweden.

THE FACE OF BRAZIL

2006-01-13T23:40:00.000-05:00

Hello boys and girls....

About two weeks ago I got in touch with a very old friend to me from Brazil,whom I haven't seen in about eight or nine years. Cool huh?. Well it was definitely great to talk to her and get to know what she is doing with her life.

Francis Lives in the state of Parana in Brazil, in a little town called União de Vitória, where she had an export import company, exporting lumber and other material world wide which her state specializes in. Unfortunately due to globalization and the cheap Chinese market factor, her state, city and in fact business lost a lot of lumber market to the Chinese. In her city alone eight hundred jobs were lost and many more to come.

As sad as this may sound, in the light of those sad events, and economic struggle, Francis has started a great initiative; a project called the face of Brazil. She thought a lot of what she could do to help and change the reality in place, and THE FACE of BRAZIL was the answer.

THE FACE OF BRAZIL is a project where crafty men and women who have lost their jobs are working with their hands to produce different art work that represents Brazil and that region of the country.

Francis wish is currently trying to build outside markets and promote these wonderful work of art to the world, in the hopes that to open a new market of handcraft art to their beloved city.

I can tell you that I am proud of her, I mean she have started this project in 2005 and she was the only one in this initiative and today she is part of an organisation of a hundred people trying to help their community.

Based on the manpower of a local plastic artist, her organisation is creating weekly art workshops to produce prints for t-shirts, yokes; dresses, Brazilian subjects painted the hand on silk satin and pure silk. Also they are building partnership with the local University to develop different art courses to help the people produce a better product; different visual art courses will take place in 2006 and hopefully will bring great rewards to the project.
So take the time to look at the different pictures posted in this article and hi…. Contact me or contact my Friend Francis@: francis@pacbrasil.com.br. I am sure she will appreciate it.

Well.. Until next time kids.. god bless you.

HOME Business all the way!

2006-01-11T16:14:00.000-05:00

Hi guys and girls,

Home business is the one thing that always comes and goes and it’s a great indication of what economy we are living in today… at least here in North America. Will , I can tell you that over the last few month I have been looking at the easiest most intelligent way to make money and requires too little or no effort at all, but sadly there isn’t.. well there is but it’s illegal . however, there is tones and tones of other ways and means to achieve great incomes from home, but it takes a certain efforts from you.

In my book, the easiest and most interesting programs, that requires nothing but a computer access to the net are “affiliate programs”. If you look around my page, you will see that I got different banners with different companies on the net. So what are those?... They are simply web promotional tools that large sites, e-businesses and corporations uses to promote their products on small sites in the hopes of driving customers to them. Next… after their banner or ad is placed on a site (that require a registration with the affiliate program to get their banner code that is assigned to you), you can start earning $$$$ just by referring your site traffic to their sites…… Cool.. right? .. it is… but takes a lot more work then that.. you are hoping that when someone lands on your site, take the courage and either CLICK on the Google ads ( which it earns you $$$ just when someone clicks on it.. so GO ahead a click around on my site pleeeeeeeeeeease).. or if CLICK on one of the different banners and then make a purchase or a sign-up or basically do business with the site in question, THEN you get your cut of the deal.

See… this requires a lot of promoting, however you can start putting those affiliate programs on a blog like this one ( which is free) , then go for a site if you get more professional.

A solid site that could help you start up with affiliate programs is: www.associateprograms.com, there all aspects of affiliate programs are covered and it really tells you step by step what you need to do to have those programs.

Feel free to drop me a line or two, and I will be more then happy to help you set up your blog with affiliates. Cool stuff?

Until next time… I love you all!

2005-12-29T17:39:00.000-05:00

Hey everyone,

If you are like me and love to eat and try new awesome things, then go ahead and buy yourself a shish taouk sandwich.

Taouk means chicken in Turkish, and shish means a stick, so if you want the perfect translation for shish taouk, you got it… Chicken Stick.

It’s huge argument between different middle eastern countries on who is the master of shish taouk, however you usually find it in Lebanese restaurants all across the world; and you know what? It’s awesome. Usually you could have a shish taouk platter or a sandwich, I definitely recommend it in the Sandwich option.. you can taste the meet more and enjoy and toppings… hmmmmmm yup yup…

You know… it’s hard to cook this food at home, but if you are a talented cook and which to experiment at home, here is how you can do your Shish Taouk A LA YOU:

Ingredients:
1 1/2 lb Boneless chicken breast
4 Cloves of garlic
1 Lemon ; juice of
2 tb Olive oil
1/2 ts Ground allspice
1 ts Salt
Instructions:Peel and crush the garlic with the salt. Stir it into the lemon juice andthe olive oil. Cut the chicken breasts into walnut-sized pieces, sprinkleover the allspice and pour over the garlic and lemon marinade. Turn thechicken in this for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours for maximumpenetration.Thread it onto skewers, packing reasonably closely together, 4 or 5 piecesto a skewer, and grill on a hot pre-heated grill for 2-3 minutes a side,turning 3 times. The chicken should be crisp and dark brown and stillsucculent on the inside.

Awesome, NO?... oooh and a piece of advice.. When you finish eating you better have gum factory close to you because you will smell so garlicky.

Middle Eastern food is my favourite, and I can tell you that if you try to learn some recipes and cook it for a special one, well you got this person forever.

Well.. that’s it.. for today… I hope you like my recipe.. and buy yourself and me a sandwich please…

Cheers.
