June 15, 2010 - Come any World cup, they are the favorites! No matter, whether they have won the previous edition. Brazil will always start as the favorite team to lift the Football World Cup. They are the only-ever team to represent in any World cup. Brazil make their debut at 2010 World cup against North Korea at Ellis Park Stadium, Johannesburg. They are placed in probably the most competitive group in the competition, Group G.
Having clinched the title five times already, the most by any nation, they look to stamp their authority once again and make that World cup wins count to six. Online betting sites have already been busy, and with Brazil kicking off their first match of the tournament tomorrow, site traffic is expected to overflow. Football lovers across the globe bet their money on Brazil to lift the trophy. The site owners can be very much pleased about this.
On the other side, North Korea can never be under-estimated. They are famous for creating upsets in the World cup matches. They beat Italy 1-0 and knocked them out of the tournament in 1966. Another famous match was where Portugal, under Eusebio, narrowly escaped a quarter-final shock. They had to come back from a 3-0 deficit to overcome this East Asian nation. So the North Koreans cannot be taken for granted too. North Korea‘s coach, An Yong-hak, reported in the media that his side may not be that great to win this tournament but cannot be ignored completely too. Seems that they have arrived in South Africa with the best possible combination they could ever have and hopefully they have the force to make forward strides in the tournament.
Online World cup betting is on the rise every day and with Brazil opening their account tomorrow, it can only get better and not worse. A number of promotional items have been included in various betting sites. Users are presented with a number of gift hampers, coupons, promotion code, and vouchers and so on. If you are a football maniac, visit a number of online betting sites to improve your chances of betting and winning the prize money.
There are a few big individual names to look out in the Brazilian team. Likes of Kaka, Luis Fabiano and others can win matches on their own. It will be an interesting battle to look out for if they can overcome Kim Jong-Hun side‘s defense. Not to forget, Brazil‘s shocking loss at the 2010 World cup qualifiers to Paraguay at 1-0, may be a wake up call at the right time. Also some of their players are coming off from their worst season and if they couldn‘t deliver the goods at the right time, then we may look for a twist in this World cup tale. With stronger oppositions like Portugal and Ivory Coast, Brazil would like to begin things well tomorrow and look to progress through the next stages of the tournament.
On the whole to sum it up, the North Koreans will have an uphill task to climb, against the ever favorite Brazilians!
