World Cup 2010: Slovenia will play against USA on 18/06 16:00 in Johannesburg – JEP

World Cup 2010 Slovenia vs. USA is a match to see. Team Slovenia at World Cup 2010 was not easy. They reached the World Cup by an upset victory over Russia during the play-offs. It will be very difficult for them to do the same shock they did in South Africa. Slovenia was able to qualify for World Cup 2010 because they became the European play-off winners. Their Coach is Matjaž Kek. He is a Slovenian with age 48. He was appointed last January 2007. Kek managed to work his way up the Slovenian ladder by means of coaching the country’s Under-15 and Under-16 teams before stepping up to the senior side. The play-offs only shock came in the game of Slovenia with Kek acknowledged that his country had materialized a dream by beating Russia for a place at the World Cup finals after Novakovic’s five goals sealed them for second place in their group.

Zlatko Dedic scored the only goal of the game that put Slovenia through all the away with the expense of Guus Hiddink’s side, who has sent two men off in a bad-tempered and emotional match. But Kek has no doubt in his mind that his side executes better on the night and they deserved to go through. He said that it was a significant match for them. And he wanted to thank every one of his players. The entire country was them and all of them could feel their support. They deserved the victory. It is a great honor to be part of the best teams in the world. Slovenia has made a dream come true.

It is really a dream since when one think that they played their first match only in 1992 after the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia made a split in 1991. Before it happened, players of Slovenia played for the Yugoslavia national football team. Slovenia also surprised the nation when they qualified for the Euro 2000, when they won against Ukraine in a playoff. They were able to turn some heads during the match, played a draw against Yugoslavia and Norway, and lost only to Spain 2–1. Two years later Slovenia achieved another major success, qualifying for the 2002 World Cup, this time they were able to defeat Romania in a playoff. They had six wins and six draws in the qualifying round. But, they did not make good in the finals, going home without a score. Despite not being able to qualify for the 2006 World Cup, they managed to beat Italy on their way to winning the tournament with a shock 1–0 victory on their home turf. The World Cup 2010 Slovenia vs. USA match is a treat to see.

FIFA World Cup 2010

Venue: Mangaung/Bloemfontein

World Cup 2010 Japan vs. Cameroon with Japan in prospective. Japan just happened to be one of the toughest team in the Asian football region, Japan, who won three of the last five championships of the AFC Asian Cup, have very high expectation for winning the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™. This will be their fourth appearance at the global competition.

First on the list is an upgrade on the unsatisfactory performance at Germany 2006, when the Samurai Blue won 3-1 in their first hurdle and a reverse happened versus Australia, Croatia got a draw 0-0 and a loss with Brazil 4-1. Japan will face their first finals without Hidetoshi Nakata their iconic midfielder. The former Roma featured in each of the national games at France 1998, Korea/Japan 2002 and Germany 2006 before deciding to leave the game and retire, hang up his boots after the event at age 29.

Going to the road leading to South Africa, after comfortably reaching the final round of the Asian Zone qualifying for South Africa 2010, Japan got four, drew three and lost just one on their eight matches on Group 1. A 2-1 turn around in Australia and a heart breaking draw 0-0 at home versus the same teams were the draw back of the final phase, in spite of the fact that coach Takeshi Okada’s team was able to finish well clear of Qatar, Bahrain, and Uzbekistan in the five-team section.

The Japan star players are Shunsuke Nakamura a former Celtic playmaker, who in the summer 2009 made the swap from Glasgow to La Liga with Espanyol. Another European-based performer is Keisuke Honda young midfielder at Eredivisie outfit VVV Venlo and similar to Nakamura a gifted left-footer. Their leading from the back is Captain Yuji Nakazawa a 31-year-old defensive rock and who has over 90 senior caps to his credit is Japan’s entire time third-most capped player.

Their coach is National supremo Okada. He is far and wide taken into account to be one of the finest Japanese strategists of all time. He was at the driver seat during the Samurai Blue’s first appearance in FIFA World Cup at France 1998; he was able to successfully negotiate a complicated play-off meeting with Iran, and after that enjoyed spells at club level with Yokohama F Marinos and Consadole Sapporo.

The 53-year-old past international defender’s stint in Sapporo included stepping up the team from the second division into top flight. And the tactician led Marinos to successive J.League titles in 2003 and 2004. Having stepped away from his role in Yokohama in 2006, he took the load over the reins of the national team for a second time after a year when a stroke was suffered by Ivica Osim previous incumbent. Don’t fail to watch the World Cup 2010 Japan vs. Cameroon match.

FIFA World Cup 2010

Venue: Rustenburg

The big match of Group C gets underway Saturday when England take on USA in a battle between the teams widely expected to finish 1-2 in the Group.

USA's Landon Donovan has proven himself this yearThe England squad is packed with top class players, in particular Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney, and midfielders Frank Lampard of Chelsea and Steven Gerrard of Liverpool.

But although the USA lacks the man for man quality of the English, they are not without players of skill and creativity themselves.

Midfielder Landon Donovan of the LA Galaxy is undoubtedly the most high profile of the Americans. His successful10 game loan to English Premier League club Everton earlier this year surely proved even to his most zealous detractors that he can compete among the top teams and players.

Striker Clint Dempsey, who plies his trade in England with Fulham, is another American whose talents are obvious. And goalkeeper Tim Howard has proven time and again that he is a fine stopper for his English club Everton.

Central defense: England and USA have problems in common

England central defender and captain Rio Ferdinand injured his knee on the training ground last week in what seemed an innocuous challenge. He was soon ruled out of the World Cup as a result and England boss Fabio Capello called up Tottenham’s Michael Dawson to replace him.

Despite a good season at the club level, Dawson lacks international experience and so the primary responsibilities for central defense will fall to Tottenham’s talented Ledley King. Though a fine defender, King is fragile, with chronic knee problems.

Central defense is problematic for the USA too. Oguchi Onyewu of AC Milan is coming off a knee problem that has kept him out of the game since late last year. Only in recent weeks has “Gooch” started playing again and his lack of match fitness was initially clear. Still, he claims now to ready for 90 minutes against England. Whether his knee is ready only time will tell.

He’s a big lad, Onyewu, and his readiness for a physical battle may be tested if he has to face the likes of stout England striker Emile Heskey whose physical presence can be imposing. But Onyewu will likely find himself at a greater disadvantage against the pace of England’s small men, Rooney, Jermain Defoe, Aaron Lennon or Shaun Wright-Phillips.
