Well, on the theme - most notoriously, the stadiums of the world:
1. Japan, the stadium in Osaka. Was abandoned and turned into a residential area.
February. Venezuela, Caracas, stadium "Cocodrilos"
3. Portugal, Braga. One of the most expensive and mysterious stadiums in Portugal, is considered one of the most original and beautiful stadiums in the world.
4. Croatia, the stadium Gospin Dolac.
5. Faroe Islands. Their national football team plays at the stadium is located just a step away from the sea. Special man collects the balls that fall into the sea during the match.

Sounds silly dudok remind multiplier buzzing swarm of bees and annoying even on TV. Well, actually all modestly in Africa. The last championship was the more sophisticated ones. And, in my opinion, many local viewers do not understand the meaning of the game

While on the Preview. stage, many games are not impressive.
But interesting to observe National especially football.
 The Japanese are very good work in protecting the body. So sheltered housing ball from Cameroonians that they could not do anything in attack. Aikido and karate instead of hockey and the "cans" effect.
A Japanese goalkeeper safer the ball was hit.

Australians and shape (uniform), and resembled the
rugby. On defense, lining up not by a two-line (defense - midfield), and in one. I once counted in the same defensive line 8 (well 7) people. And the line was, as on a rope. And they ran not from potsentsialnogo ofsaydera and him.
They probably do not Team ukompl of the most successful rugby players!

Unfortunately, the tightening in the field of refereeing put an end to one of the most fun traditions of big tournaments. Italians will no longer show the "pinch" to the judges. It is a pity as I liked those moments!

Well, so full oftopom - in the absence of Nashi have to rejoice in the success of some of "our". Keisuke Honda - good. Red and blue - the most powerful!

Mosquito swarm of squealing so, awful sound. Boring soundtrack coupled with hopeless longing matches in style slovakia-New Zealand - so this World Cup and will be remembered, probably. Promotion of popularization, but pull up your ears "to the tournament by North Korea and New Zealand - not an option. A couple more of these championships, and this tournament is risking to become a locally interesting only for the participating countries. All imho.

On vuvuzelah ...

blogger Daily Telegraph says Paul Kelso, in England belong to the South African national pastime - vuvuzelam.

"Viewers are not delighted with the bees humming, has already become a kind of soundtrack for the 2010 World Cup. BBC and ITV flooded with complaints, and people are already hard to worry about the fact that 25 thousand English fans will return from South Africa with these evil fruit fife and will transfer the infection to the home stadiums.

But we are not alone - the cacophony vuvuzel moans the whole world. According to colleagues at the Associated Press, from around the world come to them thousands of indignant e-mails, and on Monday, FIFA has already addressed this issue at the morning briefing. But the representative of the organizing committee of the championship Rich Mihondo said vuvuzely may prohibit only if they are to be used as weapons, and urged the world to enjoy the unique sounds of African Football ». /terrikon.dn.ua
