Re: World Cup for Beginners
Okay I was just joking. =)
I mean I know how to play the game...I just wanna know how this whold World Cup Series goes. What round are we in?
Re: World Cup for Beginners
32 teams participate, spread over 8 groups of 4.
In each group, each team plays each other. The first two of each group progress to the knock-out stage
1st team Group A vs 2nd team Group B
etc etc towards the final
In these knock-out rounds, if there is a draw penalties will follow.
We are currently in the first round (group matches).
Re: World Cup for Beginners
Is there like one match per day?
Re: World Cup for Beginners
^in the first round: 3 matches per day :D
afterwards: 2 matches and 1 match per day
Re: World Cup for Beginners
As an American, I think this whole World Cup thing is overrated.
We Americans don't care about soccer (or as the rest of the wrongly calls it football), even if our team is ranked #5 in the world.
I tried watching some of the matches they're showing on ESPN, and I have to say, they're incredibily boring.
USA will win the world cup by the way.
Re: World Cup for Beginners
By WE if you mean Pakistan, try finding it in the FIFA rankings. 
Pakistan is around 165th on the ranking. They just missed to qualify for the WC. lol
(My signature very much applies to them.)
Re: World Cup for Beginners
Yes, seems like Pakistanis are too busy kicking each other's balls they don't have time to kick a FIFA one.
(Just joke, guys, it's just a joke).
Re: World Cup for Beginners
I think American Football is way more boring than Soccer. Plus, the FIFA World Cup is obviously going to be a big thing..it's international.
Re: World Cup for Beginners
^ its the biggest tournament on earthhhhhhhh!!!
ITs just a bunch of teams that play against each other and advance to the finals!!
Soccer is so much fun :D! even though pakistan isn’t in it! I still think Argentina will face Brazil in the finals 
Re: World Cup for Beginners
khoon ka badla khoon !!! Argentina vs Brazil !!!!! wooooooooooohoooooooo
