FIFA WORLD CUP

The world cup in 2010 finished. I was so interesting for one month. I like soccer and I often watched soccer game on TV. Japan took part in world cup. Japan matched Cameroon in June 14th, Holland, Denmark and Paraguay. I watched all game on live broadcast. First of all, Japan matched Cameroon and Japan won. Keisuke Honda shot at goal. Japan recorded their first world cup win on foreign soil. When I watched it, I was so excited. Secondly, Japan matched Holland. Holland is powerful team and has a lot of good players. Sneijder shot on goal and Holland won. Japan lost, but I thought that the game was a good game. Thirdly, Japan matched Denmark in June 24th. The game was important game. If Japan won or draw, Japan advenced to the final leagues. The game started on 3:30 a.m., so I was got up early. Keisuke Honda, Yasuhito Endo and Shinji Okazaki shot on goal this game. And Japan won!!! Japan made history by reaching the Round of 16 for the first time on foreign soil, eliminating Denmark in the process with a 3-1 win in Rustenburg. I was so happy, and that is great! I should they were beyond all great praise. Finally, the final leagues started. Japan matched Paraguay in June 29th. A lot of Japanese watched the game, and my family watched it. Japan lost after all. Paraguay squeezed through to the quarter-finals of the FIFA World Cup for the first time in their history as Yuichi Komano's penalty miss sent Japan crashing out of the tournament. I was so sad, but Japan was so good.

Japan team is a good team. Keisuke Honda is popular especially. My favorite soccer layer is Yasuhito Endo. He is one of the greatest Japanese players of all time. Also I like Makoto Hasebe. A lot of people said that Takeshi Okada was not a good coach before world cup. But he was estimated by many people and all of the world.


Also, Lionel Messi is famous. I like him. He is a good player all over the world. And I supposed Spain. I like Andres Iniesta and XAVI. The final game played in July 11th. Spain and Holland matched. Both team took part in the final game for the first time. Iniest's goal was a game point! Then, Spain won the world cup for the first time! It made me so happy. The world cup finished. I am impatient to held next world cup. The world cup will held in Brazil in 2014. I want to watch soccer game the local spot. I like soccer very very much!! Soccer is my favorite sports. I would like to go to the soccer stadium, and see Yasuhito Endo.
