Argentina may have the best team and fans at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.  The players in blue and white pinstripes peppered the South Korean goal in a 4-1 win on Thursday at Soccer City Stadium in Johannesburg.  Fans of the “Maradonians,” the nickname given to the squad coached by football legend Diego Maradona, have been in full force at every setting during this tournament and the constant celebration of their brilliant team continued all throughout Thursday’s game.

The U.S. proved to the world that they have both passion and talent for football in the US vs England draw during group play. Two different worlds clashed in remote Rustenburg Saturday night – one with centuries of excellent football history and the other with barely a notable player to name. Of course, the history between the two countries is etched to the minds of every American – Nathaniel Greene vs. Charles Cornwallis, King George vs. Thomas Jefferson, Franklin Delano Roosevelt vs. Winston Churchill; Monarchy vs. Democracy, Declaration of Independence vs. the Magna Carta; Legendary football players vs. Landon Donovan? For the English, they remember something that most Americans are clueless about, a 1951 crushing upset loss at the hands of the Americans at Wembley Stadium. Revenge was wanted by both sides.
