Confederations Cup News

FIFA at Online Football News - Free International and European Soccer Betting Tips, Picks and Odds; 2006 FIFA World Cup news and rumors; FREE World Cup betting tips, picks and oddsOne of the most recent introductions to FIFA’s range of competitions for national teams is the FIFA Confederations Cup. As the name implies, the tournament principally features the winning teams from each of the six continental confederations, with the defending World Champions, the host country or another team from the host continent making up the eight participants.

Super Bowl, Final Four, World Series, Olympics, Academy Awards, and presidential elections are all major events and draw millions of viewers in the USA, but rarely do these events mean that roads will be deserted, that schools and business will be closed, or that a favorable result will become a spontaneous day of jubilation for the entire country.

Why doesn't the US have any sporting event that reaches the masses on such a scale? It is simple - the US is so good at so many sports. When you think of sports in Canada, you think of hockey. When you think of sports in England you think World Cup soccer. But when you think of sports in the US: football, baseball and basketball leap to mind. But in countries like England, soccer particularly FIFA World Cup, is the only major sport where they can compete on a World level. The collective national pride rests on the shoulders of every player who takes to the pitch representing their nation. Nobody wants to miss the euphoria that comes when their team, and thus their country, pulls together and wins.
