Rei Posted May 28, 2005 Report Share Posted May 28, 2005 I've discovered that the european teams have never won the trophy out of Europe.. this shouldn't be a simple conicidence.. what about a final between England and Italy.. we've had an anticipation recently in Istanbul..

Guardian Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 One thing is almost a guarantee here: since Germany is hosting in 2006, it is surely going to be in the second round of the tournament. From what I read, the host nation has always gone past the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baron-pierreIV Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 Now... write from down to up, next to the years of the first list, the champions from 1982 to 2002. Here is the coincidence.*Uruguay - 1930 *Italy - 1934 *Italy - 1938 *Uruguay - 1950 *Germany - 1954 *Brazil - 1958 -- 2006 Brazil? *Brazil - 1962 -- 2002 Brazil *England - 1966 -- 1998 France *Brazil - 1970 -- 1994 Brazil *Germany - 1974 -- 1990 Germany *Argentina - 1978 -- 1986 Argentina *Italy - 1982 -- 1982 - Italy KRATK, verrry interrresting. I like that. Also, 13 nations participated in the 1st World Cup in Uruguay in 1930, but 14 nations played in Athens (1896). Were it not for that one dumb Australian clerk, this other amazing historical coincidence would've stood up as such in history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westfale Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 JAPAN is the first team, that has qualified for the World Cup in Germany. Congratulations. I hope, that we will host the tournament as good as the Japanese. We have to give something back to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 It almost looks like, for the CONCACAF region, that the USA and Mexico will go to Germany. It is only the matter of which third national team from the region will go as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baron-pierreIV Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 God, that IS the most God-awful poster. I mean not only is it in the gaudy, ersatz Maoist-Commie-Chinese style but it's some pedophile's dream in the most garish colors and images imaginable!! Quite hideous!

LuigiVercotti Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Um...not exactly hochkunst...the first poster has a semi-70s Op art feel, the second last one is a pretty neat homage of Indonesian/Thai/Japanese art, but the rest are very ordinary. And the Chinese kid poster is a freaking disaster! Looks like the country that gave us Nolde, Dix, Ernst etc etc can only find fourth rate design graduates to produce art for the 2006 WMs. Schade... At least the tournament should be well organised and patronised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
