2002 world cup will be held in Japan and Korea from may 31th. Are you excited? Of course, I'm very very... excited!!! But, I don't have a ticket. One year ago, I wanted to buy a ticket. You know, a lot of people want tickets. So, it's difficult for us to get it... I gave up getting it. Maybe I will just watch world cup on TV. I wish someone gave me a ticket...
I predict which team will win in 2002 world cup. I hope Italy will win... Actually, I follow Japan. But, it's difficult to get a champion. So if you have an oppotunity to see it, please follow Italy. Italian soccer will make you excited and fun. Check it out!!!
About Group H, Japanese soccer team will play against Belguim, Russia and Tunisia. Almost all of people think Group H doesn't have strong teams, so Japan will go to final round easily. I think Group H is easier than others. But not easy. Because the other teams' FIFA lank are higher than Japanese. But Japan have to go to final round... Let's cheer Janan ... and Italy!!!
