Group G ---The toughest group of world cup 2010.
Group G consists of this four countries: Brazil, North Korea, Ivory Coast, and Portugal.
Brazil believes in only one statement and that is "all or nothing" for Brazil in the World Cup 2010 in South Africa. Dunga has laid down a challenge to his Brazil team that all 23 men will be expected to accomplish come the 11th of July. Brazil can easily secure the first place in the knock out round.
Brazil will be expected to win their opening game against Korea DPR, which would be much easier for brazil.If Dunga's men happen to be a little careless in their opening game they may not be punished as servilely against the Korean's .
Korea DPR have faced just only one World Cup tournament back in 1966.The Korean side consists of 22 players who play their club football in either North Korea or Japan.The main goal scoring threat will come from Hong Yong-Jo, who is the only member of the squad who plays elsewhere.Yong-Jo is the team captain and plays his club football in Russia for FC Rostov.
The second match of Brazil would be against Ivory coast.Ivory Coast qualified for the World Cup unbeaten from the Confederation of African Football group stages.Ivory Coast's main attacking threat will come from this year's Premier League top goalscorer, Didier Drogba. As good as Drogba is he can not carry the Ivory Coast past such quality opponents like Brazil.Drogba is the biggest weapon.
The final match of Brazil is against Portugal.Portugal have an array of attacking talent. Ronaldo, Danny, Simao, and Nani all have blistering pace and love running at the back four.
But it is the rest of the Portugal team that get overlooked as the teams weakness.The defense consists of many aging and average players such as Paula Ferreira, Miguel and Duda. The two best centre-half Portugal have are Pepe and Ricardo Carvalho, who have both seen better days.
Portugal have a very inexperienced group of goalkeepers, with all four goalies sharing just 14 international caps.But the biggest weapon of Portugal is Christiano Ronaldo.
So, it seems that Group G is gonna be the toughest group of world cup 2010.But we ca predict that 1st position would be hold by Brazil and second position holder would be Portugal.
