A lot of action regarding the final stages of the World Cup qualifiers took place this week. Cameroon qualified thanks to Etoó. Teams like France and Portugal are almost in as they managed to win their first leg games. However, Portugal proved lucky as they managed to dodge some major strikers by the Bosian team who hit the post and managed great individual plays that simply did not go in. Russia also won but Slovenia managed to score away, this will seem important as they take on the home match next week. Uruguay also won away against Costa Rica, and is a likely candidate to play the cup. Free bet offers had hefty odds on Ireland to qualify, but it is looking difficult for the green team to manage a win away. Ukraine will have its work cut out for them if they want to qualify as all is left to see next match against the Greeks given a scoreless first match leg.

In friendly matches, Vicente del Bosque managed a win against Argentina. However, two penalties were given, one to each team. Some critics praise the coach as the team has managed to play that offensive style of play similar to what Barcelona is currently performing on the pitch, but others like Capello who lost against Brasil state that Brasil is a much more stronger team than Spain and should be considered favorites to win the cup. Much of the press does nothing but praise the Spaniards though, and Vicente states that they must remain cautious. The team has not lost for numerous matches and the players are quite confident. England played with a lot of the B team, but showcased poor offensive football. Italy Holland proved to be a boring exhibition match as there was not much offensive action. Holland had numerous players injured; perhaps this is why the team did not shine on the pitch offensively speaking.
