Keisuke Honda is awesome. Until January he played for VVV Venlo, a team that only got promoted to the highest Dutch division last September. Then in the January transfer window he was sold to CSKA Moscow for around 8 million euros, which is more than VVV Venlo's entire annual estimate/budget! So much for the good old saying that "no player is bigger than the club".

One semi-finalist will come out of Uruguay, South Korea, USA and Ghana. Whoever it will be seems likely to become this tournament's surprise team.

It's not going to be Europe's World Cup. There will only be beteen 4 and 7
European times at the last 16, compared to 10 at the previous world cup. If Chile qualifies, there will be 7 teams from the Americas! (theoretically speaking, even Honduras could still make it 8)
