Football Fever on the rise..Would the injuries spoil the party?

"Oh! Why is tomorrow? Why not today?" appears every time in our mind, especially while waiting for pleasure. It is always a heart beating feelings when it is a matter of counting down.


With the 2010 FIFA World Cup about to take-off, the excitement level is really high.
ESPN Star Sports is all set for a higher TRP for the thrilling encounters. People are changing their travelling schedules, re-considering their plans so that nothing comes between them and soccer.


Like all football lovers, I have been waiting for these matches with bated breath, keeping my fingers crossed for my favourites.


Off-late, many star players have been either knocked out of the tournament or been considered doubtful owing to injuries. The question arises that would this be a big blow to the grand showdown?
The sudden attack of injury demon to some of the favourite teams has hurt the enthusiasm with which the fans have been anticipating one of the world's biggest sporting events. Likes of Michael Ballack, Rio Ferdinand and Nani would be missing the entire tournament, while the skills of Andrea Pirlo, Didier Drogba and Arjen Robben would be unavailable at least for the initial games.

But nevertheless, the football fanatics are all geared up to witness the great battle which has been widely talked of - Christiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi. The predictions for who would emerge as the Champions has already become a war. The football fraternity (including me) is planning the big nights already. Are you one of them?
