Germany vs Serbia for World Cup 2010: Germany will play against Serbia on 18/06 13:30 in Nelson Mandela Bay/Port Elizabeth
Is there any doubt that Germany will qualify for the World Cup 2010? The three-time world champions landed in Group 4 with 24 points. They garnered a remarkable eight win out of ten games and were never in trouble. Key to their qualification was two victories over Russia that permitted the Germans to conclude a World Cup berth with a game to spare in the qualifiers. The lone setback the team suffered came on 10 November last year when Robert Enke a goalkeeper who was expected to be on the roster of Germany’s World Cup next year as a backup, committed suicide. He was 32. Their key to qualification is efficiency.
Yes, the Germans efficient, that is the best way to describe how they went out about their games, racking up victories in the qualifiers on their way to clinching a World Cup spot. Their Star player is Michael Ballack and Miroslav Klose who scored a team-high seven goals in the qualifiers it included the game-winner against Russia in Moscow.
Their potential problem is that they could be more creative in midfield. Chelsea star Michael Ballack can carry the bulk of the playmaking duties, but other players need to provide a bit of creative work and remove some pressure off the German captain.
Not like last year, Serbia can no longer pick from a talented pool of Montenegrin players, but it did not slow them down one bit to get in the qualifiers. Serbia made an impressive win in Group 7 with 22 points that beat France they were the 1998 world champions and also finalists in 2006 to get an automatic World Cup berth. With Inter Milan’s Dejan Stankovic pulling the imaginative strings in midfield and Nemanja Vidic Manchester United that will anchor a solid back line. The Serbs made a run through the qualifiers that left France in their wake.
Their key to being qualified is team effort. They notably topped their group in front of France, 2006 World Cup runners-up thanks to the whole team effort, with the defenders also helping out in the offensive contributions and the attacking midfielders helping out the back four.
The result is a comprehensive 5-0 win against Romania last 10 October 2009 in Belgrade and concluded the first place in the group for them that forced France into the European playoffs. Their star player is Midfielder Milan Jovanovic who became the revelation of the qualifiers for Serbia that scored a team-high five goals and using his attacking instincts to assist teammates with scoring chances.
Their potential problems are the forwards, especially Nikola Zigic and Marko Pantelic who do not intimidate the guts of opposing defenders. Serbia’s two strikers have to produce more and play more scientific with their finishing in the front goal. This will be an interesting World Cup 2010 Germany vs. Serbia game to watch.

Serbia vs Ghana in World Cup 2010: Serbia will play against Ghana on 13/06 16:00 in Tshwane/Pretoria
World Cup 2010 Serbia vs. Ghana, their match will take place on 2010-06-13 20:30 where the two teams will be playing against each other for the victory of Group D, 2nd match. The match stadium will take place on Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria that is built last 2008 with a capacity of 51,000.
When you compare Ghana to Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Chile, Cameroon or Paraguay in a pool where all the teams with the exception of Algeria have almost the same quality and chances of altering the tournament. But it is very well known why it is hard to battle Ghana. First, everyone knows how good they played in 2006 and how far they were able to go if they have not drawn Brazil in Round of 16 which they also played very well. Second is the admiration towards Michael Essien, who is at the moment considered to be one of the world’s very best midfielders. Defending, making extraordinary goals, passing, he is an all around player.
The rest of Ghana’s players are not so strong compared to Ivory Coast or Cameroon, but the team has talent and. The final reason is Milovan Rajevac, the coach of Ghana. The Black Stars have a well-known tradition of bringing Serbian coaches to their down fall. In 2006, they were coached by Ratomir Dujković, who is in their country already a living legend and the man that delivered their first World Cup in history. At the moment, he is leading the Serbian U21 team and now the Ghaneans have chosen Milovan Rajevac to lead them to their second title of the World Cup is his fellow countryman. Now, the fact that he is Serbian that has a great knowledge of Serbian football is now the ace in the sleeve of Ghana.
So, going against Ghana is the first one will very well determine the outcome of both teams. For the same reason, Ghana must be faced with seriously and without a shade of arrogance. Preparation should be made properly and going into this game with a knowledge that they are capable of defeating a team that is definitely not weak like some who is not well versed with football. If Servia will play the way that it should then they can play in the qualifiers, this is everybody’s ball game and nobody should think otherwise. They are both balanced groups which can finish with 9 or 0 points easily and it all depends on the players. Watch the World Cup 2010 Serbia vs. Ghana any you will see just how good these teams are.
