allez Berlin--

Yes folks,the biggest sporting extravaganza,the Fifa world cup,its 18th edition to be precise will get underway in a little less than 2 and a half hours when hosts Germany take on Costa Rica in Munich.
The quadrennial extravaganza is probably watched by many people than any other event,may be barring the Olympics.You can probably understand the impact of the beautiful game when you realise that FIFA,soccer's governing body has 205 members in comparison to the 191 members of the United Nations.
There isn't much difference between the Germans and the Costa Ricans in the rankings but Costa Rica weren't very impressive en route to Germany. I expect Germany to win this one and take some pressure of their and Jurgen Klinsmann's shoulders.
