Who are you rooting for in this year’s World Cup? The international tournament features 32 national teams and is scheduled to take place in Brazil from 12 June to 13 July 2014. It will be the second time that Brazil has hosted the competition, the previous being in 1950.
Spain is the defending champion, having defeated the Netherlands 1–0 in the 2010 World Cup final to win its first World title. The previous four World Cups staged in South America were all won by South American teams. [source]

Stage 1: Utter disbelief
Stage 2: Celebrate
A harbinger appears
The celebrations continue
Another sign…
Knighthoods abound
Scotland muses
Wales too
France concedes
Hodgson is literally money
Players are deified
New traditions are founded
The sun is shining
But clouds of danger loom
And reality sets in
Nothing was the same
