FIFA World Cup

I am not a girl who is good at sports, but I like to watch sport games. I enjoy watching NBA, tennis games, ice-skating, and soccer. Speaking of soccer, recently, the most popular conversation among soccer fans will be the FIFA World Cup. This international competition is held every four year and has been one of the most important event on the earth since 1904. This year the World Cup is held in the Republic of South Africa in June. All soccer fans around the world are expecting the exciting competition among those best national teams and wondering which team will be the champion. Although we do not have a national team to represent Taiwan to join the tournament, some Taiwanese people are still crazy about it. My favorite team is England. It is said that soccer originated in the United Kingdom. People in Britain are crazy about soccer and they even have established a tournament in their country. England Premier League is an important event to the British just as NBA or NFL to Americans. I like to watch England Premier League and I try to tune in whenever there is a game. Unfortunately, most of the time of tournaments are so late that I could only watch replay the other day. Anyway, England team is my favorite and I will cheer for them as usual. It is a pity that Beckham was hurt and could not join the team; this year might be the last time for him to serve for his country if he did not get hurt. Though Beckham is not in the team, there are still other best soccer players chosen from British teams. It has been many years since the last time England won the first place. I really hope that they will have good performances this year.
