Group Preview
If you look at the Dutch side over the years they are the best team in the world who have never won a World Cup. As other final tournaments they have played before, the Netherlands go into this World Cup as one of the favourites. They are confident in winning this group after a flawless qualifier campaign.
Cameroon is the most succesfull African team in the World Cup’s history. They can really be a threat for the other teams in group E because they have in Samuel Eto’o one of the best pure striker the world. The African team has a lot of other talents as well, but Samuel Eto’o is the man who can absolutely lead Cameroon to the promise land of the next stage.
Denmark has an experienced team under Martin Olsen and they promise a lot after winning the qualification group over Portugal. The Danes can benefit Martin Olsen’s international experience which took the national helm in 2000, or the inspiration of players such as Daniel Agger, Denis Rommedahl or the veteran Jon Dahl Tomasson. We will see if they are strong enough to qualify for the next stage.
Japan has a squad where we recognize some talents like Nakamura aged 31 who currently plays for Yokohama Marinos or Makoto Hasebe player of VFL Wolfsburg, in the strong Bundesliga. They are one of the strongest squad in Asian football, winners of three of the last five editions of the AFC Asian Cup, but in my opinion, the asian squad isi not strong enough to repeat the 2002 performance where they reached the second stage.
