Gimme some Goals baby!!!!!

Every four years, mankind witnesses a phenomenon that can surpass none other. The unity of hearts towards one passion, one game, one cup. The most beautiful game in the world. Football to the world, soccer for the disinterested Americanos.
Never has a sport stirred up so much emotions, generating interest both financially and emotionally, bringing people together from all over the world, arm in arm, to one arena, to witness a sporting event that would draw billions, in both people and dollars.
From the huts of Africa, to the condos in France, to the slums of India and the ghettos of Latin America, football is on everyone’s lips. People throw away their worries of the world, and focus on the game, talking about their teams all day, and immersing themselves in the midst of the action with their sheer love for the game.
Technology, and multiple camera angles allow the home viewer to experience a greater depth of realism in their couch, allowing replays to fuel their debates. Heated discussions occur over the replay, and feelings run high.
Just when we thought that testosterone would rule the earth for 30 days, we are brought to a very different reality. Women have equal interest in the most beautiful game on earth, and they too, have their piece of the cake.
It is so heartening to see a team from Africa play with a team from Europe, with refereeing handled by Asians. Added to the color are glimpses of yellow and red to add to the action.
From the starting whistle to the final, our hearts start racing, tension building up with every second. The suspense, thrills and tension held by the 90-minute game, can never be surpassed by any movie produced by man. The intense feeling that creeps up within us, as we watch the match live, is one that can only be experienced and not put in words.
The skills displayed, passing of the ball, exquisite dribbling and handling of the ball by world class players, the turns and curves of flight, all adds up to increased heartbeats and intense emotions, that culminates in an ultra-orgasmic roar of victory and joy, when the ball finally finds its way to the back of the net. Never has anything aroused so much emotion and passion in men and women around the world. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that it is the ultimate tool of unity for mankind.
The sheer pleasure derived from watching 90 minutes of pure football, is what one can witness. With players playing to bring glory to their country, patriotism is always at an all time high during this period among players and supporters. A high sense of pride prevails, and brings about strong nationalism exhibited by painted bodies and colorful clothes . Players know that lifting the world cup can be an once-in-a-lifetime glory, which can never be overshadowed by any other award in this world. Such is the respect commanded by the cup of life.
I can go on and on talking about football, and my passion for it. However, I have just stated facts above about the world cup. I want to extend this article in to something else, but that would be in Part 2. However, anyways, all I would want now is to lose myself in football, pure football. Watching the superstars do their stuff on the field, GIMME SOME GOALS BABY!!!!!
