  • FIFA World Cup South Africa 2010 FIFA Wêreldbekertoernooi Suid-Afrika 2010 2010 FIFA World Cup official logo Tournament details Host country South Africa Dates 11 June – 11 July (31 days) Teams 32 (from 6 confederations) Venue(s) 10 (in 9 host cities)the 2010 FIFA World Cup was the 19th FIFA World Cup, the world championship for men's National association football teams. in 2004 FIFA elected South Africa over Egypt and Morocco to became the 1st african nation to host the Finals. In the final, Spain, the European champions, defeated third-time finalists the Netherlands 1–0 after overtime, with Andrés Iniesta's goal in the 116th minute giving Spain their first world title, becoming the eighth nation to win the tournament, and the first European nation to win the tournament outside its home
  • The matches were played in ten stadiums in nine host cities around the country, with the final played at the Soccer City stadium in South Africa's largest city, Johannesburg. Thirty-two teams were selected for participation via a worldwide qualification tournament that began in August 2007. In the first round of the tournament finals, the teams competed in round-robin groups of four teams for points, with the top two teams in each group proceeding. These sixteen teams advanced to the knockout stage, where three rounds of play decided which teams would participate in the final.
  • One year before the beginning of the tournament it looked increasingly likely that South Africa would not be able to host the world cup, to the delight of the participants. This was largely down to construction workers striking against their employers as a result of receiving next to nothing for their efforts. Unfortunately for the workers, they were unable to find common ground with Fifa and were murdered. The semi-finals of the tournament saw three of the best tems in the world, and Uruguay, pitted against one another. The semi-finals saw both Holland and Spain go through.
