THE WORLD CUP OF FOOTBALL IN 2010


The 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa was the 19th edition of the Football World Cup. The competition was held in South Africa, between June 11 and July 11 of that year, the first time the tournament was held in Africa and the fifth time it was in the southern hemisphere, surpassing the host country in the election prior to Egypt and Morocco.

The championship was composed of two phases: in the first, eight groups of four teams were formed each, advancing to the next round the two best of each group. The sixteen qualifiers then met in elimination matches, until they reached the two teams that played the final at the Soccer City Stadium in Johannesburg.

Several selections returned to this World Cup after many years of absence. These teams were joined by Slovakia and Serbia , although selections of these last two nations had participated in previous World Cup events, but representing countries now disintegrated; Czechoslovakia in case of the first, and Yugoslavia and later Serbia and Montenegro in case of the second.

After the consecration of Spain to the Netherlands, this World Cup was the first played outside Europe in which a team from that continent was proclaimed champion, and it was the first time since 1998 that he won a team without previous world cups in his winners, as well as the first time since 1978 when two teams without world cups met in the final. As world champions, Spain participated in the FIFA Confederations Cup 2013.

P.E. PROYECT-YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT

I talk about what I eat some days ago:
For brakfast I drank a cup of milk with colacao and I ate a toast with oil:
For half-morning I ate a ham sandwich and I drank water.
For lunch lentils with vegetables and ribs and for dessert some pineapple.
For mid-afternoon I ate a patty.
And for dinner I ate a hamburguer and a yogurt.
WHAT CAN I IMPROVE TO EAT MORE HEALTHY:
For breakfast instead of colacao that have a lot of sugar I can eat cocoa and some fruit.
For half-morning I can eat anything more healthy like some with corn or with any type of corn or rice.
For lunch I think that lentils with vegetables are healthy but I can eat a sald too, and for dessert fruit is well.
For mid-afternoon I can eat fruit and something more natural.
And for dinner I can eat a salad too and instead of a yogurt with sugar and other things that have it, a natural yogurt.
I can include some fish and pasta, and I try to eat less sweets and snacks and eat more fruit.
