US Soccer announced today that a friendly match against El Salvador will be held on February 24, 2010 at 7 p.m. at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa. The game will be broadcast on ESPNClassic and Telefutura. The recent news of Tampa making the final 18 proposed US venues for WC 2018/2022, and the Tampa Bay Rowdies finally learning that they will field a USL team already had the soccer contingent in Tampa buzzing. I’ve got to imagine the game on February 24th will be a sellout, even if the roster is likely to only contain US based players.
The new Italy home shirt for the 2010 World Cup hasn’t officially been unveiled yet, but the above photograph shows a close-up of how the modern Puma shirt looks.
The new Italy soccer jersey is blue with red, white and green accent colors. The Azzurri shirt features a unique and trendy collar design with two different v-necks cut into the collar of the shirt.
Another unique design factor is the muscles texture that’s woven into the front of the shirt. We’ll have to wait to see how this looks in person and whether it’s a winner.

For me, Group H in the 2010 World Cup is the one I’m looking forward to the most. You can three of the most exciting teams in the world: Spain, Chile and Honduras. And Switzerland shouldn’t be underestimated either.

The group features what is undoubtedly the Group Of Death. Brazil will be the favorites to win the World Cup again. Portugal have the talent to perform at the highest level if they can just get their team playing together well. Ivory Coast was unlucky in the last World Cup to face a very difficult Argentina side that was in their way. And North Korea are the definite underdogs that very few people know much about.
