South Africa will host the 2010 World Cup. Yes, this means they automatically qualify as the hosts, along with Italy as the reigning champions.

South Africa. The host country DOES automatically qualify. It was in the past that the host country was not automatically qualified. That has since changed :)

football ought to get nowhere. in the present day FIFA is making an attempt to enhance football to the a ways corners of the international with the 2018 experience in Russia, and the 2022 experience in Qatar. If the winners hosted the subsequent experience, in basic terms the best footballing countries ought to host and football should be frequently widely used interior of those countries, no longer the international phenomenon that that's. Plus, 4 years isn't just about sufficient time to get waiting for the international Cup. Stadiums should be inspected, and presented as a lot as FIFA code, and each and every now and then new ones will be equipped. a large number of teaching grounds should be equipped for the 32 communities if there are not any, and lodging for the thousands and thousands of human beings should be made besides. that's a great theory, yet in simple terms no longer useful.
