The majority of the world will be watching the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa for the show of talented football, and the superb competitiveness of the whole event. With the best 32 nations on show and the potential for a great tournament, it will be one of the most anticipated events in the world this year, and will be watched by billions of adoring fans all around the world all routing for their home country – of course it’s a shame that there can be only one winner.
However, there is a small core of women (and some men) who are looking for an entirely different kind of talent! They’ll be watching closely as the top players strip off to celebrate a goal or a victory and will be out to find the sexiest man of the tournament. So who are the hotties of the tournament?
Cristiano Ronaldo – Portugal
Not only is Ronaldo one of the top football players in the World, and surely going to be one of the stars of FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Aftrica, but he is also darned cute! Many female fans almost swoon when he removes his shirt to celebrate a goal.
He’s 21 and one of the most famous men in the world – who wouldn’t want to capture his heart?
Guillermo Ochoa – Mexico
Ochoa is one of a slew of young and sexy goalkeepers coming to the forefront of soccer who will definately star in the upcoming FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa
In the past, the goalkeeping position hasn’t really been that ‘interesting’ but with all these hotties surfacing, there certainly is a growing fan base amongst women for the goal keepers. Women especially like the fact that Ochoa is good with his hands!
Fernando Gago - Argentina
Some would say that Gago is a little old to be one of the sexiest football players at the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa, but at 24 he is in the prime of his life, playing some of the best football of his career and becoming an important member of the Argentinean team.
While he will excel on the field, some say his good lucks will do him wonders off the field too!
David Beckham - England
While he is not actually playing in the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa there’s no doubt that he will be there to cheer on the England Team. Beckham is arguably the most well known sports person in the world and is definitely one of the sexiest men in the world. There are many females around the world who envy Spice Girl Victoria, who managed to snag Beckham.
Frederick Ljunberg - Sweden
Frederick Ljunberg has those smoldering looks that many Swedes are famous for, and many females at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa will definitely fall for his athletic body – which was on show for Calvin Klein very recently. While perhaps not one of the most famous players attending the tournament, he is definitely one of the sexiest.
Roque Santa Cruz – Paraguay
In Germany, Roque Santa Cruz is ranked as the most handsome soccer player. At the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa, there’s no doubt that he’ll be challenging for the most handsome player of the tournament And while it’s unlikely that Paraguay will win the world cup, there’s no doubt he’ll win many hearts.
Theo Walcott - England
**Breaking news - OK I know he didn't make the England World Cup squad but I'm sure you'll see his face on TV during the World Cup!**
This 21 year old star from Stanmore in England is likely to be one of the stars of the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa – he’s an illustrious goal scorer and an amazingly talented player. He also has a look that could go straight onto the cover of Vogue.
He does have a girlfriend, but many females will definitely be hoping to win his heart at this year’s tournament.
Fabio Cannavaro – Italy
For those of you who like a handsome older man, then Cannavaro is your man at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. An experienced centre back for Juventus, and a World Cup winner with Italy, he has nothing to prove as a player. His handsome Italian looks mark him as one of the most handsome men at the tournament this year.
Benny Feilhaber – USA
Felihaber, was born in Brazil but has lived in the USA since the age of six. He is one of a new breed of home grown USA talent that are beginning to light up the football world with the talents. In the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa, not only will he show the world that the USA is vastly improved, but he will also show that not all the hunky US sportsmen play American Football!
Yoan Gourcuff – France
If you’re looking for a sophisticated look at the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa then look no further than Yoan Gourcuff. This 24 year old has an illustrious career for France and is one of the best strikers at the World Cup. He is very quick and agile and may need this speed to get away from the hordes of women who will undoubtedly be chasing him at this year’s world cup.
