There is no mistaking the main topic of discussion in the latest issue of FIFA World as our special June/July double issue concentrates solely on the global footballing extravaganza that is the 2010 FIFA World Cup™. The bumper-sized edition takes an in-depth look at all of the 32 teams who have qualified for the South African showdown as well as the star players who could make the difference between an early flight home or glory in the tournament final in Johannesburg on 11 July. We also go beyond the top players and likely line-ups to examine some of the wider social stories involving the participating teams. Find out, for example, why Dutch fans will feel at home in South Africa, the power that football has over the peoples of Honduras and Uruguay, and which of the rival group-stage coaches are regular five-a-side buddies.
