UEFA head, and former French football hero Michel Platini thinks that there are really only 3 main contenders for the World Cup titel this year in South Africa – Brazil, England and Spain – and not necesarily in that order!
Other teams he thinks may be difficult to beat – however these 3 particular sides have all the main qualities a team would need to win.
He was speaking in the completely non-European city of Tel Aviv – where for some very strange reason UEFA has decided to hold a congress. [?]
He also said noted that France, Argentina, the Netherlands, Ivory Coast and Portugal could make life difficult for his ‘favorites’.
