Senegalese defender Saliou Ciss seems like the biggest accident waiting to happen. Over the past four club seasons, he was sent off every 992 minutes, or once every 11 matches.
In the 6,941 minutes he has played in club football over the past four seasons, he has gotten two red cards as a result of second yellows and five straight red cards.
Three different players from Peru appear in this top 10 – Yoshimar Yotun, Christian Cueva and Luis Advincula.
Combined with the two Peruvian players from the previous table, it means that matches involving Peru in Group C are likely to see a lot of action, and not of the good kind!
In 2014, I remember Sunil Chhetri, Peter Crouch were there too. But John Abraham entry was a disaster.
Cant remember who was there in 2010 world cup.
2006 world cup by Star Sports/ESPN was one of the best in presentation. Long pre-match programs included MTV style comedy with Vinay Pathak, Ranvir Shorey (Bheja Fry) . Then host was Harsha Bhogle along with some British ex-players.
2002 World Cup was Ten Sports and I remember Novy Kapadia, Baichung Bhutia were there with some British Host.
Congratulations to USA-Canada-Mexico. Out of 207 members, 7 were ineligible to vote because of being host. Morocco got 65 votes, Americans got 134 votes and 1 pressed NOTA.
