Weekly Round-Up

With the entire world of club soccer on a break, World Cup qualifying has taken center stage. So far, the nations of South Africa, England, Netherlands, Spain, Brazil, Paraguay, Ghana, Australia, Japan, South Korea and North Korea have punched their respective tickets for South Africa 2010.

It is crazy to think the World Cup is only nine months away. Let us just hope that the stadiums can get completed in time for play to start!

Here are a few tidbits from around the world of soccer this week:

-England's manager, Fabio Capello, is determined to make sure his side's camp is not involved in a media circus like World Cup 2006

-The U.S. National Team is still learning lessons while dominating CONCACAF competition

-Scotland's James McFadden scores on an amazing run versus Macedonia

Domestic seasons kick into high-gear after this week, so come back for the latest news.
