Perfectly natural

Article Abstract:

World Cup fans traveling to France may face worker strikes at the airports, public transportation facilities, and other institutions. Soldiers have also been deployed to make sure there are no riots or disturbances. However, some of the strikes may be over before games begin. French officials argue that the quality of competition is what people will remember, but others suggest France should have organized better.

The World Cup is played only once every four years, so it is not a surprise when people from all over the world are talking about the teams and players. There are 32 teams, 64 matches, and four weeks till the final game on July 12, 1998. There will no doubt be controversies, allegations, riots, and battles, but the World Cup is regarded by many as a time of excitement, fun, and rivalry.

French polish

Article Abstract:

France in 1998 became the seventh nation in the World Cup's history to win the tournament. France beat Brazil in a final game that was filled with great plays and memorable moments. This was a welcome change to the 1990 tournament in Italy, mostly remembered by defensive plays and red cards. The 1994 final game in the US had to be settled by controversial penalty shoot-outs.
