Here we go again.

4 years of waiting are over, as the first of 64 matches that make up this tournament gets underway. 161 goals were scored during the last World Cup. It took the German team just a few minutes to notch 1 up the first of this year's tally 2, scoring in their match against underdogs--Costa Rica.

The organizers are expecting up to a million people to visit Germany for the tournament, as many as 10 percent, that's 100 thousand of them, from Britain alone.

We stay in Frankfurt and we are obedient.

And waiting for the fans, a familiar sight, British police walking German streets for the first time with their German counterparts. And another familiar face, Hard Man actor Ray Winston.

Hey hello, English Cop.
From England?
Yeah, I am on high, Ah! Levy 3 it, levy it.
all right. he's up for the full game.
Oh,I did, oh,I've done nothing.

At the US team headquarters, there was added security, following a heightened terror threat after the death of Al Zarkawi.

So ahead for these fans, 96 hours of televised giant-screen gut-wrenching tension crammed 4 into 3 long weeks,with the hopes and fears of devoted 5 fans from 32 countries around the world now hanging in the balance.
