Football World Cup 2006 - photo wallpapers: The 2006 Football World Cup in Germany - The 2006 Football World Cup (officially titled 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany™) finals are scheduled to take place in Germany between 9 June and 9 July 2006. Qualification for the tournament is now complete, with all 32 competing teams confirmed. The decision to award the highly prestigious event to Germany was controversial, as it was widely expected that the tournament would take place in South Africa. The final tally was 12 votes to 11 in favour of Germany. The New Zealand FIFA member, Charles Dempsey, who was instructed to vote for South Africa by the Oceania Football Confederation, abstained from voting at the last minute. If he had voted for the Africans, the tally would have been 12:12, giving the decision to FIFA President Sepp Blatter; it was widely believed then that Blatter would have voted for South Africa. There has been much speculation since the vote of 2000 as to why Dempsey pulled out; there were reports of threats and bribes, involving the German satirical magazine Titanic. South Africa has instead been chosen as the host of the 2010 World Cup. Since the announcement of the 2006 award was made, FIFA has made public its intention to henceforth rotate the hosting of the event between its constituent confederations.
