WITH the amount of eye candy on display at the Confederations Cup, is it any wonder more and more women are taking an interest in the tournament?

One look at a footballer's chiselled features and drop-dead gorgeous looks is enough to make any hot-blooded woman go weak at the knees.

Then there is Egypt's Amr Zaki. For those who thought Egypt consists of a couple of pyramids, camels and the Nile River, think again. This boy has the talent to score both on and off the field.

I'm sure if it's a warm bed to retire to after a tough game for his country, there will be plenty of volunteers for Zaki to sleep over!

On the local front Benson Mhlongo, Siboniso Gaxa and Elrio van Heerden prove Mzansi provides hunks of its own. A calendar of Confed Hotties wouldn't be complete without Italian captain Fabio Cannavaro.

The whole Italian team look like a bunch of movie stars with their slicked backed hair and bronzed bods, but it's Cannavaro that gets the nod.

With his boyish looks and seductive grin he's sure to get even the nuns at Saint Catherine's Convent blushing in excitement.
