Question
Find out whether there is any grammatical error in below sentence.
People are wanting / to see the home team / win the game. 
Options:
A .  People are wanting
B .  to see the home team
C .  win the game.
D .  No error
Answer: Option A
Answer: (a)
Want (not usually used in the progressive tenses) = to have a desire or a wish for something. 
Look at the sentence : All I want is the truth.
Hence, Present simple i.e. People want should be used here. The sentence shows a general wish/ desire.
