The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

USA clearly has the easiest of the first four groups.
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

Why'd Ivory Coast go to Brazil rather than the US group? Just to assure they didn't get a CONMEBOL team in Brazil's group?

The first two African teams would go to Brazil/Argentina.
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

This is it. We've got the best WC Draw we've ever seen.

Which one is shaping up to be the Group of Death?

edit: Looks like G just answered my question.

CONCACAF has a decent shot of advancing all three teams out of this group.
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

Oh God. North Korea is going to lose three games and have 0 GF, 24 GA
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

Wherever Portugal goes will be the Group of Death
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

And we have our Group of Death - three good teams and one in which the players will probably be dead if they do badly.
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

A. South Africa, Mexico, Uruguay, France
B. Argentina, South Korea, Nigeria, Greece
C. England, United States, Algeria, Slovenia
D. Germany, Australia, Ghana, Serbia
E. Netherlands, Japan, Cameroon, Denmark
F. Italy, New Zealand, Paraguay, Slovakia
G. Brazil, North Korea, Ivory Coast, Portugal
H. Spain, Honduras, Chile, Switzerland
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

Brazil, Ivory Coast, Portugal and North Korea. That will be ugly.
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

North Korea should just file pre-emptive rape charges with the South African police now.
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

How did Portugal get #4 in Brazil's group and face them in game 1 of the group stage?
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

Honestly, playing style wise Spain and Italy are a better fit than England for the USA.

Besides that both countries are thrilled.

But England starts slow and we open with them. I expect Fabio to play that first game in this group pretty conservatively.
 
Re: The official thread of the 2010 World Cup draw

USA clearly has the easiest of the first four groups.

I'd still give it to Mexico's group. They get the worst African team, the worst South American team, and a French team thats coach by the biggest idiot in soccer not named Diego Maradonna.
