FIFA World Cup Pools Drawn Up - Spain in Pool A.


Today FIFA unveiled the pools which will be used when they draw the groups on the 4th December in Cape Town. There are still six spots to be decided with the European and Central/South American playoffs still needing to complete the second leg, and in Africa we await the extraordinary sudden death playoff between Eygpt and Algeria after their finished completely tied in their group: surely a first for World Cup Qualifying history.

The exact make-up of the pools can change depending on who wins in the playoffs; If Ireland get past France and Portugal beat Bosnia then they will swap pools. Likewise if Uruguay get knocked out by Costa Rica, the scenario would be that the USA or Mexico would swap places with the Costa Ricans.

Dream Group:
Spain
Switzerland
Paraguay
New Zealand

Group of Death
Spain
Holland
Ivory Coast
Mexico

Here are the pools: (Agree or Disagree with groups chosen above?)

    no coincidiremos con brasil.... total ya veremos contra quien jugamos en la fase de grupos, me gustaría estados unidos y ganarles ya que ellos nos eliminaron en la confederaciones, de todos modos holanda tambien me gustaría mucho, sería un partidazo y mexico no tanto pero tambien, saludoos.

    Tienes razón, Holanda sería un partido buenísimo, pero preferería jugar contra ellos más tarde... normalmente juega muy bien en la fase de grupo! Ganar a los EE.UU tambien estaría bien! Pero pase lo que pase España se clasificará...seguro! ;)

    Barbio: A ver si Portugal gana mañana contra Bosnia! Será un partido bastante dificil!
