From Previous World Cups a group will contain a max of 2 European sides with the other continents avoiding each other.
e.g. Argentina and Brazil won't draw Paraguay, Uruguay or Chile. Has this changed? |
|
By:
"Geographical criteria will also be respected, meaning that no two teams from the same confederation will be drawn in the same group (except European teams, where a maximum of two will be in a group).
"For example, South Africa cannot play the African teams from pot three and Argentina and Brazil cannot be drawn against the three remaining South American teams." |
|
By:
No, that's the way it works. Brazil/Arg can't draw South American teams and South Africa can't draw an African team.
fact! |

Slovenia may surprise a few.
