It's a tough group, to be honest. Even for Italy.
All the best for your team, though. :p

Spain, Brazil, and Holland for me. If Spain dont win the WC with that team they'll never win it lol.
England to be knocked out in the QF by portugal or (even better) USA

kinda feel back for north korea xD

I'm proud to see that people actually know portugal :p

I honestly hope we can make it trough the group phase, but I have faith in our team so I'm not too worried

are you 100% sure of this?

Spain will go home with the cup probably. Although The Netherlands have a good shot too (Hoop hooghouden haha)

Interesting draw.

Australia and Germany have similar play styles, would be nice if Australia had a good result against them. Not to mention the Germans are very cocky that their group will be a walkover. Serbia have a strong defense and are quite similar to Croatia, which Australia beat last WC. Against Serbia if Australia plays it's strongest players, a win is definitely possible. Australia's greatest chance is against Ghana -- Australia has had a 1-0 win over Ghana before.

Would suck to be in North Korea's draw - haha, good luck against Brazil, Portugal, and the Ivory Coast.

Groups H, E, and C look pretty easy.

Should make for an interesting World Cup!

we were so close.. damn it...

Well I think it's phrased in a way that leaves room for multiple interpretations, but yea, Ireland did not make the cut because they lost to France. France won because Thierry Henry used his hand to pick up the ball and pass it, which ultimately made the goal. I think this all happened in overtime.
Was quite some commotion about it, Irish people wanted a replay.

About the Dutch group, I think it's a group we can survive. We survived the ultimate pool of death at the euro championship, I think this one is doable.
I'll cheer for them obviously, but I don't really know what our chances are. We have such good players but it just never works out, maybe this is our time

I also think it's a shame we don't have Boulahrouz in our line up, I think he's an awesome defender.
