World Cup Draw - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

**TiepayWrary** · 12-05-2009, 09:39 AM

I know this is not a soccer (football) board, but since this is a very international forum, I'll ask what everyone thinks of the groups for the world cup. I thought the US got an excellent draw.

**KlaraNovikoffa** · 12-05-2009, 09:47 AM

US got a great draw - France and Spain got even better draws. Hope to see some good soccer in the group stages. I'm a little dismayed that the two teams I'm rooting for (US and England) are in the same group. Ah well. Hardest groups - D and G.

June 12. Wheee! Will be taking a vacation day if necessary.

I always thought soccer wasn't that big in the US. Ah well, I personally am not a real fan and have no idea if our team got a good draw. From what I heard/read the Dutch team can't complain though.

The USA got very good draw, It will prolly let them get to round two. Who knows what will happen there. In the end it'll still prlloy be Brazil.

**apodildNoli** · 12-05-2009, 12:53 PM

The orange boys will be up against Japan, Denmark and Cameroon.

Not a bad draw at all. The Dutch already beat the Japanese. Denmark an Cameroon are though oponents of they have a good day...

oh well since i have the best laptop in my class i will probably be looking every match in a live stream :P (or at least the scores)

The draw was rigged. They put N. Korea in that group intentionally.

**kilibry** · 12-05-2009, 04:46 PM

As a England and US supporter I am pleased. England can and should win the group while US advances as 2nd. A good group for both!

I'm certainly not taking that for granted, the US have got a decent team and will be far better rested than our lot, half of which will no doubt turn up with broken meta tarsels etc. They'll also have to acclimatise to the heat and thin air in the high altitudes. It'll be close.

We'll probably beat every major team, to be put in place by a small country/team.

Two years ago, Russia!!!

**stastony** · 12-06-2009, 04:56 AM

Yes it will all be a lovely jolly.

Loads of boring nil-nils.

Motty drooling at every move the Brazilians make (and that will only be them putting on their shorts).

If the best team wins it will be Spain.
If the biggest cheats win it will be France
If the most overrated team win it will be Germany
If the dullest team win it will be Italy
If an outside bet wins it will be Portugal/Ivory Coast/Netherlands

But if England win it will be a miracle.

And sod the fact he is Italian; if England were to win it should be SIR Fabio Capello

**amberamuletuk** · 12-06-2009, 05:01 AM

we will do our usual trick shout........... easy easy (the Sun is already doing this(
get overconfident,
get a hiding offs "smaller" team
then whinge about bad luck and crawl home
needless to say i aint a football fan
