Flip Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Yesterday they did a test draw for the groups. Cafu, Zidane, Cannavaro, Hierro and Geoff Hurst pulled the balls. Brazil ended up with Italy, France and Australia oh god. England, Spain, South Korea, Ivory Coast. I seriously hope this doesn't happen again tomorrow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Rehearsed Draw Group A : Brazil, France, Australia and Italy Group B: Uruguay, Nigeria, United States and Croatia. Group C : Argentina, Russia, Ghana and Costa Rica. Group D: Switzerland, Chile, Japan and Greece Group E : Spain, Ivory Coast, South Korea and England Group F : Colombia, Cameroon, Honduras and the Netherlands Group G : Germany, Ecuador, Iran and Portugal Group H : Belgium, Algeria, Mexico, Bosnia and Herzegovina I definitely wouldn't mind this at all. For some reason, I have a massive feeling that we are going to draw the United States. Better them than Mexico, Japan, or Korea out of that pot, anyway. There is absolutely no chance that Brazil draws a tough group in this, btw. I expect them to get Algeria and Honduras. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Would take that, it's not going to get much easier. Mexico are awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Would take that, it's not going to get much easier. Mexico are awful. They are, and the US is better than South Korea as well objectively, but I think that our team matches up well with the Americans style of play. Teams from weaker federations, like US, Japan, Nigeria, etc. are always at a slight disadvantage in the draw because the weakest teams in the tournaments are usually the final qualifiers from their continent. In this case Honduras, Iran, Costa Rica, Algeria. Therefore the easy teams are generally in your pot. The so-called groups of death (according to hype anyway) at the last five tournaments have featured CIV, Ghana, Nigeria, and the US. They wouldn't be if it was Angola or Bahamas.

Deuce Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 As much as I'd appreciate the hospitality, the smug look on your face as you served us would kill me. Probably feed us piranha shit and call it a delicacy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I'd cook the food. Anyways, just heard that hotel guests that aren't part of the draw have left their hotels since FIFA has banned everything from the hotel that isn't a FIFA sponsor. People weren't allowed to get coconut-water ffs because of FIFA. Bunch of idiots. I'm arriving in Costa do Sauipe next week, I wonder what the talk of the place will be Can't believe they've actually banned beverages that aren't part of their sponsors Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Utter scumbags the lot of them. It's unbelievable. We live there, although at the residential part and not hotel, and there are so many people who live off selling stuff especially coconut water on the beach. Instead of giving these people an extra income in an event like this, they've banned it completely. The whole organisation is an absolute joke.
