So in Europe we have France, Greece, Portugal and Slovenia
Algeria knocked out Egypt to qualify.

Woah - Slovenia beat Russia! Russia were my outside tip!!! Dang. Also, it's hard to believe Algeria beat Egypt. Egypt are like the most successful modern African team by miles, yet they often go wrong in qualifying. |

Algeria beating Egypt is not a surprise. Many Algerian players play in French Ligue 1. As for the Russian players, expect phone calls from Russian Mafia. |

The draw takes place on December 4th.
Would love to see England and South Korea drawn into the same group. |

Love to see NZ and host nation drawn together. Bafana Bafana can show that not only sheep chasers can't play rugby but also can't play roundball game either. |

wouldn`t be surprised in the slightest. The hosts usually get drawn in the `easy` group........Brazil also always manage to get drawn against piss easy teams.
PS: Uruguay also qualified through the play offs the other day |

South Africa can play a bit. Ajax Amsterdam has a youth school set up down there. |

Talk about being sore losers. Egypt has recalled its ambassador to Algeria.  |

Looking at South Africa's past 11 internationals doesn't give much hope, I agree. |
