Seedings for World Cup draw

[Wizzard]

FIFA have confirmed that the draw is open, although no more than two European teams will
play in the same group and that, for example, all the South American teams will not be
based in either Japan or South Korea - they will be evenly spread between the two.

FIFA general secretary Michel Zen-Ruffinen also said that teams that met in the qualifying
competition could meet each other in the finals.

He said: "The draw is open, apart from the restrictions we have described.

"Once the eight seeded nations are allocated into each group, eight European nations will
be drawn and placed in each group from A to H.

"The three remaining European teams will then be drawn and placed in a group which does
not already contain two other European teams."

POT ONE
Seeds - France, Japan, South Korea, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Italy, Spain.

POT TWO
The 11 remaining European teams: Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, England, Ireland, Poland, Portugal,
Russia, Slovenia, Sweden, Turkey

POT THREE
Ecuador, Paraguay, Uruguay, China, Saudi Arabia

POT FOUR
Cameroon, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, Tunisia, Costa Rica, Mexico, United States.
