I think the Guats have the advantage over T&T, a point ahead, both have to play Mexico in their last two games plus if they finish level on points they have amuch better GD plus they beat T&T 5-1 while T&T beat the Guats 3-2.

looks like Angola have qualified, due to them finishing with the same points as Nigeria, and having beaten them once and drawn with them.

currently, senegal are winning and Togo are down 2-1 so Senegal will win the group, but of course, this could always change

P

which is why I posted the results between the two teams

Also Angola has just qualified for the first time.

**Plastic Paddy** · 08/10/2005, 7:47 PM

Add the Ivory Coast, Ghana and Togo to that list.

Which means no Cameroon, Nigeria or Senegal...

**Metrostars** · 09/10/2005, 1:25 AM

Croatia
Italy
Portugal

I'll redo the list after the Wdnesday games, unless Metrostar wants to beforehand?

Good to see more African countries in it. There'd only been 9 ever before this now there'll be 13.

Looks like I might be wrong with my T&T/Guatamala prediction. The Guats got an early goal in Mexico but fell 5-2 in the end. But now T&T must play Mexico and Guatamala must play Costa Rica who qualified yesterday.

BTW 14 teams qualified yesterday. Here is the total list:
Qualified Teams (24):

Angola
Cote d'Ivoire
Togo
Ghana
Tunisia
Japan
Iran
Korea Republic
Saudi Arabia
Germany
Ukraine
Netherlands
Poland
England
Croatia
Italy
Portugal
USA
Mexico
Costa Rica
Argentina
Brazil
Ecuador
Paraguay

**Metrostars** · 13/10/2005, 3:38 AM

Stern John scored two goals in T&T's win over Mexico, that puts them in the playoff with Bahrain. I fancy T&T making it to their first finals.

**Thunderblaster** · 27/10/2005, 6:31 PM

We had the Reggae Boyz in 1998. Can we have the Calypso Boyz in 2006? Trinidad and Tobago will be the fun team of the World Cup if they beat Bahrain.

And seven debutantes! Possibly the most since the war (too lazy to check - there's a link here somewhere).

Angola
Togo
Ghana
Ivory Coast
Trinidad & Tobago
Ukraine
Czech Republic

Japan, Ecuador and Australia have only qualified once.

There's going to be some hammerings, but it'll be an interesting World Cup. Or as interesting as it could be for a neutral...

Probably. The first few were full of them.

Obviously in 1930, the first, all 13 teams were debutantes.
