England's problem this time around.

yes, that is one of the wins from the draw

other thoughts on groups that are set:

group c - morocco/scotland for 2nd

group e - coteivoire/ecuador for 2nd

group g - group of life - beligium walks

group h - group of rest - uruguay and spain start the bottom 11 in the first game since they both open with walks

group j - group of life 2 - austria might hold argentina to 3 or 4

group l - group of partial death - england gets the hardest draw (pending playoff winners)

 

the announcement of the venues and kick times will determine the fate of the europeans- indoor vs. noon outside

France vs Norway might be the match of the group play

Argentina has the easiest group. Then Germany and Brazil. They can trip into the second round. 

 

So what is the group of Death? I would not want to be France. Or England.

Wait ... what? Why did Uzbeckistan get bumped into K?
 
 

Bump because of teams left combos i believe

That's what I don't get - Norway could be in Group K I think - unless Pot 4 muddies it all up.

 

So it took me a while to find it - but I did, from reddit:

Uzbekistan could not be put in Group I with France and Senegal because the winner of the Bolivian-Suriname-Iraq playoff must end up in a group with 2 European teams and one African team. The only possibility for such a group was to put Norway in group I.

 

So yeah, it was a Pot 4 muddle.

Out of every song ever recorded by American artists this is the one thats picked.

Jfc this whole production was trash.
 

You know why that song was played.

Anyway, this is how I think it shakes out for the US in the Knockout Stage provided they finish first or second in Group D or are one of the top eight 3rd place finishers:

1. If USA wins Group D

  • Will play 3rd place in:
    • Group B (Canada, UEFA Path A winner, Qatar, Switzerland)
    • Group E (Germany, Curacao, Ivory Coast, Ecuador)
    • Group F (Netherlands, Japan, UEFA Path B winner, Tunisia)
    • Group I (France, Senegal, IC Path 2 winner, Norway)
    • Group J (Argentina, Algeria, Austria, Jordan)

2. If USA places 2nd in Group D

  • Will play Runner-Up in:
    • Group G (Belgium, Egypt, Iran, New Zealand)

3. If USA places 3rd in Group D (and is one of the top eight 3rd-place teams):

  • Will play Winner in:
    • Group K (Portugal, IC Path 1 winner, Uzbekistan, Colombia)
    • Group I (France, Senegal, IC Path 2 winner, Norway)
    • Group E (Germany, Curacao, Ivory Coast, Ecuador
