World Cup Groups

[Mexel]

How on earth do they work "/ do the top 2 clubs go up or is it just the top? And how do the play offs work :S?

Someone help me out on this one please :l, usualy google is the help to all my problams, this time it was not!

world cup qualifying groups you mean?

if so, the top team goes through and the eight best runners up go into the play-offs. as there are 9 teams and 1 group has 5 teams (this was scotland's) and the rest have 6 they take away the results against the team that finished bottom to make it fair. they've made the play-offs seeded now which is ********.

[Mexel]

How many teams go through in the play offs just the one team? And if you finish 2nd do you make it to the play offs? Not 2nd and 3rd?

[Immenseman]

finish 2nd = play offs. apart from one group. there are 8 teams in play offs with 4 spaces left i think. then all the south american teams etc

with the european qualifying groups the 2nd teams go into the play off stages, which are now seeded. :eusa_wall draws will be made where the four highest seeded team will play the other four lower seeded teams. i could explain asia, south america, north america (concaf or w/e), africa etc if you want as well lol, i spent like 2 hours reading about them all cos i want argentina not to qualify whakaka.

Nothing should be seeded.

I'd love to see a qualifying group with San Marino, Andorra, Liechenstein, Moldova, Faroe Islands and Armenia. Then another with Spain, England, Germany, Italy, France and Portugal. It would make things INTERESTING for once.
