France, Argentina, England and Spain can not meet until the semi finals
>>152145077Choose your group of death>Argentina>Croatia>Norway>Italy/Wales
>>152145112Brazil, Japan, Norway, Shitaly
Italy to qualify through POs and get Argentina, Japan and Norway in the groups.Getting one of N.Caledonia, Haiti, N.Zealand,... instead of Denmark, Italy or so from pot 4 is what to look out for. Can just pump that team and be guaranteed to go to the KOs.
>japan stop thinking with your dicks weebs
>>152145077Letting 60% of countries in south america qualify is fucking retarded
Qatar and S.Arabia conveniently moved up a pot. Even they can now reach the POs if they rig an easy pot 4 team in those groups.
Bongistan group:EnglandAustraliaScotlandNZ
>>152145205You should humble yourself before another spic team team eliminates you again lol
>>152145077Usa, Iran, Scotland, IraqWar on terror(ball) group.

>>152145456rollan: 12, 8, 8, 6so EnglandAustraliaIvory CoastUEFA Playoff B winner: UKR/SWE/POL/ALB (or alternatively New Zealand if you don't want an European team)
>>152145077lots of potential shiter matches.
>>152145112EnglandAustralia ScotlandYanks in Iraq
AFC Teams in Pot 3 are all fucked, Panama is gonna end up stuck in a really difficult group, those are the most likely teams that are gonna end up with UEFA playoff winners. Ghana might make a solid run if it gets an AFC or CAF rival in Pot 3
>>152145077gosh I hope new caledonia makes it
>>152145112ArgentinaMoroccoNorwayItaly
>>152145077good lord once again we will play against the same 5 or 6 teams we ever play in group stage + new shitter also, >pot 4
>>152145077>France, Argentina, England and Spain can not meet until the semi finalsThis sport is dead
>The opening match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup will be one of these 11 matchups: Mexico v Norway Mexico v Egypt Mexico v Algeria Mexico v Scotland Mexico v Paraguay Mexico v Tunisia Mexico v Cote d'Ivoire Mexico v Uzbekistan Mexico v Qatar Mexico v Saudi Arabia Mexico v South Africagod has abandoned us
>>152147714Norway humiliating shitspico would be kino
>>152145990>AustraliaWould prefer "shit and happy to be there" to "shit and a massive seething grudge about England"
>>152147714nice world cup you got thereno titles from now on will be valid
>>152147986Damn, none were valid up until now either. All have been rigged one way or another and the quality of play gets worse the further you look back. Guess the rankings are the only true measure. Have to win all of the time, year in, year out. Much harder than playing a handful of matches every 4 years, some of which you can lose or go to pens and rig/luck your way through a soft path.
Brazil, Austria, Uzbekistan, BolíviaWould be a good group>>152145178Japan is an unironically strong team.Best football team outside of Europe and South America
ArgentinaRepublic of IrelandSouth KoreaEgypt
>>152147714>Mex 0 - 1 Parslurrrrrrp
>>152149693yeah but that's how cup games are, few games and finito. it has it's flaws but that's the game. it wouldn't be that fun if it was other way (like 48 teams in three different countries)
CanadaUruguayNorwayTurkey
>>152145213God I hope that happens.
>>152149774>BolíviaWinner of Iraq/Bolívia/Suriname PO has been rigged into a group with:European team from Pot 1Second European team from Pot 2 or 3African team from Pot 2 or 3Probably get something along the lines of France, Morocco, Norway, BolíviaI see Mexico have rigged themselves 3 home games in the groups and if they win their group then have another home game in the KOs; and yet another home game if they can win their first KO game, against some 3rd place shitter.
what european team will we play now? i mean, serbia didn't make the cut...
>>152145112Give me>Brazil>Morocco>Norway>ItalyAnd, for contrast>Canada>Austria>Qatar>Haiti
>>152149998It's their neighbour you love playing against.
>>152147714Mexico vs. Norway would be cool, I think. A clash of cultures and a decent test for the Norwegian hype train. Mexico vs. Scotland could also be fun because both teams are memes and have good fan energy. I would also accept Mexico vs. South Africa (which would be a repeat of 2010) and Mexico vs. Egypt as decentOpening games are often ... bland. A lot depends on the host nation. Having really good match-ups there is rare
>>152145112That group's not actually possible, a max of 2 UEFA teams can appear per group. You can swap Croatia out for Morocco though.
>>152145077>USA>Iran>Saudi>Jordan
>>152145077>France, Argentina, England and Spain can not meet until the semi finalswhat? how and why?
>>152150710it's not true
>>152145077One Iran, one South Africa, and one Curaçao please
>>152147714>Mexico v NorwayPlease happen, mexico getting raped at home would be fucking hilarious
>>152155166haaland and friends never played against a team like mexico, and note that I'm not a mexico fan
>>152155504I respectfully disagree with you sir, Mexico has been in such dogshit form that a team like Norway who has been playing fairly well can obliterate them. Mexico just lost to Paraguay and Norway 4-1 Italy lol.
>>152155523current italy wouldn't score against paraguay in defensores del chaco
>>152145077Victoire facile/easy win for us
>>152155638Don't tell that to euroes, they will seethe kek
>>152149998switzerland as always
>>152147714Mexico actually wins most of these
>>152145112There won't be a group of death. That concept is a joke with a 48 team cup.
>>152145077ANYTHING TO PROTECT ARGENTINA
>>152145077what are they going to blame all those half full stadiums on
>>152155166>>152155523norwegians won't be able to cope with the weather
>>152145077>>152145213Nah, have you considered:The rugby championship pool>England>Australia>South Africa>New Zealand
>>152145077how suspicious...not scripted at all..
>>152145077Mfw Canada, Iran , Scotland, and New Caledonia get drawn into a group
>>152162592I want acomfy Anglo group but with CAN/USA from pot 1, not ENG.
>>152162592>englandcome on Temeura argentina are right there
PortugalIranScotlandSuriname
https://worldcupsimulator.com/Group G and K would be interestingWhat's yours?
>>152167458thats a cool site, even gives you the full schedule and you can simulate the whole tournamentidk why they dont rate Spain and had Mexico making the semis tho
>>152167458Black derby in group K
Imagine being in pot 4 and drawing any of the host countries plus two shiters from 2 and 3 like Australia and Uzbekistan lol
>>152147714>Mexico v Saudi Arabiait will be this, saudi 2034 needs hype
>>152154337july 4th in philly is USA (3rd in group a) vs England. 250th anniversary of founding of USA. england in red away shirts (red coats). too symbolic not to happen.
>>152167552>3rd in group agroup D
>>152145077EnglandAustraliaScotlandIrelandEASI
>>152150261Can't have 2 AFC teams
>>152150710Only assuming they win their groups
>>152157754Argentina Japan Norway Italy is objectively a group of death tho.
France, Senegal, Algeria, New Caledonia
>>152150261Replace Saudis and Jordans with SA and Haiti, two countries that drumpf slandered publicly
>>152145077Is there any way we can convince UEFA and FIFA to disqualify The Netherlands?> for ugly and anti-football> boring games that will generate no entertainment
>>152160326thisgod, what a shitfest
>>152168117I'd pay top dollars to witness Uzbekistan - Curaçao
>>152167723Even in that case, how would we know when they haven't done the draw yet?
>>152167458>Winner of Iraq/Bolívia/Suriname PO has been rigged into a group with:>European team from Pot 1>Second European team from Pot 2 or 3>African team from Pot 2 or 3sim is useless and would not be surprised if it messed up a few other constraintsnot even sure fifa will avoid messing up their own draw
>>152167458Here's what I got
>>152171900And the group stage, I'll just post the knockouts>RO32Mexico 2-0 CanadaBrazil 3-2 ArgentinaColombia 2-1 QatarGermany 5-1 IranCroatia 3-0 JapanPortugal 1-0 AustraliaAustria 0-3 ParaguayEngland 1-0 UkraineUSA 1-0 ScotlandFrance 4-0 Ivory CoastMorocco 0-3 SenegalNetherlands 2-0 IraqSwitzerland 1-2 SaudiSpain 2-1 UzbekistanEcuador 1-3 PanamaUruguay 2-1 Korea>RO16Mexico 1-1(p) BrazilColombia 4-2 GermanyCroatia 3-2 PortugalParaguay 1-3 EnglandUSA 1-2 FranceSenegal 2-3 NetherlandsSaudi 0-4 SpainPanama 3-1 Uruguay>QFColombia 2-0 BrazilCroatia 1-1(p) EnglandNetherlands 1-2 FrancePanama 0-4 Spain>SFColombia 3-5 EnglandFrance 2-4 Spain>FinalEngland 3-1 Spain you heard it here first ITS COMING HOME
>>152145169>Getting one of N.Caledonia, Haiti, N.Zealand>guaranteed to go to the KOsYup, we are definitely rigging it. Hopefully we get eliminated in the group stage anyway.
>>152172112In my simulation we made it to the ro16 only to get stomped by the Netherlands
>>152167458USA vs Scotland would be kino
>>152167458>>152171900You guys think North Macedonia beats Denmark and then either Czechia or Ireland? Isn't Denmark the favorite here?
>>152145077brazil, japan, qatar and haiti, let's gooooo
>>152172501I think the website just simulates it itselfAlso, Denmark is the favorite on paper, but it’s probably not as clear as you seem to think. Personally, I can imagine this going any way, so I wouldn’t call it a dumb guess (by the website)
>>152172576You can’t have Qatar and Japan, I think. They are both AFC members>>152172318In mine, you made it to the semifinal and lost 1:0 to the champion (Argentina), who won the final (against Morocco) 4:1. I don’t remember how the bronze medal game ended, only that it was against SpainLmao
really why so many shit teams? it won't make revenue anyways
>>152172501>North Macedoniathey larp as a phalanxmuch harder to break down than you'd thinkgot results vs England, Belgium and Italy recentlyfamously eliminated Italy in POs
>>152145077>IR Iranwhy the IR?
>>152173793I Ran
>>152160326>>152168117easy, FIFA can blame the lack of transport infrastructure. it's practically teed up for it.
>>152173793Islamic Republic of Iran.
>>152179427Yet they're commonly known as Iran while officially you also have Federal Republic of Germany, Republic of Iraq, Islamic Republic of France, Kingdom of the Netherlands, Kingdom of Belgium, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and so on.
While i didnt mind the 48 teams thing per se, this world cup group stage is stinking. 12 groups? 3rd places getting in? These pots are a mess, do it by geography like the normal and not by ranking. The KO rounds will also be organized by ranking. This is not what the WC is supposed to be, WC is a simple tournament: 8 groups, 1st of one group plays the 2nd of the other group. 8 groups of 6 teams would be better
>>152167458>Mexico won the WC on my drawNot posting this shit
>>152185474But just like "IR Iran" here's also "Republic of Korea" instead of South Korea. "Cote d'Ivoire" and "Cabo Verde" are also using their endonyms. If Turkey qualify they too will demand their meme endonym will be used, but others aren't that anal about it.
post'em simulationshttps://ash-iwn.github.io/wc-draw-sim/
>>152185474>Islamic Republic of Francekek
>>152167241oh fair that'd work too
>>152145077That's only if they all top their groups. One of them will surely fuck it up.
