Draw was made recently, here are the teams in order of seedings

Group A

South Africa (Hosts of 2010 WC + CC09)
Spain (Euro 2008 Winners)
Iraq (Asian Nations Cup 2007 Winners)
New Zealand (Oceania Nations Cup 2008 Winners)

Group B

Italy (WC 2006 Winners)
Brazil (Copa America 2007 Winners)
Egypt (African Nations Cup 2008 Winners)
USA (CONCACAF Gold Cup 2008 Winners)

Group A is a total farce, they ave practically given Spain a free ride to the final and as for giving SA a seeding :roll: Blatter must have been sniffing glue.

Yep, darn that Blatter for seeding the host nation, where's he plucked that from? It's not as if host nations of tournaments always get seeded is it? :roll:

Time that was stopped though, SA havent even qualified for the ANC 2010 irrc, they havent even reached the last round of 2010 African WC Qualifying. If the country that is hosting the tournament has a low World Ranking then they shouldnt really get a seeding. SA will embarass themselves at the next WC. At the curent rate scoring a goal would be a good achievement for them let alone getting a point.

I dont get the big fuss. If Spain were seeded, then Brazil will have either had to play Italy still, or Spain

The fuss is obvious.

It's a FIFA competition, and there hasn't been any reason to slag off Blatter for a couple of weeks, so it had to be done.
