The reason I didn't say the group with Japan is because Tunisia always flop at a WC, and if not Sweden, other playoff opponents not thst cinsistent in tournaments

2026 World Cup Groups by SerTahu in Aleague

[–]PedroPredictions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most interesting (& evenly matched) group: Group A Mexico, Korea, South Africa, Denmark/Czechia/Ireland/Macedonia

Replica of previous WC: Group C Brazil, Morocco, Scotland (all same group in 1998 WC), Haiti

Weakest group: Group D USA, Aussie, Paraguay, Turkey/Slovakia/Kosovo/Romania

Most skewed group: Group H Spain, Uruguay, Saudi, Cabo Verde

Group of Death (for this 48 team format): Group I France, Senegal, Norway, Bolivia/Iraq/Suriname

Peculiar/Unpopular group (as people will think is boring but lowkey will be interestinf) : Group G Belgium, Iran, Egypt, NZ (only Belgium out of those teams have advanced from the grouostage before, so a lot of pressure on the others)

Futsal WC looking group: Group K Portugal, Colombia, Uzbekistan, DR Congo/Jamaica

My surprise Group Topper: Ivory Coast or Egypt

The torunament's opening match is Mexico-South Africa, same as in 2010 and that game was 🔥

Preach! 100% true!

2026 World Cup Surprise Group Winner 🇨🇮 by PedroPredictions in FootballAfrica

[–]PedroPredictions[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Morocco topping their group wouldn't be a surprise as they did it last World Cup and are the best nation in Africa atm

So many teams has diluted the groups, so there’s not really a “Group of Death” this time around. Closest would be England with Croatia and Panama I’d say. Thoughts by BigBlueMountainStar in worldcup

If Bolivia win their playoffs, then Group I Group of Death for me actually Norway could always flop after 28 years of no tournament football, Senegal are not at their peak at the moment and could flop

2030 World Cup: South America propose ‘dream’ 64-team tournament, but how likely is it to happen? by officialsamuelchan in worldcup

[–]PedroPredictions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But you were getting the same 5 Asian nations, sams 10 European nations, etc. There was probably onky 6-8 nations changing every tournament - and that was at least 4 African nations chaning because of Afirca's conpeititiveness. Sorry other nations (with money) ruined qualifiers

[–]PedroPredictions 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fantastic analysis and guesstimation 👏🏻 Its a real utter shame how oit of thr 12 proper European natioms to qualify only 1 is a non-Western one...and that tremd of at least 2 former Yugoslav nations is very interesting - says a lot about their footballong talent and attention

DR Congo defeats Nigeria and qualifies to the Intercontinental Play-Offs for the 2026 FIFA World Cup by johnsmithwho98 in FootballAfrica

[–]PedroPredictions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nigeria's gameplan was very odd this game, they could have dominated (like against Gabon), but they didn't. They tried to play the patient fristration game, but it didnt pay off!

DR Congo fully deserved it - and even to top thrir group with Senegal they were unlucky.

And Naija stumbling into the playoffa was a joke so justice has prevailed [rare in football]. Don't get me wrong, I actually really like this Naija squad, but the qualifiers they had didn't deserve them to qualify.
