Groups drawn and nobody even cares... shame, of Italy was in this World Cup (and USA) there would already be thousands of threads on here.

Oh well

So... a game against out Iberian brothers to start off... not bad B)

Pretty fun group for Spain. The game against Portugal should be nice... we should be better on paper, but let's hope Cristiano isn't at his best just in case :P

Morocco and Iran shouldn't have much of a chance to proceed, but they are still somewhat interesting. Iran is, along with Japan, the best team in Asia... always disciplined and willing to put up a fight despite their lack of individual quality. Morocco is pretty pacey and tries to produce good football from what I've seen... but they struggle scoring and they mostly rely on a good defense.

I wouldn't say there's a true group of death this time... but Group H, with Poland, Japan, Senegal and Colombia is probably the most balanced and will surely be very exciting.

for me the argentina, croatia, nigeria, iceland groups is really nice and easily the toughest group

You're probably right... but still it's not a group I would really label as "group of death" though. Not comparable to other groups we've seen in recent WCs.

In any case, it's an interesting group for sure though. The only downside is that all of the teams involved are very inconsistent... except Iceland, which are the weakest on paper (but imo have a good chance thanks to their mentioned consistency and their team cohesion).

group of death not so much, but its a group with 4 pretty decent teams

we all know how much croatia and nigeria struggle all the time despite being pretty strong on paper and since argentina isnt that amazing the other 3 teams can bully them on a good day

aside from that i am kinda happy for iceland that they got into a group with attractive opponents
