	FIFA World Cup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eight teams are seeded at the draw (based on both current FIFA World Rankings and recent World Cups), and assigned a group.
		The decision to hold the second of these, the 1938 FIFA World Cup in France was controversial, as the American countries had been led to understand that the World Cup would rotate between the two continents.
		World Cup Willie, the mascot for the 1966 competition, was the first World Cup mascot.

	World Cup Teams Would Rather Stay in Western Germany \| NEWS \| Deutsche Welle \| 22.12.2005
		When it comes to attracting top-drawer World Cup teams, the eastern part of Germany is lagging: About 26 of the 32 participating teams have opted for the West when it comes to setting up their World Cup bases during the month-long tournament.
		World Cup officials have been trying to ensure that the east gets some of the economic benefits of the matches by sending out some suggestions for bases in the east to participating teams.
		The 2006 World Cup will not only be a soccer spectacle but the run-up to the main event itself will be a cultural extravaganza which, the German organizers say, will give the prestigious event that extra dash of pizzazz.

	World Cup 2002 Teams :: Soccerphile
		Brazil* four-time winners of the World Cup have been going through the worst period in their history as far as results go - and a lot of people who are not Brazil nuts have written them off as potential winners this time.
		Germany* is a team lucky to have been seeded, according to those not fully acquainted with the vagaries of FIFA's algorithms.
		Croatia finished third at the last World Cup in France and unbeaten in their qualification matches this time round mean it will be no mean feat to defeat them.

	Planet World Cup - Teams 2002 - England
		In attack there is Michael Owen of Liverpool, one of the stars of the last World Cup, the hat-trick hero in Munich and the 2001 European Footballer of the Year, and with his explosive pace a nightmare for any defence.
		Any team with aspirations about winning the tournament should not fear Nigeria, Sweden or anyone, however if England are serious about winning the World Cup, then getting out of Group F in first place is vital as it offers them the best chance.
		Ron Greenwood’s team won all their preliminary matches and went into the second phase full of confidence, but the English scoringrecord could be read like a countdown; 3,2,1...needless to say, both England’s two second phase games ended in goalless draws, thus eliminating them undefeated because West Germany managed to beat Spain while England couldn’t.

		The world sat up and took notice when Aravinda De Silva's unbeaten hundred took Sri Lanka to World Cup victory in 1996, and they've performed sufficiently well since to remain one of the top sides in limited overs cricket.
		For a team traditionally dependent on a couple stars, New Zealand bring a remarkably balanced squad to the World Cup.
		Of the fifteen players in the squad, only six were actually born in Canada, with four of those either growing up or playing most of their cricket outside of the country.

	2002 FIFA World Cup - Teams - Senegal
		Although the team is a definite longshot, Senegal does at least have some stellar support in world music superstar Youssou N'Dour who composed and sang the official song of the 1998 World Cup, "The Beauty of the World at Play".
		I don't see France being troubled by any of these teams, although I think the first game against Senegal (CBC, May 31, 7 am ET) is a bit of a banana skin, because they are expected to win that game comfortably, and for Senegal, it's like a World Cup final to them.
		Denmark is not a spectacular team - they don't have any superstars - but they are a very workmanlike team and they will be very fit.

	2002 FIFA World Cup - Teams - Brazil
		Born Edson Arantes do Nascimento, Pelè led Brazil to its first World Cup in 1958 at the tender age of 17, and scored 77 goals in 92 games during his international career.
		He played in three World Cups (1978, 1982 and 1986) before retiring in 1990 after earning 71 caps for Brazil.
		Portugal's team is a recent (the team is only making its third World Cup appearance, but is among the favourites) powerhouse, but the community also comes as a multi-barrelled Lusophonic soccer powerhouse.

	World Cup Germany 2006 \| FIFA World Cup 2006 \| World Cup Teams
		Italy's 4-1 hammering of World Cup hosts Germany recently (March 1) was noted by ante-post punters and bookies alike.
		Basically they shouldn't be but the explanation probably lies with the fact that Toni plays for Fiorentina and hence isn't ever seen strutting his stuff on the Champions League stage.
		There are always risks in any ante-post bet but backing Italy's number one goal-getter at 33s now will surely give punters something to trade with at the very least if he's fit and well come World Cup time.

		As far as the World Cup is concerned, it hasn't been a problem in recent years because there have been less players travelling than available places.
		For the individual starter we take the national championship and the cup but it must not be that the individual players are playing in the team too.
		But as you wrote there always will be discussions, but I think it is good to discuss about it as long as the decision of the captain is accepted and respected, which is the case in Austria.
