UEFA World Cup Qualifying

The draw was held today in Brazil.

Groups A - H have 6 teams each. Group I only has 5 teams.

Round robin home and away.

The 9 group winners will move on to the World Cup

The runners up in Groups A - H will be paired for a home and away series to determine the 4 other teams to go to the World Cup.
-Group I is excluded from this playoff because it started with less teams.

From Group I either Spain or France will NOT be going to the World Cup. (Belarus, Finland & Georgia are the other 3 teams in the group.)

"either Spain or France will NOT be going to the World Cup." unbelievable and I believe no teams from G have ever made it out of the group stage.

I was wrong about the group Spain and France are in. They CAN BOTH go through. I have corrected the wording above. Sorry about that. Thanks to everyone who sent me the corrections. I went back to the FIFA page and read the details again to make the correction.
