[Mick Pattaya]

Football, yes, the one actually played with feet & any use of hands earns a violation. Group stages for the quadrennial showpiece conducted tonight & we finally know which teams play each other in the preliminary group phase with some big teams drawn against each other.

Largely, all the major competing nations have been give a fairly reasonable draw, though, this being the world cup, upsets happen & to a certain extent spice up the competition even further.

I'd be very surprised if Brazil and Argentina don't win their groups.  The other  groups are much more unpredictable.
