Thirty-two teams from across the globe make up the field for the 2006 FIFA World Cup finals. Six continents are represented and six past winners will take part, including hosts Germany, who head the 14-strong European contingent, and holders Brazil who lead the South American challenge.
Can you name all 32 teams, the Continents, the past six winners – inlcuding the year they won the world cup.
And is it true that Scotland have “NEVER” won any cup………… :lol:4 December, 2005 at 10:52 pm #173291I’d have a guess at the last 6 winners,
Brasil 2002
France 1998
Brasil 1994
Germany 1990
Argentina 1986
I would have a guess at Italy 1982
Argentina 1978
Germany 1974
Brasil 1970
England 1966
Brasil I think in 1962
Italy 1958 ???
I know Uraguay have won it aswell twice but don’t know when ?I don’t know about Scotland but I would imagine they won the Home International tournament at least once when it used to take place.

5 December, 2005 at 4:03 pm #173294i hope we avoid italy, being half italian i hate it when england play italy, i lose or win both ways
5 December, 2005 at 4:43 pm #173295We’re bound to get one top team, though, as it doesn’t look like we’ll be given a first rank seeding, Soulie.
6 December, 2005 at 12:46 pm #173296just been confirmed we have got a 1st rank seed, appently came out 2nd behind brazil in the way fifa work it
maybe they take the cricket in account too :)

6 December, 2005 at 12:53 pm #173297Brilliant news indeed! Seedings here.
Worst case scenario, I reckon, is England, Australia, Holland, USA. Best case scenario is England, Togo, Croatia, Trinidad. I can’t wait for Friday. This is so much better than Chrimbo. :D
6 December, 2005 at 1:00 pm #173298yes, looking forward to friday and the world cup, getting that buzz again that only world cups can bring
would also like to avoid sweden, and those japinize too, lets see what happens, england have the quailty though to get through the group stage at the very least
