What's the point of drawing from pot 1 anyway? If you're in that pot it literally doesn't matter what group you're placed in until the other pots are drawn, so just assign them each a group from the get-go and start with pot 2.

Group F still scary. How does round robin work, top 2 from each group move into the knockouts?

lol at Richie Laryea just joining the OneSoccer call 30 seconds after the draw, from his phone with kids shouting in the background. Small market rear end stuff. Gotta love it.

I think that's a totally doable group for Canada. Mexico is going to get annihilated.

I actually think it's an excellent group for where Canada is as a team right now. They get to play their first game in a no-pressure situation against one of the best teams in the world to knock the rust off, then they get 2 measuring stick games against countries that are sitting about where the Canadians can realistically hope to climb to if the program can keep building. Morocco especially looks like a good matchup, they also have a younger team and are also a team that has improved their results a lot in the last year or two.

The US got lucky with timings, it shouldn't be nearly as hot that late. England v Iran at 16:00 local time kickoff? loving brutal. Canada has one late evening game, with two early evening ones. Mexico has two late evening games, with one early evening. Costa Rica if they advance past New Zealand not only get boned on the group (Spain, Germany, Japan), but they have a 13:00 kickoff for their second game. At least the other two are early and late evening.

Wikipedia says the average high temp in December in Qatar is 25°C/77°F so it shouldn't be uncomfortably hot for anybody really

Y’all temperate zone havers are spoiled. We’ve gone from 15F to 70F and back within two weeks or so around here. Mid70s for games will be great for these guys, it’s the super compact fixture schedule that will lead to issues

Yeah. I think last Sat we had a nice coating of snow, under an inch, and this week two 60+ days with thunderstorms. Old men discussing weather. Wish the World Cup was in two months and not 8

It'll be interesting to see if this year's World Cup has knock-on effects with regards to injuries since it's essentially being shoehorned into the traditional league calendar.

It was like 40-50 degrees on the field in Minnesota, cold but definitely not enough to put anyone in actual danger or instantly cause injuries. Stupid rumor imo
