7 South Americans In Brazil 2014 World Cup? A Dream Come True?
most south americans as myself have always thought that our continent deserves a lot more world cup spots , hell, we are only 10 nations and we have won 9 world cups and 10 U-20 world cups.. for Brazil 2014 world cup, Brazil of course won’t play qualifiers, and the remaining 9 south Americans nations will play for 4.5 places, so that means 6 world cup spots, but what if a south american wins 2010 world cup? historically, europeans never win a world cup when the world cup takes place outside of europe.. us south americans have lift the world cup trophy in europe, north america, and asia… i’m 100% sure a south american national team will win 2010 world cup, let’s say argentine or uruguay or chile or colombia or paraguay win 2010 world cup,. and let’s say the FIFA decides that this team will qualify automatically to 2014 world cup.. that would mean, 7 south american teams in brazil 2014 world cup!
LOL
Paraguay = NO
Colombia = NO
Uruguay = NO
Argentina = NO, not conisistent at all
Chile = Possibly
Brazil is the only SURE team to compete for a title in 2010 out of South America.
Start by winning that 5th spot against the CONCACAF team and Pray that Mexico is not the 4th place team….No team goes into Azteca and dominates Mexico. Brazil knows that.
Actually the World Cup champions don’t qualify automatically anymore. They have to go through qualifying stages again, why do you think Italy is playing the qualifying games for 2010 World Cup?
Now only the host country automatically qualifies.
I doubt FIFA will change this rule back and allow the defending champs automatic qualification. It would be nice though to have more South America teams in the World Cup.
champions dont automacally qualify they stiop doing that like 2 world cups ago
