Euro 2008 Seedings Announced

[8ecks7]

this got lost with all the world cup draw stuff

Reigning European champions Greece are top seeds in the draw for the UEFA EURO 2008™ qualifying competition in Montreux, Switzerland on 27 January 2006 at 12.00CET.

Hosts qualified
Austria and Switzerland, as host nations, qualify directly for the final tournament. The remaining 50 associations will be drawn into one group of eight and six groups of seven teams. The seven group winners and seven runners-up will qualify for the finals.

Seven pots
The sides have been split into seven pots, based on results achieved in the qualifying competitions for UEFA EURO 2004™ and the 2006 FIFA World Cup. The total number of points obtained has been divided by the total number of matches to give the coefficient rankings. In the case of national associations with equal coefficients, the most recent qualifying campaign has been taken into account to determine the ranking.

Now that is what it should be. Portugal and Czech Republic in Pot 1. FIFA should count the Euro too...too bad.

Stop crying, neither deserved to be put in top 1 based on the results of the last World Cup. The one didn't make it to the WC, the other one performed horribly.

OMG France, Turkey, Denmark, Israel, Wales, Cyprus, and Kazakhstan!

Group A will be awesome, with Israel coming 2nd to Kazakhstan.

Yeah I know, and you are right. However, I just complain about FIFA doesn't count how the NTs look in the UEFA Euros...

Germany, Spain, Italy are in pot 2. I would hate it if Holland got drawn with them :boohoo:

 

[Zlatan]

Can't care really. Just hope we don't come in a group again with those wannabees from Andorra again. I think there should be a B-team championship or something anyway I don't want to play them...

 

[Internazionale]

All the 7 qualifying groups consist of equivalently a strong NT's, particularly from pot 1, 2, 3, & 4.
