POT 4: Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, England, France, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, and Russia.
A pre-draw will be held to move one of the nine European teams in Pot 4 into Pot 2. That European team will then be drawn against one of the four seeded South American teams to preserve the geographical balance of the draw. The three teams not drawn against the European team in Pot 2 will return to the main draw, so we might have another group of death. Brazil, England, Mexico, Holland/Portugal/France/Italy Argentina, Portugal, USA, France/Italy/Holland/England

How did Holland get into pot 4 and Colombia into pot 1? In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

Columbia are ranked 4th in the FIFA rankings while Holland are 9th plus due to geographical balance they can only be a specific number of European teams in Pot 1. Here's what i don't understand, why is Switzerland in pot 1 yet Italy and Portugal are ranked higher them!

With the quality in pot 1 & pot 4, African countries in pot 2 are all doomed! Thieves

Seems FIFA played some games with the draw. The lowest ranked team in Pot 4 should have gone direct to Pot 2, and draw either Brazil, Argentina, Colombia or Uruguay. The lowest ranked team in Pot 4; France.

Looking at that dress rehearsal, it is never going to be easy for any of the African Teams even after the final draw is made a it appears we will end up with more than one group of death.
