America is 1 continent not 2 , they are 10 countries in southern part +20-30 in north , they can make groups just like others ,

hé no, they divided the continent to ensure the qualif of USA , they play vs islands without any experience in football , that's why they qualify,they are always in 

they know  they have no  chance vs south american teams , this system of cheating is shameful

Knowing our luck Poland will draw Canada now and promptly lose their first WC match to a CONCACAF team :lol:

 

:POL is 4-0-0 vs CONCACAF teams (7-0 vs  :HAI in 1974, 3-1 vs :MEX in 1978, 3-1 vs :USA in 2002 and 2-1 vs :CRC in 2006).

I mean, hey, whatever you want!

Except that CONCACAF and CONMEBOL existed since 1948 and since 1958 when the qualifications started by continent there were different qualifiers for north and south america. (just like volleyball and norcaeca and csv)

I never really got that argument anyway.  North and South America are one continent, but Europe is not just a peninsula of the Eurasian continent?  You can even throw Africa in there since the Sinai Isthmus is the same as the Panamanian Isthmus.  And let's not even get into cultural differences.  Besides, Europe gets more quotas than Europe anyway.

Not even an argument...... it was never an issue, there were always separate qualification tournaments, with 24,32 and even next time with 48

As we also often see in Olympic qualification, the number of federations is vastly different and it happens that it would be similar if you divided the world in 4 zones instead of having some with 10 teams and some with 50...Europe (and South America, which will get to qualify at least 60% of their teams next times) get more teams but remember what was happening when, with the old FIFA ranking until 2018, the coefficient of a zone was determined by intercontinental games, results were so one sided in favor of UEFA and CONMEBOL against the rest that they had to introduce a completely made up minimum that in practice was giving N. American, Asian and African teams 3,4, sometimes 6 times the number of points that they earned "on the field"

    • A gold and a silver medal in the Panamerican tournament, not bad, i really don expect that "easily" defeat with USA.
    • World Cups don't generally have the exotic competitors we see in the world championships though, it's more likely starting down with the 13th best Austrians and such  
    • Congratulations to comissioner Rob Manfred and the rest of the MLB media for getting their dream world series.   As for my thoughts:    
    • MLB got their ideal WS: Yankees vs Dodgers
    • Their database is too poor for them to be able to accurately do this.
    • Yep, confirmed.  We have Marcelletje for , Lindsay Vonn and Lucas Pinheiro Braathen for .   However, Vonn and Hirscher will be wild cards, so starting down with the Chileans and the Iranians in the first leg.  Snow conditions are good though.     Vonn, Hirscher & Braathen Returning To Racing At World Cup Opening - InTheSnow
