That's right, the group draws are known now. So in 6 months i can probably ressurrect this thread ;)

Belgium got Russia, Algeria and South-Korea in their group.
Every match is difficult in a world cup, but if we don't go through the next round, we can say we failed.

Dutch play Spain again, but they don't seem THAt awesome anymore. Although they must not underestimate Chili i think.
If they don't beat Australia they can forget qualification.

England facing Italy is always nice, with Uruguay and Costa Rica i'm not sure if they're even favorite to qualify in their group.

Yeah, when they drew Italy as the one European team to join the South American group things looked a little dire...then they drew England. Easy win. :)

Like J said; Belgium basically has the easiest group of all. If they don't make it past the group stage they failed hard. Next round is probably going to be either Germany or Portugal though, much more dangerous opponents.

An important aspect of this world cup is location. For example, in Group G (Germany, Portugal, Ghana and the US other country) they have to travel thousands and kilometers to Manaus, which is basically in the middle of the rain forest at 35+ temperatures and massive humidity, while most games played around and below the capital Brasilia will be much cooler. In a tournament where you play a game every few days that is killer.
