Colombia? I don't think so.


France is so lucky, last time the lowest ranked Euro team from Pot 4 was put into other pot but now it'll be a random team?

France got lucky with Henry handball four years ago to qualify, got lucky with offside goal in final qualifying game and now this...

Colombia's in the seeded pot, it could happen. And this is their first time in the tournament in 16 years, I say they're ripe for the picking.

If you think Columbia is ripe for the picking then you don't know the sport. They had an excellent qualifying campaign, have one of the best forwards on the planet and are a dark horse to go deep into the tournament. They would be strongly favored over the US in a head-to-head match.

Don't tell me what I do and don't know.

Anyway, I'd much rather have been in a group with Colombia than Germany ...

Spain, Chile and Australia, I like it Don't really care for Australia but the other games should be nice. Looking forward to group D and group E, the teams are so close! Belgium, France and Argentina got lucky, no excuses for them.
