World Cup XIII - #1
World Cup Preview - 22.01.2015

13.A number with good luck for some people and with bad luck for others.The GI World Cup has reached the 13th edition.12 exciting edition , some with surprises , some without , but all of them with great and exciting matches , both in the qualifications and the main tournament.Last year , on the 5th day of December , the World Cup Trophy filled with red and yellow , the collors of the new World Cup Champions , SPAIN , after an almost perfect season with 13 victories and only 1 defeat.Silver medallist was Italy , which many people saw as the main team for the gold , but again the gold curse strikes again.Big surprise in the 3rd place play-off also , as Romania and Finland fight for the last medal of the year , lucky Romania got a shiny bronze medal for the history.

We're looking forward to this year qualification , as this year might be the year of some great returs , such as United Kingdom , USA and Denmark.Good luck to all 36 teams , World Cup Magazine hopes to cover some incredible matches this year

P.S. - Good to be back.

Group A

Poland , Serbia , Hungary , Ireland .Poland with a new and foreign coach in the person of icthalian from UK.World Champions in the World Cup 3 and a silver medal one year later.Has 2 qualifing in a row at the World Cup.Last year 3rd place in the Group C , tied with Spain and Germany.Serbia has 2 participations at the World Cup in the last 3 years ( 10 and 12 ).One time World Cup Champions ( World Cup 6 ) and a bronze medal ( World Cup 5 ).Has the same coach as last year , requiem.Last year they reached the quarter final.Hungary missed 2 edition in a row and this year with the same coach , Lazlo they hope to be better.They have a silver medal in theyr history , in Canada , at the World Cup 9.Ireland seems to be the weakest team in this group but they could do some nice thing.They didn't qualify in the last 3 years but lonaldinho hopes to change that.

Group B

Russia , Spain , Finland and Sweden.What a group ! Russia with the same Cippolino as Head Coach.3 consecutive qualification at the World Cup in the last three years , but this year it will be much harder.Two bronze medals for them ( World Cup 3 and 8 ).The World Cup Champions , Spain , with the national hero , francisco javier , will try to defend theyr title.2 consecutive qualification in the last three years.They have a silver medal ( World Cup 2 ) and a World Title last year.Finland and the always present whitenekke.Almost always present at a World Cup , very close to a medal last year.A very young and dangerous team from the Scandinavian , Sweden , could be the nice surprise of this group.With Marcus once again at charge , they hopes to qualify at the World Cup , even that it will be a killer group.

Group C

Denmark , Brazil , New Zeeland and Croatia.First we will talk about Demmark and we wonder why they have 2 consecutive years without a qualification at a World Cup ? Maybe this year SrednaD will lead his national team to a new World Cup.They have 2 silver medals ( World Cup 1 and 8 ) and a bronze medal ( 7 ).Brazil have 2 years now with no participation at the World Cup.No medals for them.This year they choose Fernando Stall to lead the team.New Zeeland , the olders and Rocky Solo.It sounds like a movie title but it's not.I think it is the oldest NT in the Grid Iron , but they managed to qualify twice in the last 3 years.Croatia is the Cinderrela of this group.Hedda will try to get the most of this year.Maybe they will managed to get 1 victory at least.

Netherland , Switzerland , Romania , Slovenia and Turkey.First five teams group starts with Netherland.Two medals , a silver medal at World Cup 5 and a bronze medal at World Cup 2.Stout will try to qualify once again this year.The World Cup Champions of World Cup 11 , didn't past last year main groups and this year i think they want to revenge that.2 consecutive qualification.thymallus once again as theyr coach.Romania and Moran20.After the greastest result in history in Grid Iron , bronze medal last year , they will try to reach once again , for the 3rd consecutive time the main groups of the World Cup.Slovenia with a new and again a foreign manager , paulo187 - UK.Last year a very good job , also under the lead of a foreign manager.Turkey and the restless Kinyas.I think he will have a lot to work in order to win a match or two.

Group F

United Kingdom , France , Portugal , Slovakia , Columbia.In this group we have a latency team , in the person of the UK.And this year with the chose of Phiba as theyr manager , i think UK will be among the favorites.5 times World Champions ( 2 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ) and one bronze medal ( 6 ).They have 2 out of 3 qualifing in the last 3 years.France has this year a new manager.onaam will try to get a new medal for his team after the only silver medal in theyr history in World Cup 6.They qualified last year after a break of two years in a row.Portugal didn't qualify last year , after two years ago they where very close to obtained a bronze medal.Requiem76 is the man for the job.Slovakia has elected a new manager this year.skulo will try to do at least the same good job as Hadar did.Slovakia did managed to qualify to 3 from 3 World Cups in the last 3 years.Columbia i think is doomed this year in this group.I think there nothing that martinroldan could do.It will a miracle BOT team in order to Columbia to win.

Group G

USA , Australia , Austria , Ukraine , Bulgaria.After a break last year , USA choose another manager to lead them to a new World Cup.Belau23 is the man for this season.USA , a NT with two World Champions titles ( 1 and 4 ) and with three silver medal ( 3 , 7 and 10 ).Australia also with a new manager in the person of hosh13.He will try to get another medal after the silver one from two years ago.They have 3 out of 3 in the last 3 years.Austria and once again the manager speedcoremo will try to get a qualification at a World Cup.They have 1 out 3 World Cups in the last 3 years and a bronze medal at World Cup 9.Ukraine has realected they last year manager , Keane to try do better this year.Bulgaria also with a new manager in the person of Archangel.Maybe he could better than last two years , but it will be very hard.

World Cup Magazine Prediction : 1-USA 2-Australia 3-Austria 4-Ukraine 5-Bulgaria


Group H

Germany , Italy , Norway and Mexico.We will start with Germany who had choose a manager from the 4th league.Maybe 17PG88 could surprise us and do a nice job.Germany who has 1 World Champion Title at World Cup 5 and 2 bronze medals ( 1 and 4 ).They have 2 consecutive qualication at World Cup.Italy also with a surprise manager.Salohcin an experienced manager but a manager from the 4th league , will try to break the curse and win the gold for Italy.Till now they have only a bronze medal at World Cup 10 and a silver medal at World Cup 12.Maybe this year will be gold , but this question is always on our lips.Dan Marino and his Norway will try to get out from this infernal group , but last year they managed to eliminated USA , and get the qualification.Mexico and _MANDRAKE_ will try to limit the proportions of the score in theyr favor.But it will be hard to do this.

Moran, please, your prediction for Gruop G?

Awesome job. Let's stop the competition right now. 1st placeI will be satisfied with a win. My old timers have no physical skills lol. All I care about is that Shred doesn't destroy me and I keep it respectable. Extra humbugs and lucosade at the ready. Even promised a free game of bingo if we get some points.

Good preview Thank you Moran!
