# looks good
Think it'll be the usual suspects topping the groups though. Shame the Korea's couldn't be in the same group though.

# Weren't they in the same pot though?
I almost went to a South Korea v North Korea world cup qualifier in Shanghai last year, but nobody would go with me :(

It was 0-0 though so I'm not that bothered.

# What was that world cup
with North and South Korea, Iran, and USA; coining the term 'Group of Death?'

# I'm not sure that ever happened.
South Korea and North Korea have never been at the world cup together.

Iran and USA were in the same group in 1998 though.

# Ah cool
I think the group I was thinking off didn't 'coin' the term at all, some internet trawling reveals it's nothing new what so ever:
