Haw haw haw, might as well name Group B "The Axis and the Allies". I can just see the headlines now - "German Blitzkrieg subdues Poland", "The class of 1939 Re-unite", "Former colonies destroy the Fuhrerland". Guess we're just doubly lucky that Israel didn't get in ahead of Croatia and into this group.......

Group C is quite obviously the Group of Death. Poor Romania....... I was hoping that Germany would get put in there as well, just to make it a Super Group of Uber Death, but this will have to do.

Germany Poland. this fixture should never be played at international tournaments. expect some ugly scenes.

Good to see Italy in the group of death. Hopefully they will get rolled by all three teams. Cheating scum.

they played in dortmund in the last world cup, and the germans nicked a late late winner for an unconvincing 1-0 result.

i don't think there was too much trouble then.

Hooligans did fight before and after this event and was probably the most captured in media
