Group F - The Way to the World Cup

Brazil

Brazil's form in winning the 2004 Copa America, 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup and South American qualifying group points to a serious defence of their world crown in Germany...



Brazil is The favourite to take the Cup home, specially since they have only great players in the team. Among those great players there's one that is even greater and that will be causing headaches to the other teams, the one and only Ronaldinho Gaucho. Take a look at some of his goals.


Croatia

Croatia reached their third successive FIFA World Cup™ finals by finishing top of European qualifying Group 8, undefeated and with seven wins recorded in ten matches.



This is Darijo Srna scoring the penalty that got Croatia in the World Cup. The recording is not the best but you can feel the excitement in the crowd.


Australia

For Australia the long wait is over. After 32 years the Socceroos will return to Germany, scene of their one previous FIFA World Cup™ finals appearance in 1974.



The frontline of Australia is to keep in mind, Viduka, Aloisi and Kewell are dangerous players for any defense on the group. Kewell seems to be getting back to his level and that is good news for the Australian squad.


Japan

Japan became the first team besides the hosts to book their place at Germany 2006 when they defeated Korea DPR in June 2005. It will be their third successive FIFA World Cup™ finals appearance.



Japan is a complicated team to beat and where their star Nakata is on,then the team is double hard. Japan is in a hard group but they will fight to make their spot in the next round.
