Senior World Cup – Qualifications

The rules which will exactly say how many teams will qualify from each group to the 1/8 finals will be done when I will know how many teams want to participate in this tournament. (so after the results of new elections, because new coaches should make this decisions).
There will be four-teams-groups (some could be three-teams if we can't make all with 4 teams). So the qualifying could be for example:
- best two teams from each group and 3 best teams from 3rd positions or
- best team from each group and 7 best teams from 2nd positions.
All depend on that how many groups we will have

I must tell you that there will be no problem when you will want to play in both Mini World Cup and U-21 World Cup. I talked about this with Hellsangel (U-21WC organizer) and 4 best teams will qualify to the u-21 World Cup without playing in u-21 WC Qualifications.

if you have any questions please ask them in this topic on forum sokker international

I posted it on forum of every country who didn't qualify to the World Cup so also here :]

If i win the elections we will for sure participate in it.. but of course if we will have a new coach it should be his decision

1 question, when the new season will be started? i am feeling really boring waiting for a new match.

if i run and if i win i'd put malaysia in... that is only if i do run... not sure if i will
