That would be a group of absolute craic amongst the fans.

We’ll batter the lot

Not a terrible group, that USA/Aus/Paraguay group would have been ideal
A LOT better than France/Senegal/Norway though
We fit the naming trend in the group as well

The Mexico game in ’94 was a farce. 40+ degree heat and strange officiating preventing Ireland having a full 11 on the pitch. John Aldridge ready to murder that guy in the yellow hat.

Three hattricks for Saint Troy of Parrott. He’d have the golden boot in the bag before the group stage is finished.

Have we ever played Korea before? We’ve only ever played south africa twice.

My girlfriend is Korean…. This will be fun.

Would’ve loved to play Brazil or Argentina, never played them in any previous WC’s.
A lot of Football to be played before we can think about this of course.

Ah Jaysus. The wife is Korean.

FIFA rankings
Mexico: 15th
South Korea: 22nd
South Africa: 61st
Still tricky but could be worse.
3rd place is enough to qualify for some teams. 8/12 qualify for next round.
If we win one game and draw one, should be enough.

Never mind that, who are we likely to meet in the semis after we win the group?

Our final group game would be Ireland vs Mexico in Mexico City. Imagine the craic.

This is very doable.
Delighted it wasn’t Group I which is the Group of Death. Imagine playing against France, Norway and Senegal and of course there’s Mbappe and Haaland.

Handy group. We’ll easily top it I’d say.
Good draw. Also just a fun group of teams.
