Robbie Williams and the Village People are to perform at the draw on Friday.

I'm sure there's some Mexican or Canadian artists who would have liked to have been asked ahead of Stoke on Trent's favourite son.

Also going to be a superbowl style half-time show at the World Cup final. Coldplay were helping to pick the acts and have come up with J Balvin, Doja Cat and Tems (no, me neither).

Another nail in the coffin of football...... sorry, soccer.

And who, who and who?

I hope Diana Ross gets another crack at a penalty.

You wonder just how excruciating this World Cup draw is going to be, what with Trump involved, and him getting a “peace award” plus the fucking Village People.

Not to mention being presented by the bigot Kevin Hart.

Couldn’t pay me to watch it. Will see outcome online.

[Kowalski]

This is shameful from FIFA. 

[RicoS321]

Hilarious that Trump had to get a trophy bigger than the world cup one. How can a man in his position be such a fucking loser?

this has been so fucking cringe

Brazil and Morocco. Same as 98. 
We’re fucked. 
 

England getting an easy draw again.

Getting Brazil and Morocco again is ridiculous. But we could still go through just by beating Haiti, so it will probably come down to goal difference.

I’m good with that draw. Very hard to get an ‘easy’ draw as a third seeded European team.  First game is huge, one I’ll try to go to if it’s in Miami which is possible. Work with a bunch of Brazilians who hate their national team at present, says they are pish. But they are still Brazil. Morocco have expectation on them, could be good or not. Plus it’s revenge from 98.

“Scotland will play Brazil, Morocco and Haiti in next year's World Cup Finals.
The draw has just been made and Scotland's first match will be against Haiti. The venue has still to be confirmed but it will be in either Boston or New Jersey on 13th June.
It's a case of deja vu with Brazil and Morocco, who Scotland also faced in 1998 in France, the last time we made the finals.
Here are the full details of the Scotland matches with venues still to be confirmed.
June 13: Scotland vs Pot 4 team (Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, near Boston or MetLife Stadium, New Jersey)
June 18: Scotland vs Morocco (Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia or Gillette Stadium, Foxborough)
June 24: Scotland vs Brazil (Hard Rock Stadium, Miami or Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta)
FIFA will confirm the exact kick-off times and venues for each fixture tomorrow.”

Scotland v Brazil in Miami would be incredible for anyone going. Please let this happen FIFA.

I'm really annoyed about that draw. Imagine waiting 28 years to play a world cup and getting 2 teams we played last time. And Brazil again for the 5th time in a world cup, it would be nice to have played somebody different for a change.

[Jute]

I ended up switching off before the draw. Good draw team wise but shite venue wise. Hopefully Brazil will game will be in Atlanta in the indoor stadium and not out door in Miami as will be roasting. 

[Don Julio]

I toughed it out, Lord knows why. Excruciating stuff. A abomination of an event.
