World Cup Group Tables - Final Tables

15 Oct 2009

QUALIFICATION DETAILS
The nine European group winners qualified automatically for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. The eight best runners-up go into four two-legged play-off matches (on 14 and 18 November) with the winner of each tie also qualifying. As Group 9 had only five teams (the other groups had six), the eight best runners-up were judged after expunging results against the bottom-placed team in each group. In the event, Group Nine's runners-up Norway were the unlucky team to miss out on a second chance at qualifying.

* France, Greece, Portugal and Russia are the seeds for the runners-up draw, which takes place on Monday 19 October in Zurich at 1300 BST. Bosnia-Hercegovina, Republic of Ireland, Sweden and Ukraine are unseeded. When the draw is made, a further draw will take place to determine the home teams for the first legs.

The two-legged play-offs will take place on Saturday 14 November and Wednesday 18 November.

(NB Teams which finished level on points were separated by goal difference, then goals scored, then goals scored away from home, then by disciplinary record)
