Here are the groups!

The eight groups for the World Cup 2010 were drawn this morning in South Africa. Australia is in Group D and has drawn the Germans, the Serbs and the Ghanains. That's another tough ask, though last time we did have Brazil. Muchly relieved we don't this time but the Germans are tournament specialists and Serbia won their group ahead of France.

Group G has been designated the 'group of death' and Group C seems to have the lightest load, so to speak. New Zealand have a big job ahead in Group F, where the opposition is uniformly strong.

Group A: South Africa, Mexico, Uruguay, France

Group B: Argentina, South Korea, Nigeria, Greece

Group C: England, United States, Algeria, Slovenia

Group D: Germany, Australia, Ghana, Serbia

Group E: Netherlands, Japan, Cameroon, Denmark

Group F: Italy, New Zealand, Paraguay, Slovakia

Group G: Brazil, North Korea, Ivory Coast, Portugal

Group H: Spain, Honduras, Chile, Switzerland.
