Seeding

It was agreed by a vote by the FIFA Organising Committee on who would be seeded. There were four seeds, which would first be placed in separate groups:

  • Brazil
  • Italy
  • Uruguay
  • West Germany (Hosts)

Then the remaining spots in the groups were determined by dividing the participants into pots based on geographical sections.

Pot 1: Western European Pot 2: Eastern European Pot 3: South American Pot 4: Rest of The World

Famous quotes containing the word seeding:

    Propaganda has a bad name, but its root meaning is simply to disseminate through a medium, and all writing therefore is propaganda for something. It’s a seeding of the self in the consciousness of others.
    Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)
