How does the World Cup work? Once each team wins in there group how is it decided who they play next?
These are my choice for the winners, how is it decided who these teams will play next, does the team in Group A still play each other or do they face off another group? Group A Winners Costa Rica Ecuador Group B Paraguay England Group C Serbia and Montengro Argentina Group D Portugal Mexico Group E USA Czech Republic Group F Brazil Japan Group G Korean Republic Togo Group H Ukraine Tunisia I meant switerland and not togo

after the top two teams from each group are decided (by playing each team in the group and the two teams with the most points, 3 for a win, 1 for a tie and goal differential) then it is predetermined which group plays which in the single elimination round. Each group winner plays a team that finished 2nd in it's group. For a complete list of the group matchings go to this website: http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/w/bracket.html
