The Groups
The seeded teams for the FIFA 2006 World Cup were announced on December 5, 2005. By prior agreement, Germany was seeded into Pot A, the group of seeded teams (determined by World rankings and previous performances in the two most recent World Cups). The unseeded teams were divided into Pots B-D, according to geography, as follows:
| Pot A |
Pot B |
Pot C |
Pot D |
Special Pot |
|
|
|

|
Pot B contained the five African entries, as well as Ecuador, Paraguay, and Australia; Pot C contained 8 of the 9 remaining European sides, excluding Serbia and Montenegro. Pot D contained sides from Asia and the CONCACAF region. A special pot contained Serbia and Montenegro, and the three non-European seeded teams: this was done to ensure that no group contained 3 European teams. In the special pot, Serbia and Montenegro (white ball) was drawn first, then their group was drawn (black ball) from the three seeded non-European nations, Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico.
On December 9, 2005 the draw was held and the group assignments announced:
