FIFA.com mentioned an interesting point: this would be a first time in which both finalists of the previous World Cup drop out in the first stage. This would include even the years in which the previous runners- up did not qualify. Abraço, Luiz Mello

They'll provide useful confidence booster to the Dutch -- Europe's best hope to stop Brazil.

In 1934, Uruguay chose not to participate, while Argentina lost in the first round (the otofinal) to Sweden, score 3-2. In 1950, Hungary did not qualify, and Italy went out in the first group stage to ...Sweden (3-2 to Sweden). In 1966, Czechoslovakia didn't qualify, Brazil went out in the group stage. But this times the Swedes disguised themselves in red and green, and called themselves "Portugal". FIFA.com should ask rss before making such claims :-) Joachim
