If they qualify for the World Cup through the play-offs, the Dragons will play in Group B with Canada, Switzerland and Qatar.
Although the Dragons have not yet qualified for the World Cup, Sergej Barbarez’s team has found out their potential rivals for that big tournament if they qualify through the play-offs that we will play at the beginning of next year.
The winner of that play-off in today’s draw was placed in the fourth pot, and by the will of the draw it was determined that it would be in Group B.
This group also includes: Canada, Switzerland and Qatar
The Dragons had a chance to secure direct qualification through the group, but unfortunately in the decisive match in Vienna we failed to defeat Austria in a direct clash for first place, which ended with a score of 1:1.
