Introduction

This was the fifth World Cup held in WE8. The field expanded yet again, this time to 73 nations who participated in this World Cup. CONCACAF expanded for the third straight time, adding Honduras while UEFA expanded for the first time since World Cup II as Bosnia-Herzegovina and Iceland fielded squads. Another first was that the defending champions Georgia would not directly qualify for the World Cup and would, instead, compete in qualifying. In the final 32 were 14 nations from Europe, 8 from Africa, 4 from South America, 4 from North America, and 2 from Asia.
