World Cup - eleven qualifiers

Now eleven nations have qualified for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Three nations were added to the list last night (9 September 2009).

These were England and Spain from Europe (both with eight wins out of eight games) and Paraguay from South America who beat Argentina 1-0, which leaves Diego Maradona's team in peril of failing to qualify.

The other eight are:
South Africa
Japan
Australia
South Korea
Holland
North Korea
Brazil
Ghana

Sadly for the UK, Scotland lost 1-0 to Holland and failed to qualify; Wales were already out, and Northern Ireland still have a chance of making a play-off place.
