World Cup First-Timers
« on: February 13, 2012, 03:16:03 AM »
So Zambia won this year's African Cup of Nations, which got me thinking about the upcoming World Cup in Brazil.

Every instance since its inception, the World Cup has had at least one new nation turn up (if one counts successor states - if not, the streak ended in 2010), with 1950 having the fewest new entries (England played its first WC in 1950).

Out of 208 FIFA nations, though, 133 still have not yet made the World Cup. With this in mind, I ask who do YOU think has the best chance of making their first WC? My top 10 picks are above, but if you think I've left someone out, feel free to use the "Other" option.
