32 Nations, Group E: Switzerland, Ecuador, France, Honduras

We’re coming down the home stretch now – just three groups left to get us all the way to 32 teams. As I was working on these designs before the draw, I frequently wondered what configurations would create my favorite design group. I was thinking it would have a world power or two, maybe an interesting underdog, or an especially diverse color palette. I wasn’t even close to guessing that it would be a group made up of Switzerland, Ecuador, France and Honduras. But here we are: front to back, this group is my favorite collection of the 32 Nations project.

(Where do I see the teams finishing? I’ll give Ecuador and France the nod to move on, with Honduras spoiling Switzerland’s Cup.)

Let’s get to the designs.

Hey folks. I’m in the process of cleaning up, re-mastering and re-launching some of my most-read articles… including this one.
