With the completion of Tuesday's Euro 2012 playoff qualifiers, the four pots are set for next month's finals draw, and there's a pretty solid chance that we could see some stacked groups in the summer. Co-hosts Poland and Ukraine occupying two of the four spots in the top pot, with defending Euro (and World Cup) champion Spain joining them. The rest of the teams were seeded based on their UEFA coefficient, meaning that World Cup runner-up Netherlands grabbed the other spot in the first pot, and other perennial powers were forced into lower positions. The much-anticipated draw is slated for Dec. 2 in Kiev, Ukraine. Source: Soccer By Ives
