Draw
The draw for the competition was held at the Palácio das Convenções in the Anhembi Convention Center in São Paulo, Brazil on 1 December, 2012.
Teams from the same confederation are not drawn into the same group, therefore one team from UEFA and one team from CONMEBOL will be drawn in each group. Brazil and Spain have been automatically assigned respectively as A1 and B1, and therefore Italy and Uruguay were assigned respectively to Group A and Group B.

Famous quotes containing the word draw:
“Art and ideology often interact on each other; but the plain fact is that both spring from a common source. Both draw on human experience to explain mankind to itself; both attempt, in very different ways, to assemble coherence from seemingly unrelated phenomena; both stand guard for us against chaos.”
—Kenneth Tynan (1927–1980)
“To mourn a mischief that is past and gone
Is the next way to draw new mischief on.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“But our old subtle foe so tempteth me
That not one hour I can myself sustain.
Thy grace may wing me to prevent his art,
And thou like adamant draw mine iron heart.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
