Of the 48 teams that will participate in the World Cup next summer, 32 participants have been announced so far.
Norway was the latest to join the list as the winner of Group I. Earlier on Sunday, Portugal also received its World Cup visa.
This brings the number of European teams to five, as France, England and Croatia also secured World Cup tickets. So far, the most notable participants are from Africa, nine teams, and from Asia, eight.
It is worth noting that among the 32 passengers are three debutants, Uzbekistan, Jordan and Cape Verde.
The draw for the World Cup groups will be held on December 5 at the Kennedy Center in Washington.
The final list of all participants in the World Cup will not be known until the end of March next year, when additional qualifying matches are scheduled in Europe to determine the final four. Kosovo and Albania are in the play-offs and will play in March to fight for a place in the World Cup.
