Spain and Germany, two European powerhouses, have been drawn together in Group E ahead of the FIFA World Cup later in the year.

The draws were held in Qatar on Friday evening.

Both European sides squared off in the final of the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa where Spain prevailed 1-0 via an extra-time winner by Andres Iniesta.

Both World Cup winners will be joined by Japan and the winner of an intercontinental playoff slugfest between the trio of the United Arab Emirates, Australia and Peru.
