i must create 2 new list which contain 2 element
1st new list must contain an element from each original list

Seems to be homework, so what have you coded so far?

i have 2 list contaning 4 element
= 8 elements total
I must create 2 new list which contain 2 element
= 4 elements total. What happens to the other 4 elements?

First when I read this post's title, I thought "this guy is crazy", dont judge me, at least not yet. Then I read the post, and I thought "What's he talking about?", and finally I read the title again, and I thought "What the heck does he want to do?". It involves a lot of things to do an application to predict the winner of world cup. Can you show us what you already have?

The title has nothing to do with the homework, but it gets the attention and fools the teacher. Clever?

It is simpler to use loops. This should get you started. It has an example of using one list to hold all of the entrants, and how to print them using a loop.
