uruguay playing champagne football now

Yanks and Mexicans going at it in Colombus Ohio.
Mexicans need to not lose, or will be in serious trouble to qualify.

They say if Mexico loses it will hurt the US economy much harder than if they Yanks don’t make it to Brasil…

Yanks 1-0 up, Eddie Johnson free header off a corner. Jesus that was something woefull from the Mexican goalie and defense.

Costa Rica 1-0 up against Jamaica.
If that and scoreline in the US v Mex game hold up then both the Ticos and the Yanks are through to Brasil.

Donavan puts US 2-0 up… Mexico completely hopeless at the back.

Would be strange to see a World Cup without the Mexicans there.

US gets a penalty 3min50sec into the 4 minutes of injury time… Demspey blasts it a mile wide and misses a chance to really rub salt in the wounds of El Tri.

Jamaica tie it up in Kingston, but Costa Rica, and the US, will still qualify for Brasil tonight if Honduras, who are 1-0 up, beat Panama.

Put the champagne on hold… Panama tie it up against Honduras in Panama City.
Incredible scenes

Other way around, Honduras at home in Tegucigalpa, and beating Panama 2-1 with 90 minutes up.

Incredible scenes, Chen ties it up for Panama in injury time… 2-2

Ends 2-2 in tegucigalpa…

Costa Rica and US have qualified.

Panama did Mexico a big favour there.
Honduras in 3rd auto qualifying spot, 3pts clear of Mexico and Panama with 2 games to play.
4th spot gets to play New Zealand for the last seat at the WC table.

Paulo Wanchope was smiling somewhere last night :clap:

Whats happened Colombia? I thought they were going to win the WC?

o_O They are second in their qualifying group from which 4 teams qualify automatically.

You didn’t mistakenly think Colombia was in the North American Qualifying did you? Now that would be embarrassing :oops:

I was referring to them being beaten by Uruguay last night which was mentioned a few posts above the North American Qualifying posts. Someone also mentioned their defenders being rubbish - not what I’d expect from the World Cup Champions elect.

They only need one point from there last two matches to go through, and may not even need that depending on other results. In fairness that’s not bad going.

I see Spain are set to call up Diego Costa. Is Scolari a retard? He is arguably the best striker in Europe at this moment and Brazil are relying on the likes of Fred and Jo and ignoring this guy.
