Road to Nowhere 2018

What’s keeping the two Valencia’s out of the Ecuador team tonight?

Brazil 38 points
Uruguay 29 points
Argentina 28 points (goal difference +2)
Chile 27 points (goal difference +2)
Colombia 27 points (goal difference +2)
Peru 26 points (goal difference +1)
Paraguay 25 points (goal difference -5)
That Messi goal means things are looking good for Argentina, who jump up to third. Colombia would drop down to the play-off versus New Zealand as it stands.

The top four go through.

As it stands.

Antonio’s suspended. Unsure about the other lad

Poor Peru

Enner Valencia is coming on. He was an injury doubt.

I’m rooting for Peru. Teófilo Cubillas was a big favourite from World Cup’s past.

Enner’s coming on now

If Chile lose 1-0 and Peru draw 0-0, they would have identical records on 26 points and F26 A25 goal difference.

But Chile have won both head to head meetings so would be ahead if this scenario happens.

If Paraguay and Argentina both win, Chile must get a draw just to get a play-off.

Uruguay 2-1 up now @Juhniallio.

USA losing 1-0 to T&T

Do they need a result?

USA need a point to secure automatic qualification. They have a much superior goal difference to both Panama and Honduras.

But if they lose, both Panama and Honduras can overtake them with a win, which would eliminate them.

Honduras are losing 1-0 at home to Mexico.

Panama are 0-0 at home to Costa Rica.

Unlikely they’ll be eliminated but they could certainly be forced into a play-off against Australia if they lose.

All these games are 1am kick-offs.

What @Sidney said, they simply have to get a goal here and tie at worst, otherwise risk playoff which is not good. Costa Rican cunts could throw the game with Panama.

The World Cup in Russia needs the USA for a bit of added spice.

I’d enjoy seeing a playoff between themselves and the Aussies

Honduras have equalised aainst Mexico.

And the US are 2-0 down!

Costa Rica have scored now. All happening in North America.

Acuna is unbelievably shit. Actually outside Biglia, Di Maria and Messi this team is unbelievably shit

Mexicans acting the cunt now

Mexico have gone 2-1 up.
