As it stands

Costa Rica, 12 pts
USA, 10 pts
E.S., 5pts
Honduras, 4pts
Mexico, 3pts
T&T, 2pts

so e.s. and honduras play each other next, then do any of them qualify?

they have to play each other twice, so that's a total of 10 games

After wednesday's games, they'll be at the halfway point. Again, top 3 teams go to the WC, 4th place plays 5th place from CONMEBOL.

So if it all ended today, Costa Rica, USA, and E.S. would go to the WC (

) and Mexico would play 2 games (home and away) vs Uruguay (currently 5th place in CONMEBOL)

yeah, I believe the Asian qualifiers ended today already, either that or teams have already qualified mathematically.

I believe Japan, South Korea, and Australia are in, as well as SouthAfrica, who qualifies automatically as the host.

No. If it ended today the Mexicans would not go to the World Cup. They'd watch from home.

Honduras will have earned the right to play the playoff. They are currently in 4th.

that was great hustle putting his body in-there like that

That was a gutsy header by Bocanegra.

The U.S played like garbage in the 1st half & came out a different team in the 2nd half.

Good to see El Salvador beat Mexico. Man if ES could make the WC that would be crazy.

Ya they are expected to qualify, one of the more talented teams in Asia but very disorganized. So according to my buddy we have to beat UAE, tie South Korea and hope that Saudi Arabia beats North Korea.

I Believe!

lol, that game was ridiculous...Kobe played like total boo boo...Pau played like a man, defensively I thought we were great...and basically it came down to who had bigger balls...had courtney's balls dropped already, they woulda taken care of business in regulation...but as usual...

The Men With The Cojones Come Out On Top...
