CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying
So now we look forward to 2018, Ryan nelsen for coach. Get rid of van hattum also
Ryan Nelsen, whose team has won 5 of 32 games? Who doesn't even have the coaching qualifications to be an assistant coach in the HAL.
Let's blame Panamas loss on Herbert and Nelsen.
Seems legit...
Why is 2014 a write off? Based on what we've seen from Mexico, they are beatable. It's not going to be easy but if there has ever been a time in their long footballing history, this is the time to beat Mexico. This is the worst they have probably ever been in a long long time. Now Chicharito is suspended for the first leg as well? We have a chance. Not a big chance but as big a chance as we will ever get against a team like Mexico. Keep the faith.
and Van Hattum need to go, NOW.
Not sure why everyone is so gutted. Up until the start of the day we were resigned to having to play Mexico.
Nothing has changed.

You cannot be serious.
Ha ha Buff.

It's 2 games of football. Anything can happen. Sneak a draw or 1-0 loss away from home and it's game on. If we do well in the away leg it is 90 minutes of football. Imagine these circustances; 5 degrees, gale force winds, torrential rain at Westpac for the home playoff. In those conditions we would probably be the favourites.

[quote=brettdale55]And Herbert who coaches a team that can only score against a pacific island nation with 25 thousand people and whos teambiggestachivement this year is getting a 0-0 draw against a side ranked 84th?
Looking purely at results, last 2 years Herbet's record for the AWs is 18 played, 11 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses. 1 loss against New Caledonia the only real aberration

I was in the states in feb-march this year and saw some concaf games, we wont hold them, that wont work, they are way
way too quick, we just need to go forward and say, hey we might concenced four goals, but if we can knick a couple ourselves,
then we have an outside chance. But since we cant score against T & T and didnt get a couple against the might of Venture
county fusion or Chivas, we are toast, thats it, put your house on mexico.

Against non-ofc teams, played 7, 2 wins, 3 draws, 2 losses. And only 1 of those games was played in NZ, which was a loss against Jamaica - so away from NZ it is played 6, 2 wins, 3 draws, 1 loss.
That's far more relevant.
Brazil 5 - Honduras 0
USA beat Honduras 6 nil and Trinidad beat Panama 1-0
Is a reasonable chance Socceroos will be 5th team from Asia and have to go into CONCACAF playoff games
Socceroos currently 3rd in their group. Only top two from each of 2 Asian groups automatically qualify
Mexico vs USA at 12:30, should be a stream here http://wiz1.net/channel7
USA setting up in a 3-4-3
Michael Bradley chips the keeper from distance, USA take the lead in the 5th minute
Mexico equalise! USA had only lead for 21 minutes in the Azteca in history combined going into this game, they lead for 17 minutes
Ends 1-1. Hard fought point for the USA
Costa Rica winning 0-1 against the USA right now.
USA 0 - Costa Rica 2
Honduras ahead 0-2 against T&T, setting up a massive 2nd game of this window vs the USA. Both will be level on points in the 3rd place spot
Also Panama are at home to T&T. The Yanks could be out of the top 4 by the end of the next matchday.
I love that US are stinking up the joint
Currently 0-1 down against Honduras in a massive game
Now 1-1.
Finishes 1-1. Still if Panama beat lowly Trinidad later today, USA will lie 4th
Dream Australia v US playoff possibility is still alive.
HT Mexico 1 Costa Rica 0 (1st & 2nd of the table)
HT Panama 1 Trinidad & Tobago 0 - stays that way Panama will jump to 3rd above both USA & Honduras
FT Mexico 1 Costa Rica 1 (Mexico qualified, CR virtually now qualified)
FT Panama 3 Trinidad & Tobago 0 - Panama jumps to 3rd above both USA & Honduras.
Next round the States play Panama at home (big game) & Trinidad away.
USA 4-0 up over Panama & should be safely into the WC now
They need to get something out of their last game away to bottom team Trinidad & Tobago to guarantee automatic qualification.
Failing that both Panama (2 pts behind) and Honduras (3 pts behind with game in hand - play Costa Rica tomorrow) could overtake them, and slip into 3rd - and automatically off to Russia.
I'm sure Socceroos keeping a watchful eye on events.
H/T
Honduras 1 2 Mexico
Panama 0 1 Costa Rica
Trinidad & Tobago 2 0 USA
As stands:
Panama 4th ( v Aus)
C'mon Panama!!
Latest (60 mins)
Honduras 2 2 Mexico
Panama 1 1 Costa Rica
Trinidad & Tobago 2 1 USA
Honduras go 3-2 up
USA 4th (v Aus)
10 minutes left and its still Aussie vs USA
