Panama 0 0 Jamaica

75th minute like in the USA/Costa Rica game.

If Panama could nab that game, they’d definitely be in the picture too, I think that would even send Mexico into 5th place.

But if Panama won and didn’t draw, then they’d be a bit breathing down everyone else’s necks.

Costa Rica 3 USA 1 77th minute.

USA remaining games, host Mexico in Columbus Ohio, Sept. 10, this is so we get an American crowd more than if it were in Chicago or LA I would suppose.

In October, host Jamaica, at Panama.

For the record, we have 12 straight wins, so we come down to earth tonight, Costa Rica will have 14 points, a very comfortable position.

So, our 12 game win-streak will end.

But they are getting back into that bad habit of conceding early goals.....can’t have that.

I’m beginning to think Guzan might be better than Howard...certainly judging by Guzan’s performance so far this year in England.

Quite possibly we should be playing Guzan. Yes, I have heard that before. Maybe Howard had some weak moments.

It’s extra-time, I kind of wish Panama could pull this out. But maybe I shouldn’t think like that, these games will be ending at any time.

One of Honduras’ goals was very nice, their first win ever at Azteca in Mexico City.

Great...now Altidore is out against Mexico.

Total lack of discipline...Klinsi better read them the riot act.

Agree... Someone posted this at Big Soccer: “CONCACAF road wins are rare for a reason. A tie would have been a good result in CR. No excuses. CR finished chances, US didnt. Sucks but not cause for histrionics.”

How many teams from CONCACAF would qualify for the WC if they had to qualify from COMNEBOL (The South American Federation)....Maybe 1 at the most.

I hear ya! I dislike CONCACAF -— the refs, the dangerous & sub-standard away-games, the home-games that are filled with fans rooting against US.
