The United States Youth National Teams forum had a link to http://rojadirecta.org/ which lets you watch the games online. Guatemala and Canada are 0:0 in the 35th minute.
4-0! INCREDIBLE freakish goal. It looked like a typical crossing situation from the right edge of the box, but the goalie was WAY off line so the Canadian player just lofted it over him.
Damn i cant believe Canada is up 4-0...but im not complaining I don't think Mexico will be able to beat Haiti by 5...Haiti will also be looking for the win since a tie does no good. GOOOL! Canada 5 Guatemala 0 Im guessing a lot of Chapines are loving this for what Mexico did to them in the 2006 qualifiers
My god, 5-0! Corner kick in 4th minute of stoppage time. Canadian player COMPLETELY unmarked, he has enough time to bring the ball down with his feet, and calmly strike a shot into the upper corner. And ESPN shows a shot of Guatemala fans celebrating! Goodbye Mexico.
lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico lol Mexico... ...Yeah. Go Canada!
Dayum, looks like Guatemala got their payback for the WCQ. I think the 5th goal they gave away which was literally in the last second of the game was done purposely to rub salt on the wound. Mexico vs Haiti should be very interesting.
It couldn't be more obvious that guatemala lost on purpose, lol finally they achieve something. Guatemala finally can play in a real tournament, their games against mexico in which they treat like world cups are no longer needed since now their in the prestigious tournament of the olympics!. Guate will for sure loose all their games in the olympics, and mexico still has a better league, players. Too bad hugo sanchez took over the sub 23, chucho ramirez should of been left in charge since he is the one who got them their championship when they were in the sub17 and knows them better. Selfish hugo, thats what he gets. Oh well, payback is a bitch and the real qualifiers start soon for the wc and guate will have a lil present . And usa doesent get to play mexico i know their all pisst haha.
Which would mean the tiebreaker is goal differential, not head-to-head like CONCACAF used in qualifying for World Cup 2006. If the tiebreaker is head-to-head then Haiti would advance with a draw as they and Canada would have 4 points each. Mexico 1:0 Haiti in the 53rd minute
does anyone actually know what the tie breaker rules are? They are not listed on the concacaf website. shocker!
Mexico won 5:1 but had a worse goal differential than Canada and Mexico is eliminated! Guatemala and Canada advance from this group. Only 1 out of 53 people in the poll predicted which teams would advance!
and the mexicans bribe a few players on the Haiti team and still lose... hahah TIP for mexico next time: bribe the keeper.
If Canada bribed anyone it was Mexico. There was a sequence where they had a 4 on 0 break against the keeper and they didn't even get a shot off. Granted that keeper is a human wall, but how do you have a 4 on nothing break and even get a shot off, let alone score?
Both games where pretty fishy to me. Guatemala losing 5-0 to Canada after Guatemala showed to be the best team in the group, on the last goal for example they left the Canadian player completely alone. on the Mexico game, the referee is slapping cards like a maniac to Haitian players, even when players from both teams got into that little fight the referee only red carded the Haitian player, and added 5 minutes of injury time to the game. There was defenently some wheelin and dealin for both games, which is why they should have been played at the same time which what its usually done now.
LOL. If anyone was bribed yesterday it was the referee for the Mexico-Haiti game. And even he still couldn't help Mexico through.
