    When looking at the standings according to each person's predictions, I found some cases where it would require drawing of lots because all the tiebreakers would be tied. In some cases based on a set of predictions I couldn't determine who the eight quarterfinalists would be. This happened both in a tie between third place teams in different groups and in a tie for the bottom two spots in a group where the third place team would advance to the quarterfinals.

    Here is how many times (out of 23) each team was predicted to win their group (unlisted countries were never predicted to win their group):

    Mexico: 21
    El Salvador: 2

    Honduras: 19.5 (with one set of predictions drawing of lots would determine first place)
    Jamaica: 3.5

    United States: 20
    Panama: 2
    Canada: 1

    Here is how many times (out of 23) each country was predicted to reach the Quarterfinals:

    Mexico: 23
    Costa Rica: 23
    United States: 23
    Honduras: 22
    Jamaica: 21
    El Salvador: 15
    Guatemala: 14.5 (there was a tie with Grenada I couldn't break)
    Canada: 13
    Guadeloupe: 11
    Panama: 10.5 (there was a tie with Grenada I couldn't break)
    Grenada: 6 (there were two ties at 0.5 each that added to a whole number)
    Cuba: 2

    Edit: The eliminated third place team was predicted to come from Group C 11.5 times (there was a tie), from Group A 6 times, and from Group B 5.5 times.

    You're too late for the Group Stage. You can still predict the knockout rounds.

    There were four exact score predictions for last night, one for CRC 1:1 ES and three for CUB 0:5 MEX. Congratulations to kman1456 for being the first person to have both exact scores on a matchday. I'm not going to post full standings again until every team has played two games, but I will say that kman1456 has taken sole possession of first with 13 points. The mean score so far is 7.52.

    Here are all the exact score prediction for the second game for each team:

    CRC 1:1 ES was predicted by kman1456
    CUB 0:5 MEX was predicted by Gwadaboyz 72, MrEleganza, and kman1456
    JAM 2:0 GUAT was predicted by ja2ny and MrEleganza
    GRE 1:7 HON had no exact score predictions
    CAN 1:0 GUAD was predicted by mavericks67, david-golota, and jagum
    USA 1:2 PAN was predicted by grimon77 and Catracho_Azul which helps those two people gain 3 points on everybody else because nobody predicted Panama to win by any other score

    Here are the standings predictions out of 36 possible points through 2 games for each team:

    1. grimon77: 19
    2. kman1456: 16

    It sucks for Canada, but it does help when Grenada and Haiti are in the other groups.
