After reading all the comments I had to watch the highlights. Highlights are always incomplete but there was one penalty shot that should have been called, and one that could have been called but is a bit less evident.
What qualifying group is this, can both teams get into World Cup from it?
You sound like the guys on the radio I was listening to yesterday.
The first round of CONCACAF qualifying eliminates 5 countries down to 30.
The second round reduces that further to 12.
The third round reduces the 12 to 6 (this is where Mexico and the US join)
The Hexagonal completes the qualification with 3 guaranteed spots.
In the end, it is 3 of 35 countries guaranteed a berth in the WC. Of course, the American guys didn't want to upset the European's so they didn't bother pointing that out.
It's 13 of 53 countries guaranteed a berth in the WC for UEFA. CONMEBOL may have 6 of 10! Their qualification is 4 of 9 (instead of 10 because Brazil is host) with the 5th entering a playoff.
All of a sudden it doesn't look like CONCACAF qualifying is such a joke.
