Samoa earn place in OFC Nations Cup: The last place in the OFC Nations Cup has been claimed by Samoa, winners of the OFC first round of Brazil 2014 qualifiers.

Diamond OTT nearly had a winner for Amer Samoa in the 81st minute, but his shot struck the post. Silao MALO scored in the 89th minute to secure advancement for the Samoans. Tonga claimed second place with their 2-1 win over the Cook Is. The OFC Nations Cup will be played in Fiji in JUN 2012, and the top four teams will progress to the OFC final round.
