[THU 14 JUL 2011 – 05:44:30 UTC]
FIFA has approved a change to the
OFC’s qualifying process for Brazil 2014. Where the men’s football tournament at the 2011 Pacific Games was to serve as the first round, there will now be a
first round involving the four lowest ranked teams [as of the FIFA rankings for J
UL 2011], with the winner joining the other seven OFC members in the
2012 OFC Nations Cup. The semifinalists of that tournament will then play in the
final round, which will be a four team, double round robin group as before. The winner advances to the
playoffs against an opponent from another confederation.

[MON 06 JUN 2011 – 02:28:41 UTC]
The
OFC will determine its entrant to the
playoff for Brazil 2014 in much the same way as for the previous tournament. 10 of the 11 member nations are competing in the men’s football tournament at the Pacific Games. Kiribati and Tuvalu will also compete, but as they are not FIFA members, the top three finishers amongst the remaining teams will be eligible to compete in the final round, to which
New Zealand receives a bye. The winner of this group competes in the playoff for a place at the Men’s World Cup.
