CONCACAF final round matchday 9 recap
[SUN 08 OCT 2017 – 04:35:12 UTC]
A quick summary of action around the CONCACAF final round on FRI 06-SAT 07 OCT 2017.
- United States 04-00 Panama: Two goals from Jozy ALTIDORE paced the US to a comfortable win in Orlando. A win away to Trinidad-Tobago on Tuesday sees the US through.
- Mexico 03-01 Trinidad-Tobago: Though the earlier result ended their hopes of reaching Russia, the Soca Warriors still put up a valiant effort, taking the lead through Shahdon WINCHESTER in the 66th minute. But Hirving LOZANO equalised twelve minutes later, and Javier HERNÁNDEZ added the winner two minutes from time.
- Costa Rica 01-01 Honduras: In a match delayed due to a tropical storm, the Catrachos opened the scoring through Eddie HERNÁNDEZ midway through the second half. In stoppage time, though, a cross by Bryan RUIZ found Kendall WASTON, whose header beat goalkeeper Donis ESCOBER and secured a fifth Men’s World Cup appearance for the Ticos. Honduras are now level with Panama for fourth place, and with both hosting an already qualified side on Tuesday – Honduras v Mexico and Panama v Costa Rica – the team that can manage a better result will advance to the playoff, with automatic qualification still a possibility should the US slip up in Trinidad.
- Qualified this matchday: Costa Rica
- Eliminated this matchday: Trinidad-Tobago
