After the two-game series, the twelve victorious teams from the second round will enter the semifinal round made up of three groups of four that will run from 18 August – 17 November 2004. The two nations topping each of the semifinal groups advance to a final round group of six teams.

This final group will play home-and-away fixtures from 9 February – 12 October 2005 at which point the top three will advance directly to the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.

Cuba-Costa Rica.....

IF the Cubans can get a result at home, preferably an unlikely win, watch for the panic on the return leg in CR. (I'm still carrying a Gold Cup scar. Would love a chance for revenge against Cuba during the BIG show!)

Think Jamaica will be safe. Who knows what the Hell El Salvador can do on any given day?

Good Lord. We're like 5-6 weeks until the running!

Make that less than three weeks until our MNT gets together to start serious preparation for WCQ. Spending about three weeks together has to be good for the guys.

Man, I've just been counting the days.
