Draw and locations are out.

Mexico will have a "home game", just a few kilometres away from their border.

@admin There likely isn't enough interest to have a proper section but does anybody have any idea where we should sit?

I have only booked flights. Haven't bought tickets or even booked a hotel/hostel.

Hopefully this will get one or two more people to join:

I wouldn't worry about tickets for these games, should be plenty. Is Jamie coming?

When I was in Orlando, Jamie to me he would be coming. He hasn't mentioned anything since. @admin

I don't know of anyone else who has confirmed.

Thanks for this. I have been meaning to look up the times to figure out if I can likely watch, to determine if I will return to onesoccer for this tourney. Looks like a yes!

Off field distractions for Jamaica:  might not be a happy camp, or it might galvanize them to a stronger effort, who knows?

Question:  is it just the two finalists who go to the Olympics, or is there a back door for the semi final losers?

Just the finalists make it. No other playoffs.
