Those Africa tables are jacked up. How is one group Congo, Libya, Tunisia, and Guinea. Then you have a group that is Nigeria, Cameroon, Algeria.

Also, although Egypt has a clear advantage, Ghana has Congo twice, Egypt at home, and I think in a must win they can win at Uganda. Ghana has the ability to finish 4-0 and get to 13 points in their group.

Africa's qualyfing system is the most difficult in the world, IMO, not because of the teams, but because of the structure. If you draw an unlucky group, you're campaign can be over before it begins. There's little margin for error with so few games, as well. How do Egypt and Ghana keep getting put in each other's way? That's like the third time in a row.

If not for the structure of CAF, CONMEBOL would definitely be the most difficult. 10 teams, and all of them are capable of beating you if you play badly. There are no easy points.

Agreed. There are 5-6 quality Africa teams that should be vying for spots. But somehow, every single cycle some ridiculous African team gets in and gets destroyed all 3 matches

Yellow card for each in the first 9 minutes. Ref isn't fricking around.

Within the first 13 minutes, there's been a goal and 2 cards. Yep, this is CONCACAF.

I feel sorry for people that don't get to enjoy Ray Hudson's commentary

Is it better for us if this is a draw or Honduras win?

They have a huge fireworks show going on during the game. WTF?

Never change CONCACAF. Never change.

He'd never do that. They might would make him actually attend the game instead of broadcasting from his house.

A draw in the Panama-Honduras game would be fine. We don't really want Panama to win.

The other game doesn't matter as much, but I guess any points for T&T would help us.

Yeah, but I'd like to be ahead of Panama heading into our match with Costa Rica.

A draw would be perfect here.
