FT Guatemala 3:1 Surinam

Isn't Surinam in South America? Why do they play in the CONCACAF qualifiers?

[Metrostars]

The final round consists of six teams in one group - panama, El Salvador, USA, Jamaica, Costa Rica, Guatemala, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago and almost certainly Mexico.

The top threee will qualify for the world cup finals. The fourth placed nation meet the winners of the asian play-off for a place in the finals.

Actually there is 1 more round to play before the final round in CONCACAF. Last weekend was the second leg of the second round. Now the Semi Final round consists of 3 groups of 4 with the top 2 of each group going to the final group of 6.
The 3 groups are:

Group A: El Salvador, Panama, Jamaica, USA
Group B: Canada, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras
Group C: St Kitts & Nevis, Mexico, St Vincent & the Grenadines, Trinidad & Tobago

Group A should see USA & Jamaica to the final round and Group C should be Mecixo and T&T. Group B is a very tough group as Canada and Honduras are getting better and Guatemala is difficult at home. I'd say Costa Rica and Canada will get through.

[Metrostars]

Isn't Surinam in South America? Why do they play in the CONCACAF qualifiers?

Surinam along with Guyana, although South American countries do play in CONCACAF. But because the other South American teams are so powerful they feel more "at home" with the many Carribean nations who participate in CONCACAF.
Ironically, Ruud Gullit, Frank Rijkard, Edgar Davids, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Patrick Kluivert were all born in Surinam.
