Last summer, Uruguay shocked the world by advancing all the way to the semifinals of the 2010 World Cup. On Friday, they started their path to the next World Cup in style.

Uruguay, which also won the 2011 Copa America this summer, opened their 2014 World Cup qualifying campaign in CONMEBOL with a 4-2 win over Bolivia.

Tosaint Ricketts (UW-Green Bay) will rejoin the Canadian national team next week as it continues second-round CONCACAF qualifying for the 2014 World Cup.

Canada, which leads Group D with a perfect six points from two matches, plays at St. Lucia (0-2-0) next Friday and plays host to Puerto Rico (0-1-1) on Oct.

Canada's quest to qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup has started off in fine fashion.

After beating St. Lucia convincingly on Friday, the Canadians topped Puerto Rico by a 3-0 scoreline on the road behind goals from Iain Hume, Simeon Jackson and Tossaint Ricketts to take early control of Group D on Tuesday.

FC Politehnica Timişoara forward Tosaint Ricketts (UW-Green Bay) set up the final goal in Canada's 4-1 victory over St. Lucia on Friday night in a CONCACAF World Cup 2014 qualifier in Toronto.

Ricketts came into the match at BMO Field in the 69th minute, earning his fifth career cap.

The international fixtures for the month of September got underway all across the globe on Friday, but no game came close to the Netherlands' match versus San Marino in terms of lopsidedness.

Playing in a Group E European Championship qualifier, the Netherlands scored nearly a dozen goals as it defeated San Marino 11-0.

Yeah, well, my Masters thesis is finished, just in time for another WCQ cycle, so I now have time to do some blogging (as if anyone is still listening to my mindless blather after 2 years of silence).

Well, so we got 3 points tonight against St. Lucia so I guess I should feel happy about that.

The USA beat Jamaica 2-0 in the CONCACAF Gold Cup. The sides will meet again in World Cup qualifying next year.
World Cup qualifying is underway in CONCACAF. Games have been going all day and there's a full slate of qualifiers tonight. Of course the USA has a bye in the second round so it won't be in World Cup qualifying action until June of 2012.

Team Canada: So hot in the 80's!While this site is usually 93% Toronto FC related - and 7% random 80's reference related - today we put down our Reds' scarves for er... red scarves. The Canadian Men's National Team embarks on its long, arduous and no doubt hair-pullingly frustrating journey towards World Cup 2014 this Friday at BMO Field.

Midfielder-forward Tosaint Ricketts (UW-Green Bay) was called into Canada's first two World Cup 2014 qualifying matches.

Ricketts, who started his season with FC Politehnica Timişoara in the Romanian second division last weekend, is one of 19 players called in for CONCACAF second-round qualifying games against St.

Brad Davis is once again shunned despite leading MLS with 13 assists and having an MVP caliber season. What does this guy have to do to get a national team call-up?

Dynamo Press Release

Four Houston Dynamo players have been called up by their respective national teams for international matches Sept.

With Belize's 3-1 second leg victory over Montserrat on Sunday, helping the former to an 8-3 aggregate win over the latter, the first round of FIFA World Cup qualifying in the CONCACAF region has been completed.

Daniel Jimenez, Deon McCauley and Luis Mendez scored the goals which sealed Belize's passage into the second qualifying round in which they will join other first round winners Dominican Republic, St Lucia, Bahamas and the US Virgin Islands and nineteen other nations into the draw for the next round which takes place on July 30th in Rio de Janeiro.

Later today the 2014 World Cup qualifying cycle will start with the preliminary round tie between Montserrat and Belize. St Lucia and Aruba were supposed to get things started a couple of weeks ago, but those matches were pushed back for who knows what reason. Montserrat-Belize could be postponed at the last minute, and there have been rumblings from Belize about a standoff between the national government and the federation that would produce just that, but Montserrat's team is in Trinidad & Tobago and they expect the match to go ahead today.

I have seen reports on various forums that the St. Lucia - Aruba World Cup qualifier, originally scheduled for yesterday, has in fact been moved to a future date. If you look at the CONCACAF World Cup qualification page on Wikipedia, you will see that the dates of the tie have been moved to July, but the official page of the Aruban federation still lists June dates for the two matches.

On Sunday, St Lucia and Aruba will start the World Cup qualifying cycle which begins with matches between Caribbean micro-states and concludes with inter-confederation playoffs in late 2013. Whereas in previous cycles the first-round winners of the CONCACAF qualifiers would face another two-leg series followed by certain elimination, the winners of this round will be rewarded with more competitive matches and more home matches, and challenged with increased travel all over the region.
