Canada qualified on Sunday March 27 for the 2022 World Cup after 36 years of drought. The United States and Mexico are almost certain to find the Canadians, thanks to their new victory, even if it will be necessary to wait for the final day for it to be mathematically recorded.
With 28 points, the Canadians, who easily beat Jamaica (4-0)are more than ever at the head of the group and can no longer be caught by the 4th.

The United States, easy winners of Panama (5-1), thanks to a hat-trick from Christian Pulisic, are second. Mexico, which won (1-0) in Honduras, remains third. They each have 25 points, three more than Costa Rica, which also has an unfavorable goal difference.
It would therefore take a fairly large victory for the Costa Ricans against the USA on Wednesday, combined with a fairly large defeat for Mexico against El Salvador, to see them climb to 3rd place thanks to the “goal-average”.
This is where everyone stands after an intense #CWCQ round of action.

A scenario that is difficult to imagine for Costa Rica which will most certainly finish 4th in this phase. This position does not prevent Costa Ricans from continuing to believe in their star, because it is synonymous with an intercontinental dam to win a ticket for Qatar.
