I'm going to the Mongolia/East Timor game on Tuesday, no real point now they've been dicked by a team below them. But should still be fun regardless.

I'm going to the Mongolia/East Timor game on Tuesday, no real point now they've been dicked by a team below them. But should still be fun regardless.

Timor-Leste are actually ranked 10 places higher than Mongolia! (Yes, I had to check).

[DFF]

2nd legs are under way!

Timor-Leste have already beaten Mongolia 1-0 away and 5-1 on aggregate.

Nepal and India are goalless with less than 10 minutes to go (India lead 2-0 agg).

Bhutan and Sri Lanka are drawing 1-1 with 20 minutes to go (Bhutan lead 2-1 on agg).

Macau/Cambodia kick off in half an hour, and Brunei Darussalem/Chinese Tapei quarter of an hour after that.

Go Bhutan!

[DFF]

Bhutan have scored again, in injury time!

[9 to 5]

Go India go!

[Rich]

I'm pretty sure Vanuatu might struggle going forwards now

[DFF]

It seems I'm getting sloppy here - missed an entire round of CONCACAF qualifying!

Bermuda, Dominica, Barbados, Saints Kitts and Nevis, Nicaragua, Belize and Curaçao qualified for the second round, which will be held in June.

The 2nd Round Draw is as follows:

Saint Vincent & the Grenadines - Guyana

Anitgua & Barbuda - Saint Lucia

Peurto Rico - Grenada

Dominica - Canada

Dominican Republic - Belize

Guatemala - Bermuda

Aruba - Barbados

Saint Kitts & Nevis - El Salvador

Curaçao - Cuba

Nicaragua - Suriname

EWB! Pick a side!

[FestiveJack]

Saint Vincent, because grenadine.

[EddieG]

Aruba or Curacao for me, because Dutch.

[Lineker]

Obvious Canada aside, it has to be Bermuda.

[Colly]

Puerto Rico for me, for producing all the Mexican and Spanish wrestlers.

[Matt]

Suriname because it looks like surname

[Liam]

Dominican Republic, due to having a friend from there.

[MDK]

Cuba! Castro will never die!

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Bermuda, masters of passing triangles.

[MDK]

Nice shorts passing, but they tend to disappear at times

I think that is a pretty decent group for my Indians!

[FestiveJack]

Damn, with a different group Palestine might've stood a chance at going through. Would've been interested.
