TGAA_Star Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Italy miss out on a 2nd straight FIFA World Cup Italians have no one to blame but themselves for their failure. Think about it had they done the job against Northern Ireland in the last qualifier before the playoffs, they would have qualified for Qatar automatically and Switzerland would have gone into the playoffs instead of Italy. But at the same time Italy should have gone right for the jugular and go right at North Macedonia. Where was the urgency? But now this is a 2nd straight FIFA World Cup without Italy. Just goes to show us that anythin can happen. But I think 2026 Italy will qualify especially since 2026 we get 48 teams in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on my math for Canada max points is 1529.00 points. Is this worst case scenario? Meaning, all the top ranked teams make it to the World Cup? Portugal beats out North Macedonia, Nigeria beats out Ghana, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense to Italians, but I love that this is a sentence being said. Historically "Canada" would be put in that sentence, for optimistic fans. For pessimistic fans back in the day it would be too strong a statement. TGAA_Star 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember posting somewhere last November where our chances of getting into Pot 3 are slim to none even if we win 6 games. The major factor that changed for us is UEFA Ukraine situation force them into Pot 4. Kent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Ram Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 POTS UPDATE as of 21:40 EST - including updated FIFA ranking points for CONMEBOL and Jam-El game played. VAR completely missed Peru's goal, robbing them a draw, which allowed Uruguay to qualify. Based on my math for Canada max points is 1528.72 points. Note : BOLD are qualified teams as Ecuador and Uruguay qualified bringing it to 19 teams in. 32 additional teams are still mathematically in. If Portugal loses, then Denmark or Netherlands move into Pot 1 creating the domino effect in which Sweden or Senegal will move into Pot 2, and Canada moves into Pot 3.

TOCanada115 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Need some serious help from Congo or Ghana tomorrow. Senegal winning the first leg against Egypt, but Egypt winning the tie would help us. We need to win out though now, which what Panama will have to play for in the final game, might be tough. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle_The_Hill Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) We do need help tomorrow but Pot 3 is still possible. Here are our max FIFA points with two wins and Panama win over the US. Edited March 25, 2022 by Kyle_The_Hill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghana is not doin shit. Ghana are trash. I already called them losing to Nigeria...straight garbage. DR Congo has a better chance of beating Morocco at home. Egypt vs Senegal could go either way but Mo Salah or Sadio Mane is missing the World Cup when both should be there is criminal but can't help how the draw was made. I'm calling it Senegal qualifies.

Kent Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Here is my updated spreadsheet. To make things a bit easier to visualize, this time I put the teams that are currently ranked lower than us, but qualified to the World Cup, at the bottom of pot 4. Now it's easier to see how many more lower ranked teams we need to get in for us to make it into pot 3. Ecuador clinching last night was good for us. Oh, also note that the teams in the rightmost 3 columns that are crossed out aren't necessarily eliminated, but they can't qualify without an inter-continental playoff (i.e. Colombia, Peru, Chile).

Miche Posted March 25, 2022 Author Share Posted March 25, 2022 Certainly still possible, but now we need two from the following: •Nigeria upset, or they advance with only two draws (will be close) •Tunisia to draw at least one of their matches •Egypt to upset Senegal, but with no more than 1 win / 1 loss or 2 draws •DR Congo to upset Morocco •USA or Mexico to drop into IC •North Macedonia to upset Portugal and also: •Algeria to upset Cameroon, or Cameroon to only win once We'll know A LOT more after today's CAF matches.
