Addona Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I couldn't easily find the answer to this question: if we win our group and advance to the semis, how are the pairings in the semis decided? Is it by FIFA ranking? Or performance in the group stage? Or some other way that guarantees that US-Mex don't meet until the finals? narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 2019/2020 addition, #1-4 ranking were based on performance in the group stage. Addona 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil R. Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) That's right. They ranked the 4 group winners based on the group stage. 1 vs. 4 and 2 vs. 3. If group winners were tied on total points, the first tiebreak was goal differential, then number of goals scored. Panama drew today in Martinique, so the Group B winner will not have maximum points from the group stage. There could be other group winners that don't as well, but as of right now, it's still possible for the Group A, C, and D winner to each have 4 wins. Edited June 13, 2022 by Neil R.

TOcanadafan Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 It’s so CONCACAF that they haven’t released the procedure… for sure they will decide on a format up that will assure Mexico doesn’t play US in semis. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrstepp817 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 CONCACAF could try all they want to set up USA vs Mexico, but there's a big 3 now so even if they did that Canada could easily spoil that party Kadenge, Corazon, GasPed and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtlMario Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 After making a few adjustments to the crystal ball (from the last prediction) this is a 3-1 game for the good guys. dyslexic nam, Kadenge and N1ckbr0wn 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant that this game is so obscure to betmakers that they haven’t even bothered moving up Davies’ goal odds after his brace, nor did they remove Koleosho from the odds despite him not even being in the country, they’re giving Brym, a guy who should probably have 10:1 odds to see the pitch, let alone score a goal, the same odds to score a goal as our best player, just because someone looked at his club goal tally.

Wonder if Herdman goes with the A lineup again or experiments a bit Came to make a similar observation, they are missing a number of key guys: Najar, Elis, Acosta, Lozano... also unsure if they can adequately replace vets like Leveron, Figueroa, and Boniek. Looks like they are using this the NL to figure out the next phase, but their results against Curacao were very meh. Have to wonder where their program goes next -- their team in the 2020 Olympic Qualifying tournament was really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A short article in the Espanyol section of Mundo Deportivo, then I also saw it online. So I don't know where they got that, but the press seemed to think he was still around with Canada last Thursday. N1ckbr0wn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check his IG tagged photos, someone posted a picture of him practicing with Espanyol yesterday. I doubt he was in Canada just a day or two earlier. Not to mention, pretty sure the broadcast said he had already left too. Unnamed Trialist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I have no doubt about it, but they seemed to think he was with the team. Mind you, it is possible when Canada made the player request to Espanyol, as they are obliged to do, it included up to last Thurs and that is why they assumed he was still with us for Curaçao. Ok, just saw that pic of him training, odd he'd be back here and not holiday. No one is training here right now. But that is the Dani Jarque training centre. Odd really.

I don’t know Espanyol enough to notice the players, but any chance that’s their B team? The photographer took a bunch of other pictures, so it’s possible he’s training with the reserves.
