US plays T&T in Hartford. Should be pretty straight-forward for the US although, minus the Gold Cup, T&T has played well lately. ESPN2 at 7:00 CT.

The big match in CONCACAF is Mexico/Costa Rica. Although they've been inconsistent, Costa Rica is still the only team to beat Mexico in Mexico in some ungodly amount of time (in fact I want to say ever but I'm not sure).

It's definitely not ever. I don't know their record but they did host a World Cup in the past and have never won one.

Yeah I know they hosted what in '86? Ahh here it is:

quote:
Costa Rica steadily gained ground on their old foes leading to that historic moment on 16 June 2001 when the Ticos became the first and only team to defeat the Tricolor in a qualifying game played at the Azteca Stadium. Led by an inspired Hernan Medford, the Ticos strode to a 2-1 victory on Mexican football's most hallowed turf.


Not quite what I thought but still impressive.
