The Day After Standings

(great picture I first saw at The Big Lead)

The dirty Hondurans really shook up CONCACAF yesterday far more than Mexico's win over the States did, as their four-nil shellacking of Costa Rica sets up a furious final four game dates in 2010 World Cup qualification.


Trinidad's -- sorry, Tobago -- 1-0 win over El Salvador ensures that it will be at least another two games before anyone is strictly playing for pride. This also means the States cannot take T&T lightly on Sept. 9. With the inconsistent play we've seen, that game in Port of Spain is more than a little frightening.


The updated standings:
Costa Rica, 12 pts, +/- 0
Honduras, 10 pts, +4
United States, 10 pts, +3
---
Mexico, 9 pts, -1
---
El Salvador, 5 pts, -2
Trinidad and Tobago, 5 pts, -4
