2002 FIFA WORLD CUP KOREA/JAPAN PREVIEW

After a long, hard road which began more than two years ago in our
Confederation, in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad & Tobago, the biggest sporting
event in the world begins on 31 May when FIFA World Cup 2002
Korea/Japan kicks off with the opening match in Seoul.
That first qualifying match, which saw Trinidad & Tobago defeat
Netherlands Antilles 5:0, also started the Football Confederations qualifying process in which 391 goals were scored in 125 matches. Three
teams eventually survived the final hexagonal Costa Rica, Mexico and
USA and now they carry the mantle of North and Central America and
the Caribbean to the Far East as they bid to be the first ever from this region to be crowned
World Champion.
Mexico left it late in qualifying for Korea/Japan 2002, earning their berth only on the
final day of qualifying with a dramatic 3:0 victory against Honduras in the Estadio Azteca.
But its the 11th time in 18 FIFA World Cups the Tricolores have reached the finals.
Costa Rica rebounded from being forced into a playoff to qualify at the semifinal stage
to finishing atop the table in the six-team final round. The ticos have qualified for just one
FIFA World Cup finals, in 1990 in Italy, but what a performance: defeating Scotland and
stretching Brazil to the limit before going out to Czechoslovakia in the round of 16.
The USA got off to a blazing start in the final round of FC qualifying, but then went
through some rough times before securing their ticket in the penultimate round of matches. Korea/Japan 2002 will be their sixth trip to a FIFA World Cup finals, but fourth consecutive appearance (dating back to 1990)
But all that matters little now, as the three FC nations and the other 29 teams in the
finals begin fresh in trying to deny France their bid to be just the second country to repeat
as World Champion (after in Brazil in 1958 and 62).
Mexico will be the only FC country to play their first-round matches in Japan. They
were drawn into Group F, where they will face Croatia, Ecuador and Italy.
Costa Rica and the USA will play their first-round matches in Korea. Costa Rica is in
Group C, along with China PR, Turkey and Brazil, while the USA is in Group D, and will
face Portugal, Poland and co-host Korea Republic.

WARNER RE-ELECTED AT
XXIII CONGRESS

The re-election of Jack A. Warner to a

fourth term as President of the
Confederation of North, Central American
and Caribbean Association Football highlighted the convening of the XXIII Ordinary
Congress, held 20 April at the Loews Hotel
in Miami Beach, Florida.
In addition to the Congress, the
Confederations Executive Committee met on
Thursday 18 April, and the regional bodies
also convened, the Caribbean Football Union
holding an executive committee meeting and
congress, while the Union Centroamericana
de Ftbol held their executive committee
meeting.
A look at the key points in a busy weekend which celebrated the 40th anniversary of
the Confederation:
ELECTIONS: Jack A. Warner was
returned for a fourth four-year term of office
in an overwhelming vote, defeating Dr.
Edgardo Codesal by a vote count of 36-2,
with one no vote and one national association absent.
In the meeting of the Executive
Committee, the ineligibility of the candidacy
of Dr. Codesal for the post of presidency, as
determined by Confederation General
Secretary Chuck Blazer, was ratified by the
Executive. That ratification was unanimously

finally overcoming a stubborn

Haiti side 5:1. Costa Rica set up
the final match with a 4:0 defeat
of Haiti first, followed by a 4:1
dismissal of Suriname.
In the Group A decider,
Mexico struck early and often,
scoring four goals in the first 26
minutes. The early goals from
Micheli Rico, Dioselina
Valderrama, Teresa Worbis and
Sulim Quinarez quickly silenced
the throngs of T&T faithful, with
a second-half strike from Rubi
Sandoval canceling out a Tasha
St. Louis goal to finish off the
match.
In the group, a pair of draws
opened play, before Mexico and
T&T took pole position for the
FIFA berth with second-day victories against Panama (3:0) and
Jamaica (2:1) respectively.
Jamaica ended up with third
place in Group A on goal difference after a 1:1 draw with
Panama. Raiza Gutierrez had
given Panama a 28th-minute
lead before second-half substitute Kim Dunn pulled Jamaica
level four minutes after the
break.

approved by the Congress. However, a

motion was made that Dr. Codesal be permitted to stand for election, in the interest of
transparency, democracy and fair play. The
motion was passed unanimously.
The roll call vote was then held, with El
Salvador and Mexico voting for Dr. Codesal,
Puerto Rico recording no vote, and French
Guyana absent.

FCS THREE OFF TO FIFA WORLD CUP 2002

For 30 days beginning at the end of May, the world will be enraptured by the goings-on in 20 stadia in the neighboring countries of
Korea and Japan when the 2002 FIFA World Cup finals kick off, for
the first time ever split between nations.
But the reality that the World Cup has dominated the thoughts
and minds of football aficionados for months now as the finals have
approached, various strengths and weaknesses being gauged, groups
and matches pored over and analyzed.
Since earning their places late in 2001, it has been no different for
the three Football Confederation qualifiers Costa Rica, Mexico and
USA. Now the big event is here, and the three will carry the hopes and
dreams of the region onto the fields of play in Korea and Japan.
COSTA RICA
Costa Rica has perhaps the best chance on paper to
win their group. In their one previous World Cup finals
experience at Italia 90, the ticos surprised Scotland and
Sweden to finish second in their group before losing to
Czechoslovakia in the round-of-16.
Technical director Alexandre Guimaraes was on that team, when
Costa Rica also met Brazil in group play, losing 1:0. The two have
again been paired, but 12 years later Brazil comes into the World Cup
after struggling to qualify, eventually finishing joint third in the South
American table.
China PR won its group in style in Asian qualifying and in another irony, are coached by Bora Milutinovic, who had the reins of the
Costa Rican team in 1990 and the USA at World Cup 94. Third in the
group is Turkey, who overwhelmed Austria in a playoff that match on
9 June in Incheon could determine if Costa Rica goes through.

MEXICO
Mexico turned around their qualification at the midway point of the final round, taking 14 of the last 15
points available when Javier Aguirre took over as coach.
However, the draw did the team no favors, matched
against a pair of European powers and surprising Ecuador.

WOMENS GOLD CUP 2002

FC Womens Gold Cup 2002, the championship for womens national teams in the
Football Confederation, will take place in four
venues on the West Coast of North America
from 27 October 9 November, 2002.
The second edition of the continental
championship, the showpiece event for the
Confederation of North, Central America and
the Caribbean of Association Football, will
also serve as FC qualifying for the FIFA 2003
Womens World Cup, to be held in the
Peoples Republic of China.
Eight teams will participate in the
Womens Gold Cup final tournament, divided
into two groups of four teams each. One
group will play in Pasadena and Fullerton,
California and Seattle, Washington in the

In 1998, Mexico went out at the eighth-final stage in a 2:1 loss to

Germany; their best finish ever was a quarterfinal placing at home in
1970. But in their way this time in even getting out of the group are
Italy, a three-time World Champion who lost to eventual 98 winner
France on penalties in the quarterfinals, and Croatia (third in 1998).
The fourth team in the group is Ecuador, who qualified for the
FIFA World Cup finals for the first time ever after finishing second in
CONMEBOL qualifying, ahead of Brazil.

USA
The USA is looking simply to improve on their performance at France 98, when they were ranked 32nd of
the 32 finalists after losing all three group matches, scoring one goal and allowing five. But the buildup this time
around has been marked by the FC Gold Cup championship.
Still, a difficult group also awaits them after qualifying for back-toback World Cup finals for the first time ever (three of their six finals
appearances have been direct entries). Portugal finished atop Group 2
in Europe a group that also included finalist Ireland and
Netherlands, which shockingly did not qualify. Poland overcame sides
such as Ukraine and Norway to win Group 5.
How the USA does against co-host Korea Republic may determine
their fate as they know the dangers of facing a host country, the USA
losing to Brazil in a valiant effort in the round-of-16 in 1994.
