CONCACAF HEXAGONAL
Presenting the World Cup qualifying schedule

It all begins in earnest on Wednesday when six National Teams will tussle in three games, kicking off the CONCACAF hexagonal in the final round of World Cup qualifying for the confederation.

The six finalists are Costa Rica, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama and the United States.

Each country will play a 10-game schedule that through Oct. 15. The top three sides will book automatic berths to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, while the fourth-place team will meet the Oceania champion in a home-and-away series to determine another spot.
