TEAMS: USA

Required a slip-up by Honduras in the last round of fixtures to guarantee their qualification for a third successive World Cup.
Held joint worst record at France 98, and will need a vast improvement and some luck if they are to avoid the same fate this time round. Drawn in a tough Group with Portugal, Poland and the much improved South Korea, it will be hard for them to progress to the knockout stages.
One advantage over recent tournaments though is that many of the current squad now ply their trade abroad, which can only help develop the squad as a whole and the USA have a good option when it comes to the last line of defence as both Brad Friedel and Kasey Keller have earned good reputations from one of the toughest domestic leagues in the world - the English Premier League.
