1998 FIFA World Cup qualification – CONCACAF fourth round

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Harkes playing for the United States in a qualifying match against Mexico on April 20, 1997

The fourth and final round (also known as Hexagonal or Hex) of CONCACAF's process of 1998 FIFA World Cup qualification was played throughout 1997, from 2 March to 16 November.[1] It was the first Hexagonal final round in CONCACAF's history.

Mexico, the United States, and Jamaica qualified to the 1998 FIFA World Cup. Costa Rica, El Salvador, and Canada were eliminated.

Format

A total of six teams which had advanced from the 1998 FIFA World Cup qualification – CONCACAF third round (the three group winners and the three group runners-up) played against each other in a double round-robin format in a single group. The top three teams in the group qualified to the 1998 FIFA World Cup. This round, known as Hexagonal, is the first used by CONCACAF to determine its qualified teams to a FIFA World Cup and was used through the 2018 World Cup qualifying cycle.
