5 Down 198 to go.

Argentina wins the World Cup. After finishing first in qualifying Argentina won all 3 games in their group then easily got past Costa Rica and Belgium to reach the semis. They needed a comeback vs Spain in the semis after going down 2-1 in the first half but in the 120th minute Higuan scored the winner. In the finals they faced Germany and after 120 minutes were tied 1-1. In the penalties some big saves and some bad misses from Germany gave Argentina the 3-2 win on PKs. Angel Di Maria leads all scorers with 6.

Next up American Samoa.

6 Down 197 to go.

American Samoa wins 2 of their 3 games in round 1 and earns 6 points but Tonga gets 7 points to advance ending American Samoas dreams. 3 games in 5 days did not do wonders for the teams fitness levels. Spain wins the World Cup over Germany with Juan Mata scoring 6 goals.

Next up Antigua and Barbuda

Good stuff! I hope you'll stick with it. Maybe you'll be good enough to win it with the likes of New Caledonia after 100 cups

This is a pretty cool idea! I hope you stick with it as I would get tired of it pretty quick...stupid AD...SQUIRREL!

Antigua and Barbuda started off in Round 2 of CONCACAF with a group of Haiti, Curacao and the US Virgin Islands. They made quick work of the Group getting 16 points to move on to Round 3. In that group they drew Jamaica, Guatemala and the US. They finished with 9 points and needed some help on the last day to finish second and got it to surprisingly move into 'The Hex' of round 4. With a bunch of ties and sneaking out some wins Antigua and Barbuda shocked everyone and got 4th earning a playoff vs New Zealand. After drawing 1-1 in the first leg on the road, they parked the bus and got the 0-0 draw to make it to Brazil on the one road goal. The WC draw was Group A with Brazil, Spain and Nigeria. They opened with a 1-1 draw vs Nigeria the got completely crushed by Brazil and Spain 5-0 and 6-0. But a qualification and a point in the World Cup is victory enough.

Spain wins the world cup again over Germany.

(Still dealing with a ton of player rating drops as I take teams through qualifications. I hope this gets fixed - kind of sucks watching my team get worse with each game) Some players this time droped 8-9 points in overall rating

8 Down 195 to go.

After a long break back at it.

Andorra entered with no hope but held it's own by getting a surprise opening win against Hungary. Then the Netherlands showed up and crushed them 6-0. After the defeat Andorra regrouped and did not lose to any team other than the Netherlands in qualification to edge out Turkey by one point for second in the group. Unfortunately they did not earn enough points to qualify for the two leg qualification.

Spain won the WC again with a 3-0 win over Brazil (the US finished a surprising 3rd) with Mario Balotelli getting the Golden Boot with 5 goals and Juan Mata the Golden Ball

Next up Angola
