This is March, and while the madness associated with the month is typically reserved for college basketball, it'll extend to Concacaf's World Cup qualifying campaign as well. The finish line is in sight, and the region's berths at the fall showpiece event in Qatar are up for grabs.
World Cup qualifying comes to a close for the U.S. men's national team later this month, with matches at Mexico (March 24) and Costa Rica (March 30) sandwiching a home game against Panama in Orlando (March 27). No matter what, as long as the U.S. takes care of business at home and beats Panama, its floor is a fourth-place finish and the intercontinental playoff against an Oceania side (most likely New Zealand) in June.
