USA is currently on the third spot and have already acquired 10 points. USA got 3 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses while El Salvador is on the fifth place with 5 points. El Salvador has 1 win, 2 draws, and 3 losses. El Salvador has a slim chance to qualify in the 2010 FIFA World Cup but their hope is still alive.
El Salvador midfielder Arturo Alvarez will meet his old team mates. We knew that Alvarez was born and raised in Houston but he switched his football citizenship to El Salvador. El Salvador is his parent’s homeland and it was his parents favorite team. Just as when the team invited him to join them, Alvarez made a quick decision. He played in San Jose Earthquakes in MLS before so the US lineup like Landon Donovan knows him and he knows their play too. It was his first qualifying ever and he hopes he can do his part on Saturday.
