An 85th minute equaliser from Kema Jack gave Papua New Guinea a draw against Fiji and sent the Fijians crashing out of the World Cup. Fiji needed to win to stand any chance of progressing, and then hope New Zealand beat the Solomon Islands. Things were looking good for them when they took the lead after 13 minutes but they couldn't find another and were made to pay by PNG's late goal. That meant the only issue to be decided in the later game was who topped the group. Chris Wood put the All-Whites ahead on 13 minutes but Benjamin Totori equalised for the Solomons early in the second half. That means New Zealand top the group and will face New Caledonia in the Nations Cup semi-finals on Friday, while the Solomon Islands will take on Tahiti.

And the 75 countries eliminated account for well over 50% of the world's population. Obviously the fact that China and India are both out makes a big difference.

Interesting stat.
India's weakness as a footballing nation can be put down to the huge popularity of cricket but China's continued failure is more of a surprise, as they seemed to be making great strides 10 years ago. The match-fixing scandals surrounding the domestic league have clearly had a massive impact on the national team's progress.

Big shock in the Solomon Islands this morning, where New Caledonia beat New Zealand 2-0 in the OFC Nations Cup semi-finals. They'll play Tahiti, who beat the Solomon Islands 1-0, in the final.
That means either Tahiti or New Caledonia will represent Oceania in next year's Confederations Cup, which is currently set to feature Brazil, Spain, Uruguay, Mexico, Japan, plus the winners of Euro 2012 and next year's African Cup of Nations.

A big shock to some, anyway. The MJ Rankings had New Caledonia as Oceania's top-ranked team going into the tournament.
