The USA defeated Canada 3-0 in Burnaby B.C., and clinched a berth at France ’98 when El Salvador and Jamaica tied 2-2 in El Salvador. The result leaves the U.S. second in the hexagonal with 14 points. (leader Mexico has 17), while Jamaica has 13 and El Salvador 10. Costa Rica and Canada have been eliminated. El Salvador’s only chance to qualify would be a victory over the USA in Foxboro, Mass. on Nov. 16, coupled with a Jamaican loss to Mexico in Kingston. Claudio Reyna had the gamewinner, and Roy Wegerle struck twice (in the 80th minute and in stoppage time) for the U.S., which will be making its third consecutive appearance in the World Cup.
