Match Schedule: June 2013

June 2013 will mark the arrival of the first teams to the land of the qualified.  Brasil will be joined by at least four more teams as the AFC Fourth Round comes to a close with three matchdays this month.  Four Asian teams will be given their marching orders, and two more will be sent into the Asian playoff round.  CONMEBOL plays two matchdays this month, and given the proper results, Argentina could find themselves qualified by the end of Matchday Fourteen.  Bolivia would see themselves excused from the tournament finals with two losses this month. UEFA only plays twenty qualifiers this month, but that could be sufficient to see Malta and Macedonia sent out of the tournament.  CAF plays two matchdays this month, and while no African team will be able to qualify for Brasil 2014, I am estimating that twenty-four teams in Africa will be eliminated from the 2014 FIFA World Cup.  North America will not experience any such finality this month, but CONCACAF will play three matchdays and pass the halfway mark of its Fourth Round this month.

All times are given in Central Time (GMT-5).
