The 24 team field for this summer's FIFA Under 20 World Cup to be played in Canada was completed when CONCACAF group B finished play. Mexico and Costa Rica booked their tickets by topping the group hosted by Mexico. The United States team qualified last month from group A along with Panama.
Most of the top countries in the world will be represented, but some notables will be missing. Namely European powers England, Germany, Holand and Italy all failed to qualify while smaller sides Austria, Poland and Scotland claimed European spots.
The tournament takes place in Canada July 1-24th and the draw will be held on March 3rd.

The US women have their new star. First there was Mia Hamm. Then there was Abby Wambach. It looks like young Alex Morgan is the next in line of the great American womens goal scorer.
