Cesar Garcia in tryouts with PR Islanders
There are a lot of Bachateros rooting for Cesar Garcia that's for sure, because this could mean that the Puerto Rico Islanders could be the ticket to Cesar Garcia to play in the Copa de Oro and Concacaf Champions ligue. Fana already played in most Concacaf tournaments but this could be the year when the D.R could have the most number of players at Gold Cup and Concachampions. Let's not forget about Lloyd whom plays with Arabe Unido of Panama, whose team might clasify to those tournaments too.

El Salvador looses FIFA ranking
The loss of ranking is due to their loss against Estonia, in a game which was played in California.
