2010 WORLD CUP QUALIFICATION OCEANIA

 

Stage 1 of the Oceanian qualifying competition for the 2010 World Cup is based on the 2007 South Pacific Games. The top 3 teams of this tournament advance to the second stage. In stage 2 these 3 teams join New Zealand to form a round-robin competition, based on home-and-away games. This is based on the 2008 OFC Nations Cup. The winner competes in the Asian home-and-away play-off. The winner of that play-off qualifies for the final competition.

STAGE 1 - 2007 South Pacific Games. Papua New Guinea did not enter; Tuvalu did.
Tuvalu is not a member of FIFA and would not have advanced to the 2008 OFC Nations Cup regardless of their performance in the South Pacific Games.

STAGE 2 - 2008 OFC Nations Cup.
