Blazer appointed Chairman of FIFA TV and Marketing Advisory Board
CONCACAF General Secretary Chuck Blazer has been appointed as Chairman of the FIFA Marketing and Television Advisory Board.

The Marketing and Television Advisory Board is responsible for advising FIFA's administration on the drafting and implementing of contracts with its various marketing/television partners.
Cuba qualifies for U-20 Championship
Yaudel Lahera scored a pair of goals and led Cuba to a 2-0 victory over the Netherlands Antilles on Thursday, sending it to the CONCACAF Under-20 Championship.
With its third straight victory, Cuba finished atop Caribbean qualifying Group A and joined fellow regional qualifiers Guadeloupe and Jamaica, host Guatemala and North American entrants Canada, Mexico and the United States in the 12-team field.
The loss left the Netherlands Antilles in second place, sending it to a playoff round with Bermuda, Guyana and the yet-to-be determined Group D runner-up to decide the Caribbean's last of five berths in the CONCACAF finals.
The playoff round is expected to be in January.

The Dominican Republic will host second-round Group F of Caribbean qualifying for the CONCACAF Under-17 Championship, the Caribbean Football Union announced Friday.

The group will consist of the host Dominicans, Haiti, first-round Group C winner Guyana and first-round Group D winner Barbados.
The top two teams from Group F will qualify for the CONCACAF finals February 14-27, along with Trinidad & Tobago and Cuba, which finished atop Group E.
