Costa Rica’s boys team is playing in the under 17 World Cup in Peru. On Saturday they tied China 1-1. On Monday, they tied two-time world champ Ghana 1-1. In both games the Ticos led 1-0, but gave up the tying goal after less than 10 minutes.

Since Ghana and Peru tied 1-1 on Saturday and China beat Peru 1-0 yesterday, the Costa Rican team controls their destiny. A win against Peru on Thursday will get them into the second round. With a tie, they would depend on a China win against Ghana and if they lose they will not qualify.
