The U. S. Men's National Team qualified for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, by virtue of its 3-2 road victory against CONCACAF rival Honduras on October 10, 2009.

A 2-2 draw against Costa Rica on October 14, combined with a 2-2 draw between Mexico v. Trinidad and Tobago, meant the U. S. won the qualifying tournament outright.
