After qualifying for its first World Cup in any category, the Dominican Republic is one game away from qualifying for the Olympic Games, will it make it?

Teams such as Mexico, Costa Rica and the United States or Honduras will be left out of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, which is one of the biggest blows that CONCACAF will suffer.

If there is one man that Guatemala is in the next U-20 World Cup, it is thanks to goalkeeper Jorge Moreno, who saved three of the five penalties that Mexico took and was the star player, a situation that could be repeated this Friday, either in regular time or in the penalty kicks.

Ángel Montes De Oca was the hero in the quarterfinal round, scoring the only goal to defeat Jamaica, and was also part of the scorers in the epic 5-4 victory over El Salvador.

The winner of the game between Guatemala and the Dominican Republic will face the winner of the game between the United States and host Honduras in the grand final.

After eliminating Canada and Mexico in penalty kicks, teams that were favorites to stay alive, Guatemala, with a Mexican coach, comes to this game with everything to win and nothing to lose, remembering that the winner, in addition to being in the final, will qualify for the France 2024 Olympic Games.

One of the pleasant sensations in this championship has been the Dominican Republic, which qualified directly to the Round of 16 and managed to overcome El Salvador and Jamaica to reach the first U-20 World Cup in its history, but also the first qualification in the history of a World Cup in any category.

The Dominican Republic vs Guatemala match will be played at the Morazan Stadium, in San Pedro Sula, Honduras. The kick-off is scheduled at 18:00 pm ET.
