Qualified teams

Matches

Originally qualification was to be decided using a single-leg tie in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. However, in October 2015, the United States Soccer Federation announced that the play-off would be a home and away series.[4] The first leg was hosted by Colombia, while the second leg was hosted by the United States.[5][6]
