Kelayakan Piala Dunia FIFA 2010 (OFC)

Kelayakan Piala Dunia FIFA 2010 bagi Konfederasi Bola Sepak Oceania (OFC) telah memilih New Zealand untuk bertanding di dalam playoff menentang Bahrain, pasukan tempat ke-5 daripada Konfederasi Bola Sepak Asia (AFC) untuk satu tempat di dalam Piala Dunia FIFA 2010 di Afrika Selatan. (Oceania merupakan satu-satunya konfederasiyang tidak mendapat tempat secara automatik pada pusingan akhir.) Pusingan akhirnya adalah pada Piala Negara-Negara OFC 2008. Seterusnya, New Zealand juga dipertimbangkan sebagai juara Piala Negara-Negara OFC, dan menjadi wakil OFC di dalam Piala Konfederasi FIFA 2009.

Ini merupakan kempen kelayakan Piala Dunia OFC semenjak Australia berpindah dari OFC ke AFC.

Format

Fasa pertama telah bermula pada Sukan Pasifik 2007 di Samoa, dengan gandaan pertandingan bola sepak sebagai pertandingan kelayakan OFC Piala Dunia. Pemegang emas, perak, dan gangsa (New Caledonia, Fiji, dan Vanuatu, masing-masing) telah mara ke fasa kedua.

Ketiga-tiga pemegang bergabung dengan pasukan pilihan New Zealand di dalam pertandingan round-robin pada perlawanan FIFA bertarikh 2007 dan 2008, juga bertindak sebagai perlawanan bagi Piala Negara-Negara OFC 2008.

There were some confusion as to how the final qualifier for the playoff against an AFC nation would be selected. The FIFA website initially indicated that the top two sides from the round robin would advance to a play-off which would determine the qualifier, but the OFC articles did not include this round (with the round-robin winner advancing automatically). Later FIFA articles confirmed that the round-robin winner would advance automatically.

Peringkat pertama

The 2007 South Pacific Games held the first round. The draw was held on 12 June 2007 in Auckland, New Zealand. Tuvalu were not members of FIFA and so would have been unable to qualify for the World Cup had they proceeded to the OFC Nations Cup stage. It was not even clear whether Tuvalu would be eligible to advance that far had they finished in a medal position, as the OFC press release for the second stage draw stated that "nine eligible member associations battle it out for the gold, silver and bronze medals that will hand them a berth in a Stage Two round robin home and away playoff with New Zealand" - implying one nation (Tuvalu) would not be eligible. This question was rendered moot, however, as Tuvalu finished last in their table.

Papua New Guinea, having initially entered the 2010 World Cup and indicated their intention to enter the South Pacific Games, were involved in a dispute with their sporting authorities and failed to meet the official accreditation deadline for the South Pacific Games. This meant they were effectively disqualified from the World Cup.
