Second round[edit]

The four remaining teams were drawn into two pairings. The winners of each tie progressed to the Olympic qualifying final tournament. Puerto Rico hosted both legs of their tie against Trinidad and Tobago in Bayamón, while Cuba hosted both legs of their tie against Jamaica in Havana. However, the away goals rule was still applied, with the visitors (Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica) counted as the "home" teams for the second legs.
