Superliga 2008: Players from Outside of North America

Here's an official description of the SuperLiga tournament from superliga2008.com.

SuperLiga™, a premier tournament that pits the best of the United States against the best of Mexico, returns with its second edition to award the heftiest winner’s purse in North American soccer history.

Being that it is a "North American" tournament, I thought it would be interesting to look at which players on the club rosters in Superliga are not originally from CONCACAF countries.
