Chile could be kicked out of the 2010 World Cup unless club side Rangers drops a court case contesting its demotion to the second division of the national soccer league.

Conmebol, the governing body of South American soccer says it was notified by FIFA about the possible sanction.

Rangers were deducted three points for using six foreign players (the limit is five) in a league match on November 8, a decision that cost them relegation to the second division.
