Friday, November 13, 2015, at the "Estadio Nacional de Costa Rica" of San José, in the framework of the 4th phase of qualifying in CONCACAF for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia, our Grenadiers failed their opening match in Group B against Costa Rica and conceded victory to their opponents [1-0] with a goal from Cristian Gamboa (29').

Despite the combativeness of our national team, a relative good defense, the Grenadiers have especially highlighted their lack of inspiration in attack and have not managed to equalize the score, against a Costa Rican team much more realistic. The two shots on goal by Jeff Louis were countered by the goalkeeper Patrick Pemberton.

Aboard a private jet from a Honduran company, chartered by the Haitian Football Federation in partnership with the Government in order to preserve the players fatigue from a long journey in a business line through the United States, our national team has landed Saturday at 1h30 pm in Port-au-Prince.

The Grenadiers will train at Sylvio Cator Stadium on 15 and 16 November before their match against Jamaica November 17 at 7pm (PAP time), that they must absolutely win...

Group B rankings :

1.-Panama : 3 points (+2)

2.-Costa-Rica : 3 points (+1)

3.-Haiti : 0 point (-1)

4.-Jamaica : 0 point (-2)
