Thursday, April 19, following the victory in Nicaragua in the opening match of our Grenadières U-17 against Puerto Rico [4-1] https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-24151-icihaiti-uruguay-2018-3rd-phase-of-the-qualifiers-haiti-crush-puerto-rico-[4-1].html on the field of the National Stadium of Managua during the 3rd Phase of the playoffs of the 6th edition of the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, Uruguay 2018, Régine Lamur, the Minister of Youth and Sports "salutes the victory of the U-17 Women's National Team and wishes them all the best for the rest of the competition."

Remember that our girls will have their second encounter Saturday, April 21: Haiti - Nicaragua (8 pm pm, Haitian time). A win would bring Haiti closer to the semifinal before the Haiti - Mexico match on Monday, April 23. "If the Haitians manage to qualify, we would have two women's teams to participate in a World Cup finals the same year," said the Minister, who invites the Haitian people and fans of football in particular to support our young ambassadors who represent the national bi-color on the international scene.
