In France since April 30, invited to compete in the 2nd edition of the South Ladies Cup in Marseille https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-27594-haiti-news-zapping.html , our Grenadières U-20, are preparing to play their last match of this competition by facing this Saturday, May 18, North Korea...

So far, for his second participation in the South Ladies Cup, the Haitian selection has had a not very successful performance. The Grenadières have recorded only one victory after 4 matchs and is in 4th place. Remember that the participation of our Grenadiers in this tournament aims to prepare them for the upcoming games, especially the U-20 and U-17 Women's World Cup qualifiers.

Recall that for his opening match, our Grenadières had recorded their first and only victory by humiliating the Panthers of Gabon [7-0] https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-27683-haiti-south-ladies-cup-2019-our-grenadieres-humiliate-the-panthers-of-gabon-[7-0].html

For their third match, Gerardo Contreas' protégés played against the Mexicans, which ended with a draw [0-0] which was decided by a shoot-out, won by the Mexican women [3-1 ]

For their fourth matchs, our Grenadières faced Japan and gave everything to avoid a new defeat, but against the Japanese tactically very disciplined, our girls suffered a severe defeat [3-0].

After these 4 days of competition, Haiti is in 4th place in the standings with 1 victory, 1 draw, 2 defeats, 7 goals scored and 7 goals conceded. The last match is scheduled for this Saturday at 6:30 (Haiti time) at the Stade d'Honneur in Salon de Provence, again against an Asian formation...
