In a parallel match in the same competition, a player from Anguilla caused the exclusion of two opponents during the game against Antigua and Barbuda due to his exceptionally long dreadlocks. RMC Sport did not provide specific details about the player or the exact circumstances.

Led by David BADIA Cequier, the Grenadiers dominated Costa Rica from the start with a goal from BELLEGARDE in the 9th minute. They doubled their lead in the first half thanks to a defensive error by Francisco CALVO.

Haiti maintains six points in the provisional standings, holding second place behind Curaçao, which also has six points but with a better goal difference (+6 compared to +3 for Haiti). The Dominican Republic completes the podium with its own six points.

Upcoming matches for Haiti will take place in Santo Domingo against the Dominican Republic on October 1 and four days later in San Juan against Costa Rica, both scheduled for evening games.
