Haiti U-15 Wins 4-2 Against Israel

On Sunday, October 25, 2026, as part of the FIFA U-15 World Cup in Baku, Azerbaijan, Haiti's under-15 team played their second match of the day against Israel. The game took place at Hovsan Sports Complex and ended with a victory for Haiti by a score of 4-2.

The match started strong when John Laroque scored early on (3'). Despite Alon Abramovitch equalizing from the penalty spot in the 27th minute, Haiti quickly regained its lead through an own goal by Rafael Revivo three minutes later. Israel then tied it again after Christopher Charles inadvertently put the ball into his team's net.

This victory moved Haiti into second place behind undefeated Australia in Group AF. Israel ended up fifth and last in their group after this match.

The tournament features an innovative format where each match lasts 40 minutes divided into two halves of 20 minutes. The field is half the size of a standard pitch, but goals remain full-sized. Teams play with eight players per side, and squads are limited to 14 players total for the entire competition.
