    82' 1-2 Haiti continues to defend with numbers. Telefutura's 2nd half replay fixation is a play from ~75', where "Chili" Davies, in pursuit of a through-ball down the box right edge, got clearly clipped on the left ankle, and went sprawling with his feet in the box. Sounds like one announcer sees it as a clear penal, and the other isn't sure.

    84' 1-2 Arnaud controls on the left sideline 17m out, and #8 Aveska blatantly two-handed shoves him down into touch and takes the ball. Free kick is cleared right, USA passes to Davies in the box right, he controls with a tiny vertical pop-up, and instantly half-volleys from 7m -- point-blank into a defender. Right corner is cleared.

    90+2' 2-2 USA passes to Ching in center, #8 Aveska pokes the ball past him to 26m right box edge, Holden runs on and one-times a golazo into the upper right 90. He's 1-for-2 on those this game :D

    Full time!
