Tyler Terens @TNTerens 4h Major development for this Honduras/Haiti @Concacaf Olympic qualifier. COVID-19 protocols were not observed by Haiti and half the squad's test were given to the lab just yesterday. They will play with 10 men and a field player will be in goal.
Squad for the Turks and Nicaragua matches. Les 23 sélectionnés : Gk (3): Johny Placide (Tsarko Selo, Bulgarie), Andy Bordenave (Real Hope), Josué Duverger Vitoria Setubal, Portugal) Défenseurs (7): Carlens Arcus (AJ Auxerre, France), Stéphane Lambèse (US Orleans, France), Jems Geffrard (Wanderers d’Halifax, Canada), Ricardo Adé (Mushuc Runa, Équateur), Mechack Jérôme (El Paso Locomotive, USA), Alex Christian Junior (FK Atyrau, Kazakhstan), Donald Guerrier (Apollon Limassol, Chypre) Mileux (7): Soni Mustivar (Nea Salamina Famagusta, Chypre), Steeven Saba (Violette), Kevin Lafrance (AEK Larnaca, Chypre), Bryan Alcéus (Gaz Metan Médias, Roumanie), Leverton Pierre (USL Dunkerque, France), Simonsen Jeppe (SønderjyskE, Danemark), Hervé Bazile (Le Havre, France) Attaquants (6): Duckens Nazon (STVV, Belgique), Frantzdy Pierrot (EA Guingamp, France), Don Deedson Louicius (IK Hobro, Danemark), Mickaël Cantave (CP Villarrobledo, Espagne), Carnejy Antoine (US Orléans, France), Derrick Etienne (Columbus Crew, USA)
A few changes. Bicou Bissainthe, Ashkanov Apollon and Mikael Cantave replace Donald Guerrier (problems with federation), Jeppe Simonsen (administrative) and Steeven Saba (Covid).
Could Saba potentially return for the World Cup qualifying Round 2 playoff if he's clear of COVID by then?
Are you sure Guerrier is out? Latest from TotalMix is that he's in the final squad (albeit bizarrely listed as a defender).
The latest Haiti Tempo list doesn't have him present. Things could change though. And I think Saba could return in time as well
Guerrier elaborated on why he opted out: His side of the story is that ahead of the Belize game, he asked to get his bonus paid in cash up front, the FHF agreed, and then they gave him the runaround. If I'm not mistaken, getting called up for his national team and refusing to go means that he has to sit out any club games during the FIFA window as well, right?
Unless he takes his international retreat right? And a roster update, Jeppe Simonsen's switch has been approved and has joined the squad. There was noise of Steeven Saba possiblity joining as well.

Daniel Feuerstein @DFeuerstein 16m Haiti leads Nicaragua on Goal Differential by +2 as both sides are tied on points with 6. This will be an interesting matchup.
Boys got the job done! Still have no idea what Cantave did to get sent off... but we'll have to play Saturday's 1st leg against Canada/Suriname without him.
Tough break for Guatemala, eliminated because they only beat Cuba 1-0 while Curacao beat Cuba 2-1 Next round: Haiti v Canada Panama v Curacao St. Kitts and Nevis v El Salvador
Upcoming schedule: https://www.concacaf.com/en/world-cup-qualifying-men/schedule-results-world-cup-qualifying-men/
Leverton Pierre, Steeven Saba, Martin Experience and Mechack Jerome rejoin the group (and possibly Donald Guerrier). Soni Mustivar leaves the group because of injury.
Got a good one on Wells at the end of the game, as he was applauding near our section: "Your jersey, Nakhi! You're not gonna need it until next year!"
I presume not, since the team's here already... Now, if Concacaf don't hear a request from the FHF for a moment of silence ahead of Sunday's game, we'll know for sure how the Normalisation Committee felt about him
Jeff Carlisle @JeffreyCarlisle 25m Despite positive #COVID19 tests for six people inside the Haiti delegation (five players, one assistant coach) tonight's #GoldCup21 game against the #usmnt will go ahead
