After a dispiriting loss to Jamaica, México had to get a win against Haïti to stand any chance of making the 2023 World Cup. Instead they were shut out in the second straight game and will need Haïti and Jamaica to tie and to beat the reigning World Cup champions in order to get a play in game.
Haïti had the first good chance of the game in the fifth minute after a Rebeca Bernal foul gave the visitors a free kick from about 25 yards out, but Nérlia Mondésir’s free kick went straight into the wall. A minute later Roselord Borgella hit a shot from distance that took a strange hop, but Emily Alvarado saw it the entire way and had plenty of time to adjust, making the save look easy.
