Gold Cup: Mexico to play Haiti, which rallies to reach semifinals for first time

“All it takes is one goal and we can create history after that,” Andrew Jean-Baptiste told his Haiti teammates at halftime. “Miraculously, that’s exactly what happened. I pointed out that this may be a few guys’ last Gold Cup and I said, I’m going to go out there and give every single thing that I can possibly give and I want my brothers to follow with me.”

Jonathan David scored on a free kick in the 18th minute, his tournament-high sixth goal, and No. 78 Canada doubled its lead when Lucas Cavallini beat goalkeeper Jhony Placide in the 28th minute for his fifth goal.
