Haiti moves its Nations League home game against the USA to Miami
Haiti's “home” leg of its Concacaf Nations League quarterfinal against the United States will be played in Miami, as the security crisis makes a home fixture in Haiti impossible.
Haiti's national team will play its Concacaf Nations League quarterfinal “home” leg against the United States in Miami, after the fixture was moved out of Haiti amid the country's gang violence crisis. The switch underlines a hard reality for Haitian sport: the national team's biggest nights now happen away from home, in front of the diaspora.
For the Grenadiers' supporters in South Florida, the move turns Miami into a home crowd. For the players, it is one more match where “home” is a word, not a place.
