Haiti Beats Dominican Republic 4-1 in Packed Félix Sánchez Stadium
Les Grenadiers take control of Group A in the Concacaf Nations League as Wilson Isidor scores twice before a sold-out crowd in Santo Domingo.
Haiti's national football team defeated the Dominican Republic 4-1 on Thursday night in a Concacaf Nations League Group A match played before a capacity crowd at the Estadio Olímpico Félix Sánchez in Santo Domingo, according to hoy.com.do and dominicanoshoy.com. The result moved Haiti to the top of Group A with nine points, while the Dominican Republic remained on six points with a 2-1 record. Haiti opened the scoring in the ninth minute through a standout play by Deedson Loocius. In the second half, Wilson Isidor added a goal with a header, and the Sunderland forward finished the night with two goals, Les Grenadiers' most dangerous attacker. The Dominican Republic responded in the 55th minute with a goal by Dorny Romero. Haiti, now coached by Spaniard David Badía following the 2026 World Cup, extended a winning run that previously included victories over Trinidad and Tobago and Costa Rica. The match, the 16th meeting between the two sides since 1967, drew an enormous turnout, with the stadium sold out. The Dominican Republic, led by Argentine coach Marcelo Neveleff, must now seek a favorable result in Managua against Nicaragua on Sunday, October 4, to keep its advancement hopes alive.
