Didn't catch this game live. Anyone saw it? Was the penalty call correct?

I agree, the Jamaicans haven't looked anything special. They looked mediocre against Curacao. I'm hoping for a Jamaica win but I see a 2-0 loss happening against a hostile crowd.

This tournament has essentially been about the lesser lights closing the gaps on the traditionally stronger countries in the region but it looks like the regional Goliaths will duke it out.

Okay I just saw a replay of the incident. That Mexican fella dived. Should've gotten a yellow for deliberate handball.

Ticky-tack contact at best - you can say he raised his foot while another player had his foot up, but in real-time? They both went for the ball at the same time.

Haiti should feel a bit aggrieved.

It was not a penalty. Watched replay three times I couldn't understand why they made the penalty call. Frustrating and unjust break for Haiti.
