52 years of waiting, 90 minutes of battle, 1 historic victory. The Haitian national team made a powerful statement on the world football stage by qualifying for the FIFA World Cup 2026, marking their return to the global tournament since 1974.
In a match full of tension and emotion, the Grenadiers came together to dominate Costa Rica and secure victory against Nicaragua on the final day. Frantzdy Pierrot scored the decisive goal, while goalkeeper Johny Placide made extraordinary saves to maintain the lead.
French coach Sébastien Migné, who recently took charge of the team, deserves high praise for his work. He brought discipline, strategy, and motivation, leading the team down this historic path.
This qualification is not just a sporting achievement it is a source of national pride, a beacon of hope for the youth, and a reminder that Haiti can always rise.
Haiti is back in the World Cup. We are here. We are moving forward.
Let’s Go Grenadiers!
