A cold shower for Haitian women’s football. Facing Japan on Friday at Stade Bauer in Saint-Ouen, Haiti’s women’s team lost 5-1 in a friendly. It was a heavy defeat for the Grenadi\u00e8res as they prepare for the final phase of qualifying for the next World Cup.<\/p>\n
Showing major defensive weaknesses, Pia Sundhage’s side paid the price against Japan’s attacks. The 2011 world champions built a commanding lead in the first half, going up 3-0 before Batcheba Louis (45+2′) stemmed the tide.<\/p>\n
After the break, the Asian side’s masterclass continued. Controlling the tempo and the ball, Japan added two more goals against a Haitian team that lacked tactical cohesion.<\/p>\n
To wrap up the training camp, Haiti will face Australia on October 13 at Stade Walter-Luzi in Chambly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
