Haiti Is Mad About Football

Search for:

Haiti is football mad, and in 1974 Haiti made their first and, to date, only appearance in the finals of the football World Cup. And they certainly made their mark. Against Italy, a goal by Manno Sannon saw the Warriors take a surprise and short-lived lead against the might of Italy.

Since that sole appearance in 1974, for the last 33 years the fans have had little to cheer about.

But are things about to change?

One member of that famous "Warriors" '74 World Cup side was Philippe Vorbe, a member of a Haitian footballing dynasty.

One of his brothers, Dominic, is his country's Under 17 coordinator and their nephew, Fabien, is one of the stars of the Under 17 side making its debut at the FIFA Under 17 World Cup in Korea.
