Tuesday, September 15, 2026 marked the end of the group stage of the CARIBBEAN CUP DE LA CONCACAF 2026 for Group A. On this day, Violette AC managed to secure its fourth consecutive victory in as many matches played. Rony Attimy’s players performed well against Club Sando FC, winning by the narrowest of margins (1-0) to maintain their dominant position in the group.
To triumph, the Vieux Tigres demonstrated excellent defensive organization, mastering their opponent with brilliance in order to favor a transition game based on the speed of Elyvens Dejean, Daïson Norestant, and even Stay Plaisimond, who entered the game during the match. Despite several serious efforts from the visitors, the rivals struggled to break through the “Berlin Wall,” which includes captain Fernando Ciceron, the defensive leader, Jerry Anis, who was named man of the match, Kelly Clergé, and Mikenlove Jn Jules, an international player for the Haitian under-20 national team, not to mention the formidable Gouly Elien.
Indeed, Rony’s protégés demonstrated their true fierce nature by opening the scoring in the 84th minute of the match, following a very good cross-shot from Mikenlove Jn Jules that was poorly handled by the goalkeeper and ended up in his own net for the 1-0.
Not only did this victory allow Violette AC to maintain its first-place position in Group A, but it also inscribed the club in the annals of the competition as the only Haitian team to have won all four of its group stage matches since the tournament’s establishment. This Haitian team delivered an impeccable performance during the first phase of the Caribbean Cup 2026, showcasing its high-level capability.
Violette AC now enters a new phase, where Attimy and his protégés qualify for the semi-finals, awaiting the team that finishes second in Group B. However, the objective set at the start of the competition remains unchanged, as does the determination to triumph against the competition.
