(Do you just mean about the COVID testing in Jamaica) Yes, I'm not sure what the consequences/sanctions FIFA would impose, if in fact true. My ultimate fear is that sanctions are applied to CRC ( ie: fine, point deduction, no fans in next home game). My best case scenario is it becomes a "false accusation", typical Concacaf scandal and everything goes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would either be nothing (if there isn’t a big issue about ineligible players) or a points deduction (which seems like the appropriate response if they had a competitive advantage by fielding ineligible players). I can’t see a stadium ban since that is more fan-directed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see a stadium ban since that is more fan-directed. I agree about the nothing part. The fans banned at home game is quite common ( ie: Mexico this cycle, UEFA qualifying games). It punishes the Federation from a revenue perspective and takes away the home field advantage. I honestly lost track of this entire covid scandal, was distracted with the high of the Canada win plus been a very busy busy work week for me. I am going to do some digging now on the merits... Costa Rica's position below according to S.I.... so that's good, hopefully nothing. https://www.si.com/soccer/2022/02/03/costa-rica-world-cup-covid-positive-player-jamaica Edited February 4, 2022 by apbsmith link added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cblake Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 The Canadian government is announcing today that the requirement for a PCR test ahead of your return to Canada for the vaccinated is no longer needed. This takes on thing off the table to worry about for those traveling. When I was in New York in the fall it was such a relief when my result came back quite quickly, really gave me a peace of mind when it did.

Yep, but that is nothing to waiting for your PCR results, Rapid tests can be done on the fly in 15 minutes onsite. Will ease things up for sure.

Will ease things up for sure. Correct me if I’m wrong, but if you’re double vaccinated, to get into Costa Rica that’s all you need. Don’t think you need a rapid test if you’re not flying through the States. Panama I believe you do need a rapid test Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is 6:00 too early? No..don’t get there too late. Security will be looking at QR codes to get everyone in. Long lineups similar to the Panama game is expected. Expect many to show up between 5:30 and 6:00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
