In new developments that will have some impact for St. Kitts and Nevis, Concacaf confirmed the expulsion of Nicaragua from the Gold Cup and that Trinidad and Tobago will replace them in Group A of the competition. Nicaragua was found to have used an ineligible player in several matches, thus leading to their expulsion. That means, should St. Kitts and Nevis qualify for the Gold Cup, they will face the USA, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago in Group A of the competition. For the Sugar Boyz to qualify for the Gold Cup, thy will need to defeat Curacao on Friday night and the winner of French Guiana and Dutch St. Maarten. The match against Curacao will be at 9pm at the DRV PNK Stadium in Fort Lauderdale.
