KINGSTON, Jamaica, (CMC) – HAITIAN club, Real Hope FA and Jamaican outfit, Arnett Gardens FC, played out a 0-0 draw at the National Stadium here Wednesday in a tightly contested Group A matchup of the 2024 Concacaf Caribbean Cup.
Both teams created several scoring opportunities, with Real Hope’s Jeudy Jhonson coming close to breaking the deadlock in the 33rd minute, only for Arnett Gardens’ defender Alton Lewis to produce a crucial block inside the box.

Early in the second half, Arnett Gardens nearly took the lead through Jaheim Thomas, whose long-range effort in the 54th minute forced a strong save from Real Hope goalkeeper, Gooly Elien.
The best chance of the match fell to Real Hope’s Watz Leazard in the 60th minute, when he connected with a header that seemed destined for goal, only for Arnett custodian, Asher Hutchinson, to react brilliantly, preserving his clean sheet.
With the result, Real Hope FA moves to five points and second place in Group A.

The point keeps their hopes of advancing to the semi-finals alive, as a win against Mount Pleasant next Thursday would seal their place in the next round.
Arnett Gardens, however, saw their semi-final hopes dashed with the draw. The Jamaican outfit is at the foot of the table on one point from three games. They will look to close their Caribbean Cup campaign on a high when they face local rivals and group leaders, Cavalier FC.
The competition continues on Thursday with third place Miscellaneous Police FC from T&T taking on fourth place Jamaican club, Mount Pleasant FA, at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
