Costa Rica’s men’s national soccer team tied Curaçao, 0-0, on Sunday night at Estadio Alejandro Morera Soto in Alajuela.

The Nations League result complicates La Sele’s path to the regional tournament semifinals. Costa Rica has drawn its first two matches of group play, and to advance it must achieve positive results next month when it hosts Haiti and travels to Curaçao.

Here are first-half highlights via Teletica:

Curaçao and Costa Rica played a relatively listless second half — benefiting the Caribbean country, which is on the verge of surprising CONCACAF by reaching the Nations League semifinals.
