Curaç-ow: Costa Rica scoreless in 0-0 draw against island country

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

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.
