Costa Rica soccer loses to country that isn’t a country
The Costa Rica men’s national soccer team on Monday lost to the Basque Country, an autonomous community in northern Spain.
A last-minute goal from Unai Núñez secured a 2-1 victory for the Basques. The result means Costa Rica finishes 2020 without recording a victory throughout the entire calendar year.
