Dominican Republic team news and form: Unlucky Marcelo Neveleff
Coach Neveleff was fuming after the 3-2 loss versus Mexico on 15 June. His players deserved to get at least a point out of their hosts, as they produced 12 shots on target. However, there is a silver lining, as the manager himself will be able to count on all of his key performers against Costa Rica.
Predicted lineup: Valdez (GK), Pujol, Rosario, Kaparos, Urbaez, Dollenmayer, Morschel, Gonzalez, Lopez, Reyes & Romero
