Sébastien Migné, the French coach who led Haiti to their first World Cup since 1974, has spoken about his experience at the 2026 tournament. In an interview, Migné, who hails from Le Pian-sur-Garonne, described the journey as historic for the Caribbean nation.
One of the highlights for Migné was meeting Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti. "I had the chance to exchange with Carlo Ancelotti," Migné said, though he did not disclose details of their conversation.
Haiti's participation in the 2026 World Cup, co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico, was a landmark achievement. The team's qualification sparked celebrations across the country, which has faced political and economic challenges.
Migné, who took charge in 2023, emphasized the importance of this achievement for Haitian football and the younger generation. He hopes it will inspire more investment and development in the sport locally.
