Bermuda twice let the lead slip through their fingers as they lost a five-goal thriller against ten-man Dominican Republic in the Concacaf Nations League in Antigua & Barbuda on Saturday.

Dominican Republic played most of the match with one player short after striker Edarlyn Reyes was sent off for a tackle on Blaiz Hall in the eleventh minute.

Kane Crichlow opened the scoring for Michael Findlay’s side in the seventeenth minute, but his goal was cancelled out by Dorny Romero’s equaliser ten minutes before the break.

Reggie Lambe, on his return to the side after missing the 6-1 loss to Honduras in June, put Bermuda ahead in the 51st minute, but Heinz Mörschel brought the scores level after 62 minutes of play.

Just when the game looked likely to finish in a draw substitute Ronaldo Vásquez secured all the three points for Dominican Republic with six minutes to go.
