After the remarks, unnecessarily alarmist, of Maria Isabel Rodriguez, the Minister of Health in El Salvador, remarks in which she had advised to postpone the match Haiti - Salvador, scheduled for February 9 due to the outbreak of cholera affecting Haiti and the risk of spreading the disease in El Salvador, finally the match will take place.

César Saldaña, the Secretary General of the Federation of Salvadoran Football (FESFUT), has confirmed the go-ahead from the Department for the holding of the friendly match between the Senior A National Selection (Grenadiers) and the national team of El Salvador (La Selecta)

Mendez Florez Carlos Cabezas, the President of the FESFUT, said he understood the concerns of the Minister, but that he had assured that steps would be taken to avoid risks. For him, the match was never really in danger "It was only comments and we were expecting something more official. Today the situation has been clarified".

El Salvador is now awaiting the arrival of the Haitian delegation, which includes 30 persons (players and coaching staff included).
