Bulls Abroad: New York Red Bulls' Derrick Etienne named to Haiti squad to play Argentina Olympic team

As promised, the New York Red Bulls' Derrick Etienne has not been forgotten by Haiti's men's national soccer team.

Etienne was one of a small group of reserves called to training with Les Grenadiers' 23-man squad for Copa America Centenario. After hints were dropped that one or two of those reserves might make a late breakthrough to the roster for the tournament, the Haitian Football Federation announced all the back-ups were going home and head coach Patrice Neveu was sticking by the squad he had originally named. But we were told Etienne - and fellow reserves Bryan Alceus and Sebastien Thuriere - would be back.
