St Kitts and Nevis,discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1493 has a FIFA ranking of 134.
America,which was discovered by him one year earlier than that,has a FIFA ranking of 11.
That is why USA won the game 6-0 (which included a hat trick by Jesus Ferreira)
St Kitts was originally named St Christopher by Columbus after his patron saint.It got shortened to St Kitts a bit later by folks who found Christopher too long to say. And Nevis is named Nevis from Columbus’s description of the clouds atop Nevis Peak as las nieves, or “the snows,” when he sighted the island.
St Kitts and Nevis are now,alas,eliminated from the CONCOCAF Gold Cup and their team will pack up their bags and return to paradise.
