Grenada coach upset about his fans' abuse

ST. GEORGE'S, Grenada (AP) -- Grenada's national soccer coach says he was harassed by fans after his team's 3-2 loss to the United States during a World Cup qualifying game.
Ali Debellotte said this week about a half dozen Grenadian fans surrounded him following last Sunday's game, shouting at him and pointing fingers in his face. The coach was not injured.
"They shouted that Grenada is the worst team in the world," said Debellotte, who was whisked away by a group of fans who supported him.
Grenada is ranked No. 138 in the world; the United States is No. 9.
"When you look at the team's performance and the result you have to agree that they did very, very well playing against a great team like the United States," Debellotte said.
"It's really not worth it to be abused by people in this kind of way."
