Costa Rica sack coach

Rodrigo Kenton was sacked on Monday as coach of Costa Rica after three successive 2010 World Cup qualifier defeats which has placed their hopes of making it to South Africa in jeopardy.
Kenton had been in charge of Costa Rica since June 2008 and enjoyed a successful initial qualifying campaign before it hit the rocks with defeats to Honduras (4-0), Mexico (3-0) and El Salvador (1-0).
It leaves Costa Rica fourth in the table, with two matches remaining, only good enough for a play-off with the fifth-placed side in the South American zone.
Costa Rica - who have appeared at the last two World Cup finals - are at home to Trinidad and Tobago and then away to the United States.
