Turks and Caicos Islands head coach Aaron Lawrence expressed frustration with officiating after his team suffered a 3–1 defeat to Montserrat on October 6, 2026, at the Turks and Caicos Islands Football Association field. This final Concacaf Nations League, League C match concluded in a difficult loss for the home squad, which faced significant personnel disruptions throughout the game.

The match saw the Turks and Caicos Islands side struggle after their leading centre-back, Anthony Stewart, exited the game due to injury. Lawrence stated that referee Alexi Perry influenced the contest, which saw the home team forced to navigate repeated adjustments following the injury and three red cards. Lawrence praised his players' resilience, noting, “They fight hard. They give it their all.”

Regarding potential appeals against the officiating, Lawrence indicated that such decisions rest with the Turks and Caicos Islands Football Association president and general secretary. He expressed doubt that an appeal would alter the outcome of the match. Looking ahead, the team is now shifting its focus toward World Cup qualifying scheduled for next year, aiming to learn from the experience of their final League C outing.
