Away games in Central America tend to have very choppy play with a lot of diving and time wasting by the opposition. Often accompanied by shady refereeing. Away crowds are very hostile (less so during this last window) with lots of stuff thrown from the stands at away teams such as bags of piss. Plus the heat and humidity can be difficult.
The goal Atiba scored was one of the most CONCACAF goals you'll ever see, and one that no one would have predicted in 100 years. Those type of goals usually go in on Canada's net, not the opposition.
