TT 1 vs USA 1
USA down to 10 men sending off of Dest,USA goal scored after 29 mins and TT 41 minutes. I have to say that this TT team have seen steady progress, and TBH they look like being able to compare with some of our best teams of the past given more time.

Best result for many years beating the 10th best team in the world,so close but that sending off has blocked our chances and playing with 10 men soured our chances.We still have a chance of playing in the COPA AMERICA,may have to play CR.
They have played like Warriors in both matches and against one of the best teams in the world,BRAVO.

You are aware of that improvement i also noticed it since we went to Jamaica and played 2 friendlies,I also like Angus Eve but it seems like no one on the TT Forum wants him,they think he's is useless.I have liked him from day one,I would like to hear their response now.I sometimes think some ah these "know all"don't know shyte bout football,me wah fi hear dem chat now.big grin

followed the matches in Yard but not looked at TNT since. Nice, nice result.

News feeds said it was an almost empty stadium!?!

Always nice to beat the US
Pity, the result could have gone another way, as we held off for so long in the first leg.

Big win…congrats to the Soca Warriors big grin

It goes to show how crucial that red card in the 1st leg was…at least a draw was on the cards which would have meant that the Warriors would have advanced with the home win

The sendoff of Dest is the most unnecessary pettiest one ever seen. USA football officials should ban Dest for life. Man kicked away ball and cursed referee needlessly with USA leading and in full control of the game. Stupidity at its height cause the Yanks a game they could have easily won. Lucky for them they still advance, and T&T gets watch finals on tv.

Whatever makes you boldly predict USA would have easily won,TT took them to within 8 minutes of normal time with the scores 0-0,playing with 10 men,and the sending off was so wrong seeing what the first Yellow was.The match in POS last night was close from the start TT was playing and matching USA ,yes,USA scored first but we also had a couple close chances,furthermore,Eve picked an attacking team unlike the team he used in Texas, and it showed,we were equal to USA before the sending off of Dest,and they were lucky to get away with a 1-2 loss.In case you didn't notice this TT team is steadily improving.

Thanks man I suspected he was Bajan with some of his cricket posts,I should ask him his interest in football,probably only to diss Trinidad and Tobago.

Peeps the trini team looked solid in both games v Yanks. The speedy young front runner with the 'fro is one to watch. The big midfielder who almost tore off the yank goalie wrists with the 2nd goal pile driver is a dangerous player. The Yanks team was 2nd string without stars Pulicic, Weah etc. Tits produce decent ballers on regional and central American level. USA is a bridge too far. Celebrate your victory last night,
