Match Day #2: San Juan Jabloteh (T&T) vs HVFC
hvfc.net


Losing badly in the opener put us squarely up against the proverbial eight ball; Trinidad’s San Juan Jabloteh defeated Nicaragua’s Real Estrie 2-1 to be well placed at second. Earlier today, the Nicaraguans lost again 4-0 to the Mexicans, who now qualify to the next round, the quarterfinals; Nicaragua is already eliminated with two losses.

We started our game brightly, scoring in the 8th minute as striker Demarco Thorne struck at the near post to give us an early 1-0 lead. Our refocused team unit continued to probe and penetrate all over, as Kellijah Morgan burst down the left flank twice to bring out desperate tackles, a corner, and clearance before he evaded Jabloteh once again to lob the goalkeeper but the ball rested on the roof of the net. Thorne kept driving goal-ward, and his next effort got pass the goalkeeper but unfortunately the post to be cleared. Skipper Rojaughn Joseph’s shot was blocked, and his header from Delroy Jones’ delivery was sent wide of the far post. SJJ sent long passes and delivered good dead balls from deep, and one such glanced off of the head of a forward to score and equalize in minute 25. The excitement continued but score remained unchanged to keep it at 1-1 at halftime.

Both technical teams must have expressed the importance of a victory upon their units as they went all out looking to win. Our short, snappy passes aimed to penetrate and lead, while SJJ added a defender to the lineup and sent more long, searching missiles. We again dominated possession, Kellijah Morgan was on top of his game to lead the team. He broke through the blockade to kick twice, but the first was saved at the near post and the second chipped delicately onto the far upright then scrambled away for a corner. Thorne, his strike-partner, penetrated the other side but the tall goalkeeper stood between them. Tyrese Williams’ excellent defensive role converted into his more natural attacking plays with passes, crosses and squares.

SJJ tried launching sporadic attacks with long-range shots which were handled capably by our alert goalkeeper, Anthony Bennett.

With 3 minutes left on the clock, our Man-of-the-Match, Kellijah Morgan, switched sides to penetrate and cross to the streaking Tyrese Williams at the back post. 9 yards out, Tyrese miskicked as the ball hit on his left foot to roll comfortably to SJJ’s grateful goalkeeper, who must’ve given up all hope to save what looked to be a threatening ball. Opportunities were missed, but the 100% effort of our boys must be admired to rebound quickly from yesterday’s loss. We played positively to dominate the entire game, a game we should’ve won, but a final 1-1 draw may not be enough.

To improve our position to advance today we had to beat SJJ today, and get more points tomorrow. To advance, we have one last chance to win handsomely tomorrow, and hope that the Mexicans keep their winning record to defeat SJJ so we may get a superior goal difference to secure the second spot in our group. We gear up to go for the victory.

There are 16 teams in the tournament, not 12. A fourth group was added since Flex made that post in April. Originally, the tournament was supposed to feature three groups of four.

The group with the Impact is comprised of Herediano from Costa Rica, Ahuachapan from El Salvador, and Instituto Cedrus, a Mexican team.

I saw the Whitecaps play, but have not seen the Impact. The Whitecaps have a player (#13) who was also brought to my attention, but call me cynical ... he's also a tad more physically built than some of the other players. However, he managed to get Tijuana's keeper ejected courtesy a run he made to the edge of the box. Keeper brought him down.

Sporting KC was warming up when I left. They were about to face Chorillo from Panama (who also had "small" players). I'm very curious about how the MLS squads will perform.

One clear difference: the Mexican squads have family support present, same with the US and Canadian teams. Not sure how much support the Central American squads have, but we definitely have NO fan-based entourage.

Almost all T&T's best youth teams going back to the time of Latapy seem to all had one thing in common....They either played together at a relatively young age, or they were formed around a team with an early start, e.g. the 2007 WC team as U-15s in the Dallas cup, and the 2010 U-15 team that played in the Copa in Argentina that formed the nucleus of the U-20 Caribbean champions that almost qualified for the 2017 WC .

It seems that consistently preparing for and playing competitive games at the earliest age groups is a predictive factor in our success, or lack thereof.

I would say more this.

Remember when SH was asked what he/the team needed most he replied "games". Also reflected in the fact that we tend to play better in the 2nd game of a 2-game window.

Jabloteh youths reach CONCACAF U-13 Champions League quarterfinals
By Ian Prescott (T&T Express)


SAN JUAN JABLOTEH have defied the odds and have advanced to the quarter-final stage in their first try at the Scotiabank CONCACAF Under-13 Champions League.

Jabloteh next go into action tomorrow against the winners of a fiercely contested Group B which contained Menor Tijuana (Mexico), Comunicaciones FC (Guatemala) , Liga Deportiva Alajuelense (Costa Rica) and the already eliminated Vancouver Whitecaps (Canada) who lost their first two matches by 2-0 margins to Comunicaciones FC and Alajuelense.

Yesterday, the Trinidad and Tobago youth football champions lost a Group A top-of-the-table decider 3-1 to group favourites Buhos de Hermosillo in Mexico where the tournament, is being held but advanced as the second-placed team in the group.

Jabloteh opened the tournament on Saturday with a 2-1 win over Real Esteli of Nicaragua, before holding Jamaica's Harbour View to a 1-1 draw.

Harbour View needed to beat the Nicaraguans and hope for a huge win by the Mexicans to advance as the second team in the group. Having lost their opener 7-0 to the Mexicans, Harbour View succeeded in beating Real Esteli 3-1 yesterday to finish on four points along with Jabloteh, but ended third on an inferior goal-difference.

Jabloteh have been the dominant team at this age group in T&T for the last two years, winning at Under-13 level in the Flow Youth Pro League in 2015 and at Under14 level in the same competition this year.

Coach Anthony “Dada” Wickham expected his side to come up against stronger teams than they regularly played against at home but expected his charges to learn a lot.

Jabloteh headed to Mexico with a contingent of 16 players, plus coach Wickham, manager Susan Farrell, senior Jabloteh head coach Keith Jeffrey, chairman Jerry Hospedales and club administrator Azad Khan.

“We are going to try and see how much we can learn,” Wickham said before departure. “It's going to be a learning curve, because some of these teams have already played in the CONCACAF tournament before, while this is our first time going out. But it's going to be a nice experience for the youngsters.”

Our midfield is playing withdrawn from the centre circle. As such, we have ceded a critical part of the field and have absorbed wave upon wave of attack. We also have had some indecision on dealing with wide attacking players.

1-0 Comunicaciones with not much left on the clock.

Watching the Impact now. One of the players I've been encouraged to watch is #15, a defensive mid. Playing a Salvadoran squad that had a rigorous warm-up. End to end stuff with El Salvador having launched two missiles of a shot from top of the centre circle (age appropriate field in use).

And so it came to pass: 1-0 to the Salvadorans. The goal that made the difference was another missile from half field. Impact kpr saw it late but was almost there.

The Impact had a few players smaller than Jabloteh (#7 and one other + #13 who entered as a sub late in the proceedings. #15 was not of particular note during the game. He didn't play poorly, but he didn't have the freedom of the park.

Was reasoning with one of the Impact parents after and he agreed that the Salvadorans "played like men". Fuh real.
Very professional approach.

As a whole, Scotiabank is to be congratulated for sponsoring this event.  On the other hand, I don't know how much local outreach Jabloteh did with the local Scotia, but there seemed to be room for investment to tie up some loose ends.

Ah wonder what Jabloteh feels about that? Nuff football left to be played and they in 2nd. Anything could happen in the matches down the road.

This competition is the pinnacle competition regionally in this age group. If that's the case, why not anticipate the calendar and start the U13 competition to suit a timely determination of who wins ... rather than having a domestic competition from which the "winner" might not be the winner?

:frustrated:

To answer your question: there should be NO reason for him to be scrambling to find the rules because CONCACAF provides all the necessary guidance to each participating FA.

By the way, which U13 team plays under Police? What team is it actually?

Yea Palos that was the closest I found as well. Guess he was trying to be proactive but I was surprised not to find the rules on the website.

Seeker he said the team is made up of players he and our former HS coach, coach from around the country and Police asked them to represent them in the national U13 league. I know even though they were asked to go, nothing is set in stone until everything is official knowing how things operate but the 2nd rounds started last weekend and their team is unbeaten.

Would have been immensely helpful to have stated this prior to the start of the competition. But, the decision-makers failed.

Either way, Jabloteh set a bar for Police. Looking forward to seeing them qualify out of the group.

Third Edition of Scotiabank CONCACAF U-13 Champions League Opens in Mexico on Saturday
CONCACAF

     
The Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) today announced the schedule for the upcoming 2017 Scotiabank CONCACAF U-13 Champions League. The third edition of the competition kicks off this Saturday, August 5, and runs through August 12.
 
The invitational tournament, featuring sixteen of the region’s top under-13 clubs representing ten different CONCACAF Member Associations, will be played in its entirety at the Mexican Football Federation Headquarters, in Toluca, Mexico.
 
"We are very much looking forward to the kickoff of this new edition of the U-13 Champions League, a great event featuring our youngest age category, made possible through our partnership with Scotiabank and the FMF," said CONCACAF General Secretary Philippe Moggio.

FULL-TIME: Police FC 1 ADFA San Salvador 1. Goal by ADFA San Salvador scored early in the first half. Goal to equalise by Police FC came with about ten minutes left to play in regulation.

Portmore United (JAM), the only other team at the tournament from within the CFU region, fell to Boca del Rio (MEX) 3-0 in one of the day's opening matches.

What time?

1:00 p.m. T&T time.

I had a look at the number of people following their game online yesterday and it was never any more than 27 or 28. If we factor-in that interest in the match would have been shared by family, friends and fans of Police FC and their Salvadoran opponents, that interest level is low even if we factor-in access to the Internet and work commitments etc. I'm discounting awareness of the link because one would presume that team officials would have shared it with their stakeholders.

In contrast, the Portmore United match had ~ 70 people online attentive to the match. Because their opponent was Mexican, a significant cross-section of their family, friends and fans were at the playing facility ... I'm inclined to conclude that Jamaican representation online (in the earlier time slot) was more notable than the T&T interest.

Last year I commented that there was evidence of North American parental and family support physically present at the event, but an absence of the same for Jamaican and T&T players ... with a similar circumstance for Central American families. The situation may have improved slightly this year. Will confirm.

Unquestionably poor display. The team played without a midfield. A lot of work needs to be done psychologically (and as I gather is being done) with the group for them to get the most out of the experience of a CONCACAF U-13 Club Championship.

That aside, it must be stated that Police FC has a very professional presentation (appearance of the technical staff etc.). However, there remain administrative and preparation deficiencies that need to be redressed at the level of the TTFA and the Pro League in advance of teams departing for this event, despite it being a CONCACAF tournament. Both the Pro League and the TTFA need to take activist and leadership roles in advance of departure, rather than acting as mere conduits of information from CONCACAF to the club that has qualified for the event. At the end of the day, the product on the field is a Trinidad & Tobago product and both entities should have vested interests in protecting the image of T&T football.

Definitely more parental presence this year. Clubs like Herediano and Alajuelense have mobilized many families. Despite the economic hurdles in the T&T economy, this could be achieved for T&T support of the club that has qualified (particularly if the timing of when the team identified for participation at the tournament improves).

Maybe the ones in charge of grassroots/youth development. I think they should at least present viewing games and other teams to network and learn what the other teams in the region are doing. That's what TD's typically do but we know everything and we jamming still, cropover and caribana weekend.

The top two (2) teams from each group from the group play stage have progressed to the Quarterfinal matches.

The bottom two (2) teams in each group from the group play stage have progressed to the Shield Quarterfinal matches.

The Shield Quarterfinal format was introduced to CONCACAF U-13 Champions League competition this year. In preceding years, elimination from competition occurred immediately after the group play stage and losing teams lacked the environment of additional "competitive matches", although some inter-club friendlies were arranged during the period of inactivity experienced by these clubs.

Police FC have progressed to the Shield Quarterfinal bracket and will play Chicago Fire at 3:00 p.m. T&T. time.

Universidad Cantera Norte players and coaches (pictured) lift the Scotiabank CONCACAF U-13 Champions League trophy after defeating Alajuelense in the final on August 12, 2017, in Toluca, Mexico.

TOLUCA, Mexico – Universidad Cantera Norte scored twice late in the second half and earned the 2017 Scotiabank CONCACAF U-13 Champions League title, defeating Alajuelense, 2-0, in the final on Saturday at the Federación Mexicana de Fútbol’s headquarters.

Alajuelense had not conceded a goal in the entire tournament until the 53rd minute, when Luis Fernando Renteria Farias headed home off a right-sided corner kick.  Four minutes later, the scenario was eerily similar as Miguel Angel Carreon Medel sent a header into the back of the net off another in-swinging corner from the right.

Both sides completed the competition with 5W-0D-1L records.

In the match for third place, Fuerza Naranja topped Toronto FC, 1-0, on 29th minute goal by Angel De Jesus Ramirez Mora.

Historic victory for Jabloteh. Congrats to the players and staff. However, I would say don't get carried away in the moment because sterner tests are ahead and a second victory is needed to advance comfortably.

When SJJ was at the tournament in 2016, no family support was on the ground. Last year there was only one parent when Police participated. As such, it's a progresive step in 2018 to have SJJ return to Mexico with several relatives of the players in attendance. Dahis a positive vibe.

once gain once again once gain once agan, there are NO local coaches or coaches who have made their careers in T&T football circles who are good enough in this day and age. We need qualified and proven foreign coaches to develop our football from junior to senior level, men and women football. Let our local coaches learn from them as assistants. But as usual in T&T the local old men think they can do it, they think they know it all although it is proven again and again they are not ready and don't know shit.

Here's another tournament to test your assertion.

Santa Ana enters the match having drawn 2-2 with Montreal Impact on Matchday 1 and defeated Mexican outfit Guerreros Coahuila 1-0 yesterday.

Most of the teams are represented by players who bear the citizenship of the countries in which the clubs are based - but, there are exceptions. Futbol Consultants from Costa Rica have a player with Venezuelan citizenship, Philadelphia Union have two players with foreign citizenship (1 Spain and 1 Mexico) and Vancouver Whitecaps have 1 Jamaica and 1 China.

So ... no other Trinbagonians on the face of it.  ;)

Philadelphia Union brought the youngest player to the tournament - a player a few months shy of turning 12. On the other hand, one of the Mexican squads and Mount Pleasant from Jamaica are highly represented with players born in 2005. One with 9 players, the other with 10.

Com­ment­ing on the dis­play of his team, Jabloteh Tech­ni­cal Di­rec­tor, Kei­th Jef­freys said his team had on­ly it­self to blame for the loss af­ter miss­ing five one-one-one chances as well as an open goal with no goal­keep­er in­sight.

Jabloteh, mak­ing their fourth straight ap­pear­ance in the com­pe­ti­tion was forced to con­test the losers plate quar­ter­fi­nals af­ter end­ing bot­tom of their four-team Pool A round-robin se­ries with three de­feats.

On Sat­ur­day last, Guer­reros de Coahuila of Mex­i­co de­feat­ed Jabloteh 3-1 with goals from Car­los De La Cruz (28th), Emil­iano Cam­pos (30th) and Gio­van­ni Ale­mon (44th) af­ter the T&T club led through a sec­ond-minute strike from Ra­heem Mo­han.

A day lat­er Jabloteh went un­der to Cana­da’s Mon­tre­al Im­pact 4-1 with Sorin Ziane hav­ing a brace (1’, 30+2’), while Et­tiene Godin (40th) and An­toine N’Di­aye (53rd) added one each. Mo­han again tal­lied Jabloteh's lone item in the 23rd.

And on Mon­day in their fi­nal Pool A round-robin match, Jabloteh fell by a sim­i­lar 4-1 mar­gin to pool win­ners, San­ta Ana of El Sal­vador.

Both Ger­ar­do Con­tr­eras (18th & 20th) and Ri­car­do Vil­la­toro (30th & 39th) bagged braces for San­ta Ana af­ter Lin­dell Sween had giv­en Jabloteh, a sev­enth-minute ad­van­tage.

Last year, Jabloteh was oust­ed in the main draw quar­ter­fi­nals by Pana­ma’s Cl Plaza Ama­da af­ter a 5-0 loss.

Nigel Simon, thanks for bringing this age group into focus. Just a correction doh: It's not Jab's 4th straight appearance. Jabloteh's run was broken by Police in 2017.

By the way, the Panamanian club is CD Plaza Amador - a club has been making notable inroads in its junior age groups and like Jabloteh have multiple appearances at this tournament.
