This is what our final round should look like.

Cuba(seed)
Barbados
Guadeloupe
T&T.

I am hoping that SVG can beat out Guad for second in group 9 because we get no Fifa points for playing Guad. Right now points are important for WC 2018 seeding.

If SVG win, we will play Martinique. The result doesnt really help.. We will still be playing a Fr department. Unless Guade beat Curacao.

Curacao 1- 0 Guadelope

This is good for us. I would rather see TT play Curacao instead of Guadelope. GUadelope is a good side. They have a handful of French pros.

That, I agree is a draw we would prefer, However, no room to slack off Warriors. This CFU final is higher stakes then ever before!
At stake:
1. CFU championship bragging rights.
2. Money for the TTFA or other federations.
3. Gold Cup qualification. Big deal.
4. Copa America participation. Big effin' deal.
5. Massive boost to the local football programs.
6. More contracts for local players.
7. Full stands again in apathetic T&T.

Good draw for us but we still ended up with a none Fifa team in our group. I see Jam and Haiti advancing from 1st. group. T&T and Cuba from 2nd. with A&B getting 5th. but loosing to Honduras for final GC spot.

Jones wants to end T&T CFU Cup drought
By Nigel Simon (T&T Guardian)
Published: Tuesday, October 14, 2014


Cardiff City striker Kenwyne Jones is focused on the Soca Warriors ending a 13-year title drought when the 18th Caribbean Football Union Cup Finals comes off in Montego Bay, Jamaica from Novermber 10-17.

In the eight-team finals, the Soca Warriors, record eight-time champions with the last being in 2001, will do battle in Pool A along defending champion Cuba, Curacao and French Guiana while Pool A will feature three former winners in Haiti (2007), Jamaica (1991, 1998, 2005, 2008, 2010), Martinique (1993) and current top ranked CFU team, Antigua & Barbuda.

In Jamaica the top teams of Groups A and B will contest the final while the runners-up of each group will compete in the third and fourth place playoff.

All four teams competing on the final day will also qualify for next year’s Concacaf Gold Cup while there is also the added incentive that the CFU champions will compete at the 2016 Copa America, against the best of South America.

The best third-place team from CFU (according to group stage results) will also have a chance to qualify for the Concacaf Gold Cup via a qualification playoff, against Honduras, the 2014 Copa Centroamericana fifth-placed team.

And speaking after setting up striker partner Kevin Molino to net the lone goal in a 1-0 win over Antigua & Barbuda in their CFU Cup semifinal round Group Seven decider at the Ato Boldon Stadium, Couva on Sunday night, Jones when quizzed about the possibility of facing South American opposition responded, “We have a lot to worry about before the Copa America.”

“Yes the Copa America is an added prize but it’s about time T&T win the Caribbean Cup again.”

The last time T&T captured the title was on May 25, 2001 on home via 3-0 win over Haiti at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Mucurapo with goals from Dale Saunders, Brent Rahim and Arnold Dwarika.

At Couva on Sunday, 24-year-old Orlando City striker netted his fourth goal in three matches to make certain the Stephen Hart-coached Soca Warriors ended as group winners with maximum nine points, five more than its opponent who took second ahead of Dominican Republic due to a better goal-difference.

Scorer of a hat-trick against Dominican Republic in Wednesday’s 6-1 win before missing Friday’s 2-0 win against St Lucia with a slight knock, Molino held his composure in the area in the 45th minute to drive the ball past Antigua and Barbuda goalkeeper Brentton Muhammad after latching onto a flick-on by fellow forward, Kenwyne Jones.

Commenting after the match, Molino, who broke the US Pro Soccer league scoring record this season with his US Major League Soccer-bound club and was named the USL Pro “Most Valuable Player” said he was simply happy to contribute but “scoring goals don’t mean much if we don’t win.”

Ten minutes into the match, Molino also had a chance to put T&T ahead but he fired into the side netting with teammates Jones and Hector unmarked in the penalty-area while England-based Andre Boucaud and Belgium-based Khaleem Hyland had long range efforts that failed to hit the mark.

At the other end of the field, T&T goalkeeper Jan-Michael Williams was mostly a spectator as the defensive quartet of Sheldon Bateau, Carlyle Mitchell, Joevin Jones and Daneil Cyrus together with defensive midfield duo, Hyland and Boucaud protected the T&T goal by smothering any counter attack from their opponents.

But on the resumption, the visitors came alive with Calaum Martin curling a left-footed attempt wide, in the 53rd, and two minutes later, he forced Williams into a block after being put through by Peter Byers.

Antigua & Barbuda was now enjoying a brief moment of dominance and in the 58th minute Martin tested Williams with a free-kick while Byers fired wide of the mark after a one-two with substitute Randolph Burton.

This forced Hart off his seat on the touchline as he signalled for his players to up the team, and his demand was almost met by another goal for T&T, when Vietnam-based midfielder Hughton Hector cut inside right-back Quinto Griffith in the 64th minute, only to scoop his right footer overbar.

The nippy Hector had a crack on target in the 77th minute but Muhammad was equal to the strike with a one-handed save putting it over the bar while substitutes Cordell Cato and Ataulla Guerra also tried their best to stamp their name on the game, but to no avail.

Despite the score-line captain Jones said, “It was an almost perfect game tonight (Sunday).”

Jamaica next
Soca Warriors stay unbeaten to top group

By Ian prescott ian.prescott@trinidadexpress.com
Story Created: Oct 13, 2014 at 8:43 PM ECT


“It’s about time Trinidad and Tobago win the Caribbean Cup again,” declared Cardiff City striker Kenwyne Jones, who, until a week ago, had not kicked a ball in the Caribbean’s premier football championship. Now, he’s getting ambitious, wanting to win T&T the Cup for the first time in 13 years. “If we do win the Caribbean Cup we get into the Copa America in 2016,” Jones said. “That is the added prize at the end.”

On Sunday night, Jones captained the Soca Warriors to a 1-0 win over Antigua and Barbuda, as T&T ended its Caribbean Cup Group 7 qualifying semi-final series unbeaten. Kevin Molino’s 45th minute goal sufficed to see the Soca Warriors past Antigua & Barbuda, after earlier in the tournament beating Dominican Republic (6-1) and St Lucia (2-0) over a five-day period.

T&T now join Antigua & Barbuda, Martinique, Curacao, Haiti, French Guiana, hosts Jamaica and defending champions Cuba to contest the eight-team Caribbean finals, for which the 2014 champions earn a special prize— automatic entry to a special centennial edition of the Copa Centro Americana tournament, involving teams such as Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia, Mexico and the US. The Caribbean Cup’s top four also qualify automtically for next year’s CONCACAF Gold Cup.

A victim of his own success, Jones never got the chance to play in the Caribbean Cup before, having ten years ago left for English club Southampton as a 20-year-old. “Our first focus really was these qualifying games here, and now that we have done that, we are moving on to the tournment in November and hopefully we can take each game as it comes, and also put a little pressure on ourselves to win the Cup.”

Jones added: “I think that the group that we have at the moment is quite strong, and is definitely a special group that could do big things in the next few years to come. ”

US-based Orlando City striker Molino was scoring his fourth goal in two matches as T&T won a highly, tactical match which produced very few chances.

Seven England-born players brought Antigua & Barbuda a defensive concentration and calm organisation rarely seen in their teams, as the Soca Warriors worked all night on breaking through a rock-solid defensive wall.

Molino produced the one moment of magic which the “Benna Boys” failed to contain. Taking Jones’ inward pass, a little “shimmy” provided Molino an extra few yards of space, and he put a low shot past goalie Brenton Muhammad. Showing strong defensive resolve, Antigua & Barbuda sat back, were content to stay organised behind the ball and allowed few chances.

“I was very impressed with Antigua. I make a prediction. I think we will see them playing in the Gold Cup,” T&T head-coach Stephen Hart said after the game. “Very young team, seven players playing in the English leagues. Quality.”

T&T’s Hughtun Hector also had two rare openings in the second half, including a “shot” down the midde which stung the fingers of the Antigua & Barbuda goalie. And defensively, T&T were comfortable, troubled only by the occassional counter-attack from striker Peter Byers.

“We knew how they were going to play and they did exactly as we thought. I though we executed well,” Hart said. “We knew that they wanted a point, and would sit, try to pull us forward. Try to sit there and see what happens, and if the catch us on the counter, they catch us on the counter.

‘’So, I told the players don’t throw yourselves into it, just be patient and try to play around it. If you get one or two chances, and if you take them, the game’s over, “Hart said. “I think they had one chance.”

Antigua to strengthen for Caribbean Cup
By Ian Prescott (Express).


Eight England-born players are definitely not enough for Antigua and Barbuda men’s national football head coach Rolston “Debo” Williams, who intends to further strengthen his team for next month’s Caribbean Cup final to be played in Montego Bay, Jamaica, from November 9-19.

Williams was speaking after his team finished second in semi-final Group Seven, and qualified for the eight-team Caribbean final, despite a 1-0 defeat to Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday night at Ato Boldon Stadium. Antigua and Barbuda joined T&T, Martinique, Curacao, Haiti, French Guiana, hosts Jamaica and defending champions Cuba in the final.

Williams credited their foreign-based contingent for a disciplined performance by the “Benna Boys”, who were very difficult to break down.

“We have eight foreign-based players. The impact they have brought to us is professionalism, the work attitude, the work ethics. They bring the work ethic to the team...They bring the belief. All of this is good for us,” Williams said.

“I think they bring a lot to the team.”

Williams added: “We will strengthen the team in Jamaica and we are looking forward to that tournament very much. Keenly we are looking forward to it , and I think that we will be a big surprise over there” he said. “There is room for improvement. We always want to improve the team and if there are good players over there and they want to join us, our arms are open.

The real measure of a man's character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out.

Which channel broadcasting the 2014 Caribbean Cup
« Reply #176 on: October 30, 2014, 12:01:23 PM »
You would think in 2014, ESPN have 2 Caribbean channels on FLOW. Sportsmax have 2 channels. You would think one of them will broadcast the region's premier tournament.

CFU is really a joke yes. I wonder If they have anyone in there that will be like aye, how about we contact ESPN and Sportsmax and sell the rights. They both on FLOW so it reaching all the participating countries.

Is there anything we can do for this? I want to watch my team take part in the tournament from the comfort of my living room. Is that so much to ask in 20 f**king 14?
