Videos: Trinidad vs Bermuda Football Highlights
Bermuda took on Trinidad & Tobago last night [Sept.2] for the first game of the FIFA World Cup CONCACAF Qualifying Group 2. The game was played in Port of Spain, Trinidad and saw Bermuda go down 1-0. Courtesy of the Trinidadian media, below are two videos clips showing game highlights, and a post-game interview with Bermuda’s coach.
Game highlights:
FIFA’s game report said, “Group B favourites and Caribbean powers Trinidad and Tobago, led by new German coach Otto Pfister, had their hands full on home soil at the Hasely Crawford Stadium in Port of Spain.”
“Up against Caribbean neighbours Bermuda, the Soca Warriors, on paper at least, should have had an easy day. However, the 2006 FIFA World Cup participants met stiff resistance from skipper Khano Smith and the rest of the Bermudians, who defended stoutly and were unlucky not to escape with a point for their efforts.”
Game highlights #2:
“The only difference on the day was a goal from T&T’s Stoke City striker and newly named captain Kenwyne Jones who blasted home a volley on the stroke of halftime.”
“Bolstered by their positive performance, Bermuda will surely fancy their chances in the return leg at the National Stadium in Hamilton, the very same venue where they shocked Trinidad and Tobago 2-1 in South Africa 2010 qualifying.”
Post game interview with Bermuda coach Devarr Boyles:
Bermuda will now prepare for their second match against Guyana next Tuesday, September 6, in Guyana.
