Double goalscorer Keon Daniel said his performance in Havana was a result of hard work and belief. The United Petrotrin midfielder, a former National Under 20 team member was not in the start team for the 1-0 loss to Haiti in Port-Au-Prince but was included in the first eleven against El Salvador and Francisco Maturana kept him in for the Cubans. “I always believed in myself and it worked out well tonight. I knew there would be a time when I would come up big,” Daniel told TTFF Media.
“To tell you the truth it all come from the coachman. He continuously keep telling me to play hard, shoot and believe in myself. I always play better away from home. The pressure is less. This came from hard work. I have to keep working on it.,” Daniel added.
“I think we wanted the three points and we went there and got it. We are in a good position with the win now and we have to win again against Guatemala. I want to make it to the World Cup because that’s the biggest stage.” T&T’s third goalscorer Cornell Glen felt the win on the road was just the right start for the “Soca Warriors”.

St. Clair Coaching School was again the most successful club at the Tobago leg of the Annual Republic Bank Youth Cup Tournament hosted at the Dwight Yorke Stadium, Bacolet, Tobago. The class outfit was successful in three of six age groups; Stokely Vale won two and Youths United won the other.
A total of 21 teams registered for the tournament which had two new age groups: Under 10 Boys and Under 15 Girls. Unfortunately though, there were no Under 15 Girls teams registered. By contrast, the Under 14 Boys had the largest number of teams (a total of seven).
Coaching School was successful in the the Under 10, 12 and 14 Boys. The Under 10 and 12 groups were Round Robin tournaments with the School finishing at the top while in the two-group Under 14 age group they defeated Stokely Vale in a penalty shoot-out after the full time score was goalless in the final.
Stokely Vale played unbeaten to win the Under 16 Age Group and their Under 18 Girls defeated Coaching School twice to claim the title (there were only two teams in this division).
Youths United prevented a clean sweep by Tobago’s top two clubs when they won the Under 18 Boys division.
