Are there direct flights from Port-of-Spain to Germany? If you know me, you might know I am a big supporter of CONCACAF soccer (that's the North/Central America and Caribbean Soccer Federation). The US, Mexico, and Costa Rica are the perennial powers of the region, and the usual three that go to the World Cup. But the 4th place team in the region has a chance to go too -- if it beats the 5th place Asian team in a playoff. And so it was that our region's 4th place team, Trinidad and Tobago, got to play Bahrain in a home and away aggregate score series for a spot in Germany. I watched the first leg Saturday, which was a 1-1 draw and not what the Soca Warriors (T&T) were looking for in their home game. I missed todays game due to work, but followed the score in the midst of a busy day (I have become a big Soca Warriors fan ever since moving to NYC and getting exposed to the West Indian Carnival, soca music, and Carib beer). What was the result? I'll let tomorrow's front page of the Trinidad Express give you a hint. Read some articles here and here.
UPDATE: This link will just show the current front page of the paper, not that day's. I'll keep it up just for the hell of it.
