[Applause] [Applause] here at the hazy Crawford stadium in Trinidad and Tobago a rivalry steeped in history as both teams warm up for their conquer CF Nation matchups Trinidad and Tobago take on Jamaica as Trinidad and Tobago Gets Ready To Face Canada on March 23rd and Jamaica Gets Ready To Face USA on March

21st looking at the weather today it a scorcher 30° C humidity index 66% and wind speeds at 14 km per hour and while the weather graphic says that we definitely need that water Rak during the game today my name is Hans dein joining me on the pitch two men that can

Tell you about this rivalry former Soo wara Brent Sancho and commentator James Saunders guys what are we in for today it’s Chrystal for Columbus time because it’s going to be exploration for these teams they’re going to be exploring each other exploring players exploring possibilities because both these teams

Of course are preparing for what’s ahead TNT of course are coming up against Canada in the play in for the Copa America while Jamaica of course the Nations League semi-final that’s ahead for them they’re going to be looking to supplement their squads and this is what

This fixture is about Bren when we talk about this fixture well when you talk about this fixture you can’t put the word rivalry next to it because as we all know this is about being King of the Caribbeans and for both countries the bragging rights will always be there yes

There is a situation where players are trying to get themselves involved in the last set of names that would be put forward to the Nation League games that they have however there’s rivalry there’s bragging rights attached to this so I expect this game to have a little

Bit of tastiness in it well James let’s talk about the last few times these two teams met each other yeah it’s it’s prettyy close when you look on paper because uh when you look at the last three matches Hal hamson his first few matches in Jamaica were against Trinidad

And Tobago he lost the first one he duw the second one but of course when it came down to where the cookie really crumbled the crunch time that’s where Trinidad and Tobago fell W for the short 4-1 so it might look even in terms of results but that 4-1 is still going to

Be stinging Angus e the men because of course that knocked them out of the Gold Cup quention well you spoke about Angus even the under him let’s talk about the lineups today Brent yeah some interesting calls of of course a lot of players that have not been capped before

A Burns a young player that played for AC PA Spain of course doing exceptionally well k mo someone that came in at the the level at Club Sando and and of course chz Hamilton another player that plays at Club Sando so it’s always good to see young men who have

Done well throughout The League season now getting of course this situation where they can play an international fixture so I think that is where Angus Eva picked the squad based on what he saw during the league and that is how he’s come up with some of the players

That we see in the starting lineup James you take on the players like young Chavez yeah you see you see shaves In Contention of course after a decent run on the under 20 qualifiers where he scored two goals he’s a young player that’s promising Angus eeve pinpointed

Three players from that under 20 Squad that he likes uh particularly shaves being one of them lindel Sween who’s inel as well and of course R cardz uh so it’s a it’s an opportunity for them to take or grab hold of the opportunity at the senior level for Jamaica when you

Look at esort 14 oncap players in their 26 man squad it tells you how much uh you know hamson has been criticized in the past for not using enough local players well this is an opportunity that he’s handed them in the lap and say hey guys I’m giving you an opportunity

Against your Caribbean ribbers go out impress me and see if you can make my squad all right well what can we expect today guys on the pitch well I think for both coaches they would want to see if their both sets of charges will take the instructions that is handed out before

The game and of course they would want to see some sort of chemistry and fluidity throughout the game and cohesion as well that would be key and then if you can do the extra stuff that you’re good at that would be great for them well let’s talk a little bit about

The unlimited substitutions today as well well of course it’s it’s when you come out closed door games is the sort of situations that you have so I’m not surprised that that situation is being allowed well you can follow all of the action of this matchup and so many others simply by downloading the

Sportsmax app when we come back kickoff here at the Haz Crawford Stadium Trinidad and Tobago versus [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] Jamaica [Applause] [Applause] well that has picked his a Fort George a position used to defend this country back in the colonial era today it will be the hazley Crawford stadium that Trinidad and Tobago will hope will be a fortress as they come up against Jamaica windy conditions a hot Friday

Here in Port of Spain and uh even more fight match up expected here at the hisley Crawford Stadium it’s Trinidad and Tobago versus Jamaica James wers is my name Brent Sanchez alongside me to bring you all of the action break down all of the analysis as we get set for this match

Two teams that have dominated the Caribbean region for several years and they’re pretty even in the last three fixers certainly under Hal hamson who will overse this Jamaica team who are preparing for semi-finals of the conquer Nations League for Angus EES men all the assignment is a big one as well they get

Set to face Canada in a one-off plane for place at the Copa America Brent Sancho joins the conversation Brent Trinidad and Tobago versus Jamaica you look at the squads uh relatively inexperienced squad on both ends however it’s never really a friendly between these teams never is and uh when you

Start jutting back your memories as to the type of fixtures we’ve seen when these two teams meet it always have a little bit of extra taste on it I remember myself playing against Jamaica beating them in a quarterfinals James and the CSC games uh that game had a bit

Of taste in this Bo on and off the field when we went back to the the hotel that hosted the both teams remarkably enough when we played Venezuela in the semi-finals the Jamaicans was there to support us so despite the fact that uh there is rivalry when it comes to it of

Course there’s a high level of respect for both teams when you talk about about Kings of the Caribbean and success at a Caribbean level it’s very difficult for you to look past the likes of Trin Tobago and Jamaica of course Haiti would now start to enter and probably have

Been entering that conversation but I think as it relates to this uh particular fixture James it really comes down to players trying to find themselves on that plane for those Nation of course if you look at uh what has uh transpired with the 2006 Warriors a

Named Evans wise who’s not part of the qualifiers or pictures played a friendly game and found himself on a plane to Germany so if that was a story of inspiration I’m very sure these young men will take to that one all the SPs of the cast that will entertain us for the

Next 90 minutes Jamaica in the black with a gold stripe Trinidad and Tobago in their customary red white and black separated by some numbers in the current FIFA rankings but when it comes to Caribbean cups Jamaica six Caribbean cups Trinidad and Tobago 10 Caribbean cups take nothing away from the

Jamaicans though the recent form in particular I’ve seen them be become the most dominant team in the Caribbean Stand attempt Right The job is TE press for those men the Jamaicans the reggy boys 6 6 Five dut an in Anger Squad this evening and uh their job at Impress find a playing ticket to the us as Trinidad and Tobago gets set to take on Canada in the conquer CF playing all time for pleasantries the only time you might see these guys friendly for the remainder of the 90

Minutes how son had eyed some of his under 20 talent for this match but of course his under 20 team still in competition in the conquer CF qualifiers and let’s get introduced Nikolai Nyon will take charge of this fixture he will be assisted by Kurt Charles Melissa Nicholas a sister of

Former West indes Captain Marissa Aguilera and Cecil Hines will complete the rest of the referees cast and introduction to Jamaica and uh well they’ve got a very very good team Dixon of anet gardens is in there Don is currently the leading goal scorer in the Jamaica Premier

League 11 goals and he will be assisted in Attack by Reed who made the switch from nooka Halal Grimson is the coach well on you look at the lineups Reed Dixon and D will make up the attacking lineup with Shephard and Marshall at angling just behind them and

Foster will manly back as goalkeeper full of experience for Trinidad and Tobago as mentioned five debutants in the lineup among them Liam Burns Justin OBU of Coventry City well he will make his first appearance in the red white and black so to Kai gavy campaigned in Canada C Thomas gets

A looking while chevres Hamilton is another one of the debutants together with Kai Mo Angus Eve the most capped Trinidad and Tobago player is on the bench as coach so biku will lead the point of the attack gavy slutting in on the right Kai Mo who recently made an impression in

The TT Premier League playing with Club Sando sitting just behind them while the two Wing backs on debut to the Chev Hamilton and Liam Burns some prayer and perhaps some reflection ahead of a task at hand majority of this team campaigning in the ti Premier League Josiah trimmingham one of the men

Who will be the leaders in this outfit of course he does represent the Jamaican Club mon Pleasant together with Kylie oy who’s on the bench this afternoon mon Pleasant of course sit in second in the GPL at the moment Adrian fet a police goalkeeper and National Youth Talent will be in

Goal it’s been a race to replace Marvin Philip the long standing Trinadad and Tobago International so Nikolai Nyon sends us on our way here at the hisley Crawford Stadium Jamaica in the black and gold Trinidad and Tobago in the red and black black a last three fix St between these

Teams see them split right down the middle a win for Trinidad and Tobago in Montego Bay in Hon’s first matches in Jamaica jaw Kingston and of course uh the Jamaicans perhaps can boast of a heavy for1 thrashing of the so Warriors at the conquer CAF Gold Cup Brent Sancho is

Alongside me Brent it’s a fix here that uh not much is known about these teams and what we can expect but what can we still tell well I think the coaches first and foremost would want their instructions carried out it will be difficult to get uh fluidity and cohesion simply because

Uh both sets of players would uh wouldn’t have much time in preparation as we look at coach angas and I’m very sure that uh his uh pregame speech would be stick to the plan of what is has been set forward try to keep structure and

Shape and then you can start to add the extra that you have and of course from a Jamaica perspective I expect very similar it’s a big test for for both sets of players as you mentioned a lot of uncap players within the rankings Thomas Center knocked out and he will have a second

Bite whips it in the area did take a deflection somewhat of Justin sadu well hasn’t gone far has it as he Jamaicans try to scramble it away finally they get it clear well one criticism of H Grimson is the fact that many of noted that he hasn’t utilized much locally based

Players in any of his lineups of course the last time these teams met in Jamaica did utilized several players hson of course a former dentist and the man credited with uh taking Iceland to the quarterfinal run just standing out of your shot there but he is leading the charge on the

Bench oh they’re going to launch this in the area and well they’re appealing for a hand ball WKU tried to get something going but he was block out it’s one back by sadu Nathaniel Garcia well nasty collision and uh Nikolai nairu and immediately calling for medical attention yeah that’s uh looks like

A really bad C there both players had eyes on the football and maybe that’s where the unfortunate side of it stands because they didn’t see each other full-blooded tackle and uh looks like Nathaniel Garcia look W for where stepan young has been back is back

Up on his feet as we have another look at it Aaron pass played in there in the middle of the park Garcia all eyes on his ball and of course in the Collision there as we have a very good look at it there’s a lot of body parts from both

Individuals involved in that Collision let’s hope that uh the players a better certainly young looks like he’s shaking it off but Garcia still needing a bit of treatment oh nataniel Garcia back in the lineup they had done if he was to be replaced this early in the fixure of

Course the older brother TNT Starman Levi Garcia Caribbean Cup winner several years ago with Central FC as well now the concussion protocol these days requires that players must leave the pitch and uh well the coaches protocol is that getting a good bird’s eye view of the action Halal Grimson denst by profession well

Certainly more famous in the footballing arena certainly in Jamaica while uh Nathaniel Garcia just checks to make sure that well you can still count after that nasty Collision so wheel on man but he’s certainly tough what the Jamaican say little but his talawa he certainly does

Have that Steely Edge as a midfielder a player that has uh been in and around national teams it’s never really cracked it and uh solidify a starting position but every coach that has come in over the last five or so years plus I’ve seen his abilities as something

That they should have on a squad this is a game he would hope and of course if he continues to stamp his uh stamp his authority all over it all play finally rest started as Jad chimham launches this one looking for gavy didn’t take it cleanly just blocked Away by

Malalla well almost around himself in some trouble there Stewart finally now shepher look to get it away Al Don has made an overlapping run just couldn’t get past the physical presence of Josiah shingham of course shingham now also campaigning in the Jamaica Premier League Stewart malalla looking to build Rhythm now the Jamaicans

Has R himself into some trouble and uh finally is able to regain possession with a throw course this match you might notice the stands empty at the moment KFA chars the cause of that of course uh preparation on goinging here at the stadium for that which takes

Place tomorrow well could find a way through here and it might have been deflected and it will be a Jamaica Corner Reed showing exactly what he can do when given the opportunity when it comes to a striker that has experiened been there done that is that man in your picture Fab re so

Good clever flick through there he had one thing in mind he was looking to try to pass it in the far post didn’t get the right connection eventually it comes off of tring but uh faan Reed is a type of player that uh can turn something out of nothing quite

Quickly five goals from three matches for the aned gardens man and uh well it’s a corner kick that won’t trouble the TNT defense round two for the Jamaicans time blocked by Liam Burns one of the debutants this afternoon anywhere will do possession is gifted back to the Jamaicans through

Thomas as you can quite tell it’s it’s a tad wind here the here the cord Stadium sits just to the right of the golf of paria and the a Jeffers Highway the out Scouts of Porter spin well neither team has created any significant goal threat early on in this

Fix here Fabian Reed perhaps at the best opportunity oh that’s clever footwork and a crunching Challenge from Nathaniel Garcia who’s announced his presence on Dixon’s touches heavy the AR Gardens man but he will get her through but it certainly can be a struggle for coaches trying to get fluidity in a team that

Primarily hasn’t played together very often well this could be inviting Malala showing strength just to get ahead of gavy 14 oncap players in the Jamaica a squad of 26 of this match well this is promising showing immense strength here and they’re looking for a window perhaps now they can get one

Away is done oh clever footwork couldn’t be his man as gavy is H tackled illegally but a good look for the Jamaicans early on and they started to find a bit of joy particularly down this right hand side and in particular Justin dun obviously making an illegal challenge

There on g a good passage of play for the Jamaicans starting to strink together one or two passes and looked a bit of a threat now it’s uh looks like the turn of Trin Tobago gavi it’s good scale well this time nicar niron so nothing wrong

Oh what this game has lacked in fluidity certainly hasn’t lacked in physicality well he knows clearly what his instructions are Shon as Hamilton the man in your pict here versatile player just playing midfield for club club sandal being used in a left back position this afternoon well another try perhaps oh just over

The top Foster had a good look at it might have gotten a touch as well it’s a corner yeah and you can see Foster telling his Defenders just a tight closer cuz I had a lot of Venom in it ceiling just over the bar there

But as you have another look at it as he gets control here wiford oh they could swing one back in the area now it’s Away by the Jamaicans B it’s going to get interesting Foster at his eyes on it all the way man might look at this fixed here a

Match up between the JPL and the T Premier League oh Kam Thomas almost snuck in there see Jamaicans to get it away not interesting and going forward too quickly the Jamaicans quite confident in their buildup and finally one over the top can find a way past Burns as it just went out into

Touch I think both teams are struggling to find their Progressive Midfield as we see the Jamaican uh bench angling for Jamaica number six he’s uh being shadowed by Nathaniel Garcia so he’s not getting the opportunities to shift the side of attack or point of attack and it’s similar for KA M on Trin

Tobago side so that has made progressing the ball a little bit of a challenge that’s a good bit of t space he’s found some space here trying to get a look in and fret had the last touch Corner this time the Jamaicans forcing a corner after defending one just m

Moments earlier that’s Alex Marshall showing a good turn of pie here getting P Cheves Hamilton leaving him for dead thought his decision making there could have been better went to shoot from a very very tight angle and fep had that well cover not even sure if he was uh needed to

Make that save cuz it looked like it was heading wide nevertheless he couldn’t tell so he did the right thing yeah they’re lining up for this one all the big men inside the area for Jamaica oh just over the head there of Stewart who had arrived at the penalty spot

Burns well he lost that in a bad area biku and Josiah chimham to the rescue well this match uh starting at 3 p.m. local time here in Trinidad and Tobago Friday evening just quite typically quite hot at this time clouds overhead just lingering making conditions invitingly cool for the

Players it’s Marshall well this is probing well did find Dixon arriving late at the back post couldn’t stay it past goalkeeper on set yeah it’s good bit of vision there by Marshall he’s uh already looked very dangerous in all that he’s done just some moments ago taking on chz

Hamilton and leaving him for dead and now trying to make a pinpoint cross certainly the Lively of all four Wingers so far in this game but maybe Gaby could put me wrong speaking of lively Gaby One V one it’s not a bad idea knocked out at the front door with Shephard well talk about confidence of angland it’s as comfortable as a polar beer in the Arctic that man angland of G pass the middle line and able to pick out dun and he getting some movement forward oh look at that made his man disappear and he wins a throw for his

Team he’s showing some uh fancy football so far Al Marshall again there have to come in and support his club team it Stewart just over the head of Dixon oh can he find a way past burnsy toss so with some bit of ease well could open the door here for Jamaica and uh

Just run out of real estate in the end but again the Jamaicans are huffing and puffing yeah and it’s uh the supply of concern is coming from both of the Wingers let have a look at the bench for TR Tobago in that occasion for Jamaica it was the man kahim

Dixon again James maybe better decision making may have uh gotten him inside but he tried maybe a trick too many they starting to take a grip of this game the Jamaicans certainly looking Lively in the in their attacking third and uh with the likes of Dixon and Marshall

Certainly two players uh that look very competent in One V one situations here goes Marshall again oh looking like a conduct at the moment pulling all the strings angling Stewart surve his options and decides that young is the best one oh finally OBU decides to press here forcing the Jamaicans to move forward

Marshall well they finding space now red shields forced to retreat needs a good cross oh he’s found one but needed a better touch wasn’t there maybe Marshall can produce some more magic there a man down out of your pick here but they don’t mind as a sent a

Mortar from distance just missing its Mark certainly finding Rhythm and malalla at the moment seems to be in a bit of discomfort sule Malala one of a few M Pleasant players in the Jamaica lineup oh might be a closed match but they had the opportunity to come

In and uh oh finding a way inside his head at the moment love to know what his thought pattern might be has been quite active on the sideline since the match began anger of course several Scouts around today as well Brent having a look at some of the players who perhaps will

Look for overseas opportunities yeah we’ve seen that and uh we’ve seen players of course from both countries as we prepare for the water break as expected in games played at this time coach uh Derek King there with Rond Del Gibson now of Club Sando formerly of eagles FC

Probably likely to replace that man there in your picture who took a very nasty knock early in the game with his collision with Stephen young but I’m sure Jamaicans uh would be the happier of the two they’ve uh grown into the contest as it went along certainly the likes of kahem

Dixon and of course the star man so far Alex Marshall has caused a spot to b or two for angas and his charges in red oh new boy Kai gavy having some words with Coach Angus Eve ronal Primus one of those uh number 12 they picked here Caribbean Cup winner with Trinidad

And Tobago back in 2014 never really went on to cement a place at the senior level although he did play at two youth World Cups well as expected Rondell Gibson will make his debut for Trinidad and Tobago replacing Nathaniel Garcia of course he did suffer nasty collision and perhaps uh precaution against the

Concussion oh it’s hot I’m sure you could tell a sideline chatter oh W cre just ran into some traffic there was almost champled over by Stewart got St the hab of you man kavi oh just disconnected from the silver no real connection there between Don and the overlapping

Marshall going past the 20 minute Mark yet here is the Crawford Stadium still no goals between Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica so we welcome our viewers across the Caribbean and sports Max oh here has Rondell Gibson getting his first touch Danel Smith of course on the bench uh keeping company to

Nathaniel Garcia who’s just gone off K Thomas with the given goal Liam Burns in a dangerous area oh B who’s there gets a head on it not enough but promising yeah bit more enterprising there from TR Tobago first time really in this game able to put together a

Couple passes Burns at the end of this cross beu maybe overrunning his uh charge towards the goal always having to stretch can’t generate the power necessary and eventually straight back in the safe hands of kimar foster but that’s a little bit better from Chad and maybe if they can uh be a

Bit more consistent with uh that sort of approach it may start to Edge this game more to their favor interesting James Rondell Gibson is into the game and he already is uh playing a little bit deeper than the the person that he replaced to Nathaniel Garcia almost a double pivot with K Moos

That’s good skill again he’s open the door can he get in Marshall well good touch from sardu taking it away from Marshall as gavy tries to get it away oh they try again the Jamaicans again running into a red light Malala losing possession as aiku picks it

Up good skill and uh just tripped up in the hand from shepher didn’t like what he saw Jamon Shephard Hamilton searching couldn’t beat Malalla Ry saw nothing wrong play continues this time it’s sadu who goes down in a heap s of course plays his Club football right here in Trinidad and Tobago with the Defense Force it’s Gibson well he’s found a way to trying to get cim Thomas involved but the

Former National the 20 player spling over his man 21 years old now cim Thomas it’s part of the last Trinidad and Tobago under 20 setup prior to one that played in the conquer CF qualifiers and uh well just being a bit naughty that time wling over Steven young and from Portmore Kala

It’s losing possession to mooves as trimmingham tries to get it Forward Gibson tripped up he’s wasted no time in getting into the game Rond Del Gibson yeah he has and uh he’s uh certainly left his print on it what he’s doing uh James he’s making himself available for the football he’s

Trying to play in the pockets and always make himself readily for any passing option and that’s is what tranto need if they are to get some sort of fluidity in this game will be another corner for the SOA Warriors now they certainly will wait their turn to get

Ready it’s Thomas Swan is high Gibson is arriving trimmingham got a head on it oh hasn’t hasn’t G anywhere sides over the goal line but there might have been a falll before that as the Jamaicans win possession anger urging his team to press higher oh got to stop Marshall

First a slippery as they come arguably one been one of the best players of the match so far Alex Marshall the and from Portmore oh Burns not really getting a handle on it and it will be the Jamaicans happy to take back possession Marshall it’s done well to open up some

Space here and they will drive into the space here the Jamaicans well the flag go up it comes late just arriving a bit too early but the warning signs are there yeah and uh I think Dixon would be disappointed there could have held his run a bit he’s

Looking right across the line it didn’t need him to go this early right about here when you realize that you’re going past it you have to pull out and take the width instead he kept going forward and of course eventually went offside C up with opportunity there from Jamaica but uh really and

Truly poor Mistake by Dixon and going offside Moes oh slipped away from his man couldn’t get past a second he’s not with the ball tossle for this and uh does really well to get it away well one back by Ronald Primus this time Mo has space to advance yes Rondell Gibson chevr Hamilton

Singham just a handful of senior International caps of trimmingham gives away possession but it’s one back though to Gibson just not finding space easily and certainly F the boot to the back of his heels cim Thomas it’s a good opportunity though just outside the area and of course K Thomas know reowned

For his set piece ability Sports plead in him there very very lead with that challenge well son has just joined us here the hisley Crawford stadium in Splendid Glory as you can see all the Shadows have magically evaporated off the surface Thomas certainly wants a piece

Of this so to gavy will be Thomas deflected oh just wide of the Mark I tell you what if you are to take indication from Kamal Foster’s body language he was in a cement blocks on his feet stuck to the ground that deflection had him going in the wrong

Wave and he was very thankful that the ball didn’t end up in the back of the net big deflection Kamar for already going to his right just couldn’t get back and ball goes to a corner that’s a free header well just missed his Mark yet again he got in a really good

Area just couldn’t find it on Target and in the last few minutes Justin U had some of the better chances for tunal and Tobago certainly looked a threat in the air Oh we’ve gone past the half hour mark still no goals in this vix last time these teams met in a friendly International ended in a goess jaw at the National Stadium in Kingston Dixon couldn’t find a way through Rond Del Gibson now wiggling away finding space linking up with sadu

And now they will get Gaby involved it’s one V one well sad was arrived there but it’s touch a bit too heavy yeah and uh easily James the best passage of play for Trin and Tobago in this half it’s good bit of footwork by Gibson changing the point of

Attack when Garvey got into this position here with the football could be The Vision by the young man from Canada Line breaking run from sadu but the touch let him down well here’s K Thomas Burns plays with the league leaders AC port just time gavy it’s well taken away by

Malalla danger seem him and then for a seconda spotted the danger well momentum has certainly shifted in the last few minutes yeah and you’d have to give run Gibson credit for that since he’s come on the park he’s demanded the football and he’s been uh very economical in his distribution Chase for

Primus Hamilton to keep it in Kai Moes and that’s a chase that OBU will not win well Mo has been batter in the last interaction out place for Club Sando fifth place in the standings in the TT Premier League one of his teammates Jamal Jack there as well oh certainly left his

Bird’s eye position he wants to get close to the action now Hal hamson yeah I think he’s felt that shift as well certainly Trin and Tobago now in the ascendancy it really has been James Z battler the middle of the park that has decided which team has the

Impetus and of the last uh five plus minute maybe even 10 might have to say that TR Tobago has taken charge in that department Moose finds Robert Primus almost lost it for a second but he recovered well almost got s win one by Primus legally so says the roughing Factor T go D bagos way hson Jamaican coach uh S as prematch talks that he intends to see at least 90 minutes from most of the

Players in his Squad also we welcome all of our viewers across the Caribbean and around the world via sportsmax app of course download the sportsmax app today via the Apple Store and Google Play and he can capture all of the action a Jamaican premier league and the TTP

Fire Sports marks up get it today Marshall with the interception and uh just bumped out of possession and uh Nikolai niron cautioning chevis Hamilton for some rough play well he’s done well a big was he F Well Nikolai niron agrees it’s another free kick for trinal and

Tobago yeah and that’s good work by the big man from centry that’s what you want from a forward when you’re trying to press have to be alert and he was with that erron touch he was able to get his body in between and now puts Trin Tobago in a very promising position

Particularly with the likes of Rond Del Gibson and of course that man kahim Thomas we’ve seen Hamilton as well had a few but it looks like uh Gibson is the one that has taken charge of it so Rondell Gibson did make the January transfer from Eagles FC C

Sando and uh now making the step up to the senior International level on debut on target as well Foster was there ball positioned Foster H to the danger oh he’s been picked his pocket picked and Dixon will try to advance oh that’s Street at Adan F set

Oh the keeper Foster is down that’s the reason that Nikolai Nyon stopped play F just seemed to have taken a knock in the last challenge that was made of course uh they do have reserves on the bench they can call upon the Jamaicans young Jayden hibbit of Atlanta FC yeah just uh recently

Drafted of Atlanta United first first time around the Jamaica callup he talked about the excitement in his family both uh at home and of course in Jamaica and both teams uh of course with uh difference in Direction Jamaica fully utilizing their diaspora for team selection which have seen uh several players

Recruited from outside the shores of Jamaica and of course Tran Tobago certainly not as uh adventurous as Jamaicans certainly the Lord doesn’t allow it as a passport situation here or citizenship situation stops at the mother and father doesn’t go to the grandparents maybe something Trinidad Tobago could look at in the future

Jamesly hope so got many Trinidad and Tobago players playing in the Top Flight competition around Europe these days since the days of the Dwight Yorks and Russell lpes but it’s something that we’ve seen across the conquer region you look at the likes of cure sou Haiti for example

And of course uh Jamaica certainly utilized it to the advantage yeah and it’s a Hot Topic in the Caribbean of course uh there are the protagonists that believe that uh it’s times the development on island and of course there are the ones that uh believe that it benefits because it helps the

Country play more top level games which of course brings in the finances to develop the Young Talent on the island interesting conversation of course that one of the utilization of the diaspora James for me I think as Tiny as we are in the Caribbean we have to use

Everything that you can to bring success on a football pitch and in a region with the likes of the USA Canada Mexico Etc with uh huge populations and huge playing pool to choose from I certainly believe that countries if they have the opportunity need to utilize what they

Can s’s done well to win it back and uh oh that was an attempted shot from Ka Mo just couldn’t St in the direction wanted so almost scary to think that the likes of Kyle Walker Raheem still in as well could have represented the regy boys in competition I know there’s still talks

Of uh Mason Greenwood of course he would not be able to play he would have uh played his amount of national games that may not make him qualify but there’s still a long long list of uh potential Jamaican targets that’s uh being discussed and probably negotiated that’s a good bit of work

There by Thomas he wins a corner and Trinidad and Tobago currently leading in the corner category haven’t utilized it to the advantage so far just that one header from U that went over the top and that’s surprising James because when you look at the likes of tringham and

Primus who’ve done very well in the TT pfl of course tram going on to the JPL now of course you mentioned auku they should at least uh find the Target and a man like this Thomas to deliver that’s a poor delivery though well not his best delivery won’t be tipped for that

And uh we have a second bite Though K Thomas of course uh along with the likes of real Gil former under 20 Talent played at the last conquer CF championship of course Trin Tobago just feeling this week qualify oh that’s a big header from Stewart well Foster took that really low out he hasn’t really

Grabbed D it and the referee’s whistle comes to his help what a scary moment though for the regy boys hasn’t always looked that confident dealing with the big aerial balls Foster oh peing for a hand ball Stewart he not going to get it as Advantage is given to Jamaica and

Uh time be foul against them and no surprise who’s the man that’s down at the moment Alex Marshall certainly been a thorn in the side of the TNT Defense clock ticking down just 20 seconds of Regulation time and what will be Added that’s of course the water break that’s to me that it might just be around 3 minutes that will be added oh high boot there from Primus effective Gibson squirms as we out of trouble before Fonda so it is confirmed that it will be 3 minutes to be added well how slippery is

Anil anybody knows R Gibson he’s been a slippery customer and pin him down that easily the sun certainly out in full force here in Port of Spain and here’s the Crawford Stadium started this match with some cloud cover well that has changed exponentially it’s blazing at the moment players would be happy

To make their way into the halftime tunnel of course KFA trials will be taking place here tomorrow at the hazley Crawford Stadium one of the reasons for the empty Stadium match was closed off to the public and of course one of the reasons for the early start of this 60 as well yes

Gibson Singham chevres Hamilton well he’s giving his man the old banana peel and uh well he’s taking the old tumble not familiar with that position very much Hamilton usually employed as a Winger midfielder used this afternoon as a left back well he finds his Club moves dancing shoes couldn’t stay on his foot

And well a whistle as Gibson tried to find some shooting Room they’ve almost used up all of the additional time that was added just about 30 seconds of it remaining still a goal less between Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica of course at halim we will have the highlights and uh some analysis well K Thomas could be through NE seek getting a foot

In but still not over and it will be a way to D it’s got some support as the Jamaicans push forward certainly like to get something before halftime there won’t be enough time as Nikolai niron signals the end of 45 minutes so 45 minutes that has ebbed and

Flowed terms of momentum for either the team Rond Del Gibson making an impact after coming on as a substitute for Nathaniel garer sadu and C Thomas getting in good positions Don and Reed and perhaps Alex Marshall the most dangerous of Jamaica so far but at the end of 45 minutes it’s

All blanks Trinidad asago nil Jamaica nil we take a pause and be back with the [Applause] Highlights [Applause] [Applause] all the here the Crawford stadium is alive and Alive with football action no goals though still goal as between Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica in the first of two friendly Internationals well 45 minutes is gone and uh it’s time to look back rewind the clock see how it unfolded started with

The pleasantries Nikolai Nyon leading the charge Jamaica using a number of UNCA players so to Trinidad and Tobago to trimmingham one of the leaders in the bunch and it started early with K Thomas having the first ra go Costa had to get a touch to see it

Over have some warning signs of what was to come and then after that well the match ebed and it certainly flowed Jamaica one point took a lot of control this man in particular Alex Marshall wiggling up his way to space forcing a save from fet and they hued and puffed that one

Coming from distance from angling K Thomas though might argue that he perhaps came the closest deflected free kick leaving his man like a statue not inside the net and then later on from one of his Corners aiku just missing the top corner and another free kick Rond Del

Gibson later on he came on as a substitute forcing a save from Foster not enough to beat the man and that is all that 45 minutes coughed up in terms of action maybe the numbers can tell a different picture as we dissect the digits and when you look

At that Trinidad and Tobago leading on shot Kongs certainly a physical contest Jamaicans committing nine on Trinidad and Tobago four no cards so far in this fixed here jamaicas keep a foster forced into the majority of action but all of that comes from not like what the score

Is at the moment 0 Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica we’d love to hear the analysis and get the inside scop that hansy is standing by with Bren Sancho thank you very much James Saunders nil nil on the half but Bren let’s talk about the way these teams match up we

Talking skills physicality and everything in between well we did say that there would be some challenges when it comes to fluidity because of the composition of both teams as we mentioned a really a plora of Allstar players from both of the respective domestic league so that had its

Challenges in in the way the teams play but certainly Jamaica looked like the team that was uh given more impetus going forward in the first 20 minutes or so and then of course that change in the last 20 25 minutes for Trin Tobago starting to find a little bit of gaps

And spaces behind the Jamaican defense it’s been an even game so far I think both coaches would be moderately Happy from what they’ve seen so far from their charges well let’s talk about some of the charges let’s talk about Dixon and Marshall from the Jamaica team I tell

You what exceptional 1 V one players one on the left hand side the other on the right hand side Alex Marshall showing a clean pair heels so shev us Hamilton on a couple occasions his decision making when he got into the box let him down but what he’s presented is a genuine

Outlet for the Jamaicans they’ve been able to utilize him to great effect and of course Dixon on the other side ever willing getting forward up the left hand side more importantly when he gets into the sort of areas uh that he should be executing better it didn’t go well and

Both teams are very guilty of that situation they’ve not been able to execute in the goal scoring end properly that’s why we’ve seen a limited amount of goal scoring opportunities or goal score or goal M action for that part it’s been a team first half pleasing under eye but certainly lacked the sort

Of activity that we thought we would have seen well Nathaniel Garcia came off and in came Rondell Gibson clearly making a difference well a massive difference and you call it the Gibson Factor before Garcia came off the challenge that Trin Tobago had is the midfielders were coming onto the ball

Straight on so they were taking two and three touches and passing the ball back not able to spread the or change the point to the attack but Gibson came on and saw something different he started to come a bit side on and take one touch and was able to look forward to make

Those passes and that has been critical in terms of the change that we saw in the middle of the park when a midfielder has broken a line through a turn or movement it then gives your offensive players opportunities to start to advance and that’s what Gibson did for

TR Tobago so far in a short s came on in the 22nd minute but certainly had an impact so far in this football game well extreme lesson for players and coaches alike Brent what can we look forward to in the second half well I think for a Jamaica perspective they want want to

Neutralize Gibson and his ability to move the ball around in the middle of the park so expect them to press a little bit higher up the park expect them to go back to the usage of Marshall and Dixon and what they’ve been able to do in the first 20 minutes try to get

Them in isolated positions higher up the park and for Trin Tobago they have to be a little bit more Cutting Edge in the attack in the attacking third I think that’s what the mess message would be and of course H this is unlimited substitution so expect to see a huge

Amount of changes that may disrupt the flow of the game well the flow of the game continues when we come back around here at the hazy Crawford Stadium Trinidad and Tobago nil Jamaica nil when we come back second half [Applause] action [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] well the sun is back out and so two of the players as we get set for second half action here at the hisley Crawford Stadium still goess between Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica well alert you in terms of our changes as they come about

And uh expect that it might be quite a few changes Bo coaches of course having a look at some of the players that will help their teams to make of course preparing for the semi-final of the conquer cap Nations League Trinidad and Tobago getting ready for that playe

Against Canada for the OPA America CHS owners is my name Bren Sano is alongside me heard all of the halftime analysis of uh all the action Rond Del Gibson certainly one of the standout players and we get set for the second half well it’s a second half uh that

Certainly would have uh some sorts of changes in it as you mentioned these uh two games are part of prep atory works for both teams for their Nations League assignments that they respectively have for and of course for that reason it’s unlimited substitutions so expect to

See a host of Subs being used as we see the men in the red white and black after their halftime break well look at the cast members players make their return to the field no sign of any real changes just yet for Trinidad and Tobago most of the starting lineup

That completed the first half looks set and ready to come out for the second Foster he’s been busy three saves for the Jamaica shot stopper so will let you know of any ra changes as the Jamaica team makes their way out of the dressing room might be a couple of changes of

Course uh Halal Grimson did say that he would like every player in the squad to get at least 90 minutes of action over the course of the two matches of course and they do look set to make a couple of changes from their end among those set to come in is

Romario kri of mon Pleasant Jason right also seems lined up and ready to come in shamon Shephard will return as he was part of the first half action so roario gri and Jinx right two of the changes so far you will have confirmation on your screen in just a second of the changes

Made so far and this fixed here I can tell you it’s quite hot here just after 400 p.m. local time Bal fans of course missing out on this one because of the fact that KFA pres preparations are ongoing here at the stadium tomorrow well it’s all for one and one

For all Kim Thomas one of the most dangerous of the so Warriors players in the first half if anybody would know that man certainly will so no changes for the SOA Warriors two changes for Jamaica as we get set for the second half Al action is away here at the hle Crawford

Stadium chevr Hamilton gets back into the ACT D Tobago does have the likes of Nathaniel James Ross Russell Jr un and back of D mockett to call upon second leg of this fixed here will take place on Sunday 4m. at the Larry goom stadium in East Chad of course that

Match will be available to fans who can view it live always a tasty encounter every time these teams meet M Liam Burns so we by jika right gets his first touch well this is long another of the substitutes gri couldn’t get to it in the end taken away by his opposite number Josiah

Chimham it’s a we by Moose and will be another throw for the regy boys Marshall he’s found a wi to get in Marshall and uh well appeared to have been bumped he one a free kick and just like the first staff he’s brought his magic tricks to the second and he’s won

Himself a free kick just this time he’s coming along the left hand side and not the rightand side good bit of trickery there by Marshall a player that uh has beliefs in his uh ability to take his man on and why not he’s done it well so Far Romario gri The Substitute whips this one across the face oh might have gotten a touch there for a second this could fall anywhere well fun set how did he get a bu and that as a flag eventually goes up in the end what a save from for what a chance for Jamaica

Yeah hesitation In The Box by the r guard of Trinidad Tobago F there making sure that he made himself big not not be known to him was offside but yet a good stop by a man from from miscellaneous police Hamilton he got space to run into and he

Tries to get it to to Abu try again the soo Warriors Primus Singham to play with Miami FC one point in the usling home to Club Sando and then on among Pleasant in Jamaica angling H an angle and the Dixon’s pass is cut out will be a Through oh several debuts Trinadad and too in this match how do you think they faed so far I think it’s been a mixed bag I think defensively both uh Hamilton and burns have found themselves wed maybe a bit of uh exuberance on their path maybe a bit

Too tight to their man and not uh of course following some basic defensive principles but offensively they’ve uh not done too badly those two in particular outside of that Buu looks a good focal point certainly the height that TR Tobago has missed for some time of

Course there’s Brent Sam that and ran Mo but postup player player that uh you can play things into looks theart and of course still relatively Young but I think the the talk of the half so far has to be Rond Gibson and what he’s been able to produce Burns cross looks

Exciting and just over the head of everybody the top left will give you an idea of the changes that will made of course Don and young among the players replaced oh bed action and uh oh you’ll get treatment S as Hamilton one of those debutants Brent spoke

About it’s been utilized in a position we aren’t quite familiar in seeing him in yeah he normally plays a bit higher up the park but uh it’s uh all part and parcel and trying to assert yourself into a national team of course uh the ability to play numerous Position will help and

Certainly can help in those sorts of situations and I know James he will talking about the diaspora Factor and I understand in my uh travels during the halftime that a certain Mason Greenwood may be appearing in The regga Boy Color soon I know conversation is uh heating up and uh

There certainly seems to be some sort of uh agreement on both sides of course unconfirmed reports but uh that was the chatter in a halftime down at the benches that would be a very interesting interesting insertion into that Jamaican lineup of course Mason greenw with only one Senior Team cap which certainly

Means that he can make the travels across that would be intriguing for the Jamaicans certainly would have their eyes on him the our campaign at hatf been described as uh by the La Liga president Javier tbas as the best English player might soon have to change that to Jamaican certainly done well since

Making the switch across toaf five goals and five assists the Season 22 matches certainly would be some added quality to the Jamaican lineup That ready possesses immense offensive possibilities the likes of Leon Bey well the temple of the match has gone down significantly coincided with the arrival of the bright sunny

Conditions and fonset was taking no chances there sent that high into the stands oh can they find a way through maybe now they can booted Away by trimmingham looking for Marshall has Burns to deal with found himself on the wrong side of his man but he’s recovered well

Burs and uh oh Marshall might have done enough to win a throw for the Jamaicans Anglin justan angling F set had to sa hands I’ll com into this match coach hson also mentioned that uh he’s never concerned or he isn’t concerned in fact by the results of his fixt

Here more concerned about the individual performances that he sees well that’s been given away chance can be open up here a sloppy in the end from the reggy boys Ked a wonderful opportunity to go forward right just a bit indecisive will be through said if he did have the

Opportunity he would utilize several of his under 20 players however most of them still in action in the conquer calf qualifiers that are ongoing D Tobago of course uh just missing out losing the group Top spot to Canada this Week Angus eeve objective it might be similar but a bit different can you really believe coaches when they say they don’t care about the result it’s just like uh it’s just like uh of course telling your wife that uh she looks good when you know something in the dress doesn’t match

Up they do care and uh especially in a game of of uh this sort of rivalry and as they always say in sports winning is a mentality it’s a habit and it’s a part of an environment and you want to win football matches small-sided games in practice

All the way up to World Cup games you want to win that’s the bottom line yes there are mitigating factors within it all of course team performances individual performances tactics structure but all all in all the exercises to win Burns couldn’t find OB B was looking in behind the

Defense of course uh this match are not affecting FIFA rankings by any stretch be unlimited sub tions Etc so both coaches of course are given the flexibility to experiment also outside of the FIFA window and see on availability of several players playing overseas we talk about uh Team preparation and of course

Uh the recent displays of Caribbean teams in the region irrespective of age group and I know one of the factors is the ability to play these sorts of games more regularly when you start having that conversation you have to bring in the topic of travel in the Caribbean and how

Difficult it is how expensive it is you know as a player we played Grenada St Lucia Barbados and Guyana every Monday morning and in this sort of situation uh it’s uh been a bit of a chall because of the expensive nature of travel in the Caribbean and a big part of development

A big part of uh players getting better has being able to play these type of game that’s a brilliant ball well he’s SP some space here that’s good skill can he can he get in can’t get past F he does eventually and the Jamaicans are up and ahead

Dixon with the chicks and the dixan dance to celebrate and it’s One n it’s good attacking play poor defensive play but I’m quite sure if you support Jamaica you wouldn’t mind about the poor defensive play intelligent run by Dix we spoke about him at the half gets it in behind

Hamilton poor defending ball watching there but look at this for a bit of skill gets in puts his man down and then rolls it into the back of the net getting his action there Hamilton goes Dixon again passes it in it’s too close to fet and because of that he’s able to place

It in a back of the net he’s been impressive for most of this game James Dixon and certainly deserve to go on the score sheet he’s just scored one goal domestically the season Dixon cutting one now with the national team plays a SC football with and anded Gardens one of several anded Garden

Players on the starting lineup this afternoon oh how will the soo Warriors respond to the latest assault they have to attack certainly and they’d have to be a little bit more adventurous going forward mused out of possession there Kim Thomas Marshall living up to his name just marshalling a lot of the Midfield

Traffic conningham came on as a substitute and he’s done really well to pick out Ricardo Thomas and easily picked up by fet yeah that’s a terrific bit of skill there by Gibson to elude his man angland who’s uh now going to have a conversation with the referee and here comes

A a change for Jamaica looks like hibbott the man from Atlanta United Jaden hibbit will make his appearance for the reggy boys and he will replace Captain Foster but of course expected to make his Atlanta United debut first team soon after being drafted and uh well ryen Q Trinidad and

Tobago have decided to change their goalkeeper as well Adrian fet’s afternoon is over and in will come Christopher bigot the Defense Force shot stopper certainly a race uh for the number one position Trinidad and Tobago Marvin philli suddenly announcing his retirement just a couple months ago of course uh the emergence of uh

Emerging Talent Denzel Smith who’s been exceptional in the Nations league but we’ve seen goalkeepers pop up and of course for that man that say going in bigot and of course funet would probably like to retain his or at least get back in the Reckoning oh but called into action

Early and Singham while taking no chances Marshall Kill from Thomas conningham send it all the way back to the goalkeeper substitute linking up very well well this is inviting handy trimmingham though Marshall he skipped past one that’s a great idea deflected and again he’s forced the

Corner it’s been the man to make it happen Marshall but very similar to the first half Jamaica starting the more positive of the two teams they have already a goal to show for that and uh they’re looking to try to get a second now through this set play hey hey hey come here

Here it it oh the badging at the front door almost got in as well and somehow somewh allowed to sneak in the reggy boys Su maala just wants to know how come he didn’t find a that yeah had all the time in the world I know my good friend Colin Murray

Say that’s a Defender effort but as uh one of the senior officers in the defender Union I would say just uh missed a bit of time in there James sure he could live with that fair assessment meantime though Kim Thomas was on the receiving end of some

Treatment as the reggy boys might be calling some more officers to duty Angie Fletcher among those getting set to come in chiming Ham’s pass is cut out Thomas Marshall switches the point of the attack attack and he could get in here now the Jamaicans ball Dixon side netting came close he knows

It another good bit of play there by the Marshall Dixon Duo switch Feld ball Hamil doesn’t deal with it Dixon doesn’t even think twice puts his laces through it but doesn’t is not able to hit the target he does hit the target but the side of it and not the frame of

It big get looked a bit trouble but uh eventually it’s uh it’s going out that’s a interesting back pass there for a second maker looks first everything now the the game’s momentum’s changed the tempo has changed and uh certainly they’re the ones asking all the questions well that was a question that

Was asked by Romario gri gravity just not happening for him couldn’t keep it down as we will have some more changes Devonte Campbell and man from waterhous Fletcher set to come in as well as an opportunity for some hydration as well no Michael shaves just yet the 17-year-old still waiting for

His first senior cap in the meantime though well hydration will be foremost the minds of the players as they huddle along the water coolers played over an hour of football so far one change between and Tobago while regy boys have made a host of changes how do you suspect the water

Cooler talk might be at the moment want I think from a TR to perspective is uh they’ve lost the impetus they finished the first half certainly with their tails up and being on top and uh the Midfield where they started to have some sort of have some

Sort of uh Rhythm and movement that’s gone certainly in the second uh phase of this water break after this water break they will want to do better than that of course don’t forget you can download the sports Max app today get it on Google Play or download from the

Apple Store and of course you can watch all the action right here on the go downloading the sports Max app tell a friend well I think for Jamaica is more the same that uh tandem of uh Marshall and Dixon has paid a tremendous amount of dividends for them looks like

However I believe Marshall may have departed James Marshall one of the changes players coming off as uh water hoses Andrew Fletcher it’s com in that’s Cunningham Thomas can’t beat trimmingham anybody’s ball now Primus got something on it Dixon he’s changed Sides Now stancing away from challenges angeling well they done really well

Fletcher in a good area this could be number two well it came off the defender and uh well might not be over yet the nightmare just needs a yard of space and just needed a touch good work from The Substitute Devonte Campbell nobody could get their shoelaces on

It Foundation boards rattling at the moment Soo Warriors are shaken up at home finding space angling he got space to move into the Warriors Retreat Anglin running away from traffic top left of course he changes and this time it comes to nothing oh there’s a player down just out of your

Picture and uh well C Stewart looks in a bit of discomfort they have a view man and there we go Michael shaves 17 years old scored two goals in Trinidad and Tobago’s recent conquer CAF under 20 qualifying tournament and uh earned him chance to represent the senior

Team what a huge moment for the young man just a couple days ago he was playing at the u20 level and now the possibility of uh making his first Senior Team appearance all in one week and then next week he goes back to school speaking of school uh step Fatima

College are the champions of the secondary schools Football League of course which he played a big part in as well what a the season he’s having probably hopes it never ends of course Kylie ay another you Talent now plays his football at mon Pleasant in Jamaica also getting ready and set to

Perhaps come in well I imagined there would be some tired legs out there for both teams for that matter and uh keeping players fresh in this very hot conditions is important and I’m quite sure both coach is uh aware of that and of course uh we

Do this again on Sunday so certainly the energy levels have dropped a bit for m Tobago perspective and I’m sure coach angas would want to change that by bringing in fresh fresh legs and fresh ideas and Jamaica would want to continue on the upward trajectory that they’ve thrown so far in the second

Half Ricardo King might uh come in to replace M the stretcher God Stewart looks like his afternoon might be over King looks to come in certainly had a decent showing so far steart Richard King set to replace him well as you were as the action continues just about 16 and a half

Minutes is all that’s left in this contest still one change for the SOA Warriors and Jamaicans looking to change the score line but trimingham was well positioned shinal and Tobago will next be in action after this round of matches against Canada oneoff plane for the Copa America looking to secure their

Spot they’ve got that big match up against the US Nations League semi-final and well maest see the first yellow card of the match a good football day by Gibson paid the price for it though collected it here look at that Nifty angling say same to him good work

Friend but uh you’re not going anywhere to Sean anglen the first yellow card of the match well there he is now certainly want to go in the record books or something more positive as he gets them moving forward Campbell oh he’s done well Campbell still going well the old

Abracadabra but no magic in the end as it’s easy in the end for Christopher biger who well he gives it up Dixon needed a more decisive touch wasn’t there and K Thomas will come away with it oh the fluency in this match has certainly gone out the door the last few

Minutes but more physical than anything chev’s Hamilton toik as Mo gy was the intended target didn’t quite get to Him Devonte Campbell anglan finding more spce now and in behind Malala and Dixon well thought it had two-nil written all over it but there was a deflection and he will have to settle for a corner he’s been dangerous Dixon yeah and certainly looks the most likely

To score out of the 22 players on the pitch right now again good bit of play by the Jamaicans ball is cut back on top clever run by Dixon really wasn’t far off with that effort might have a second bite at the Cherry well that came across the face

And chevr as Hamilton was the only one there to greet it and a hefty tackle from Kim Thomas shows that the path of Devonte Campbell ended exactly where it did trinad and Tobago looks set to make three changes Jamal Jack Kali ay and Michael shave is among those set to come in

Well certainly had a good look couldn’t get the right connection so a 19y old a 17y old and a 36y old well set to take the pitch for Trinidad and Tobago but in the meantime though moose try to get them back level unsuccessfully heavy challenge there from

Burns couldn’t get away with it h though wasn’t pleased by the referee’s call more changes for Jamaica more changes for Trinidad and Tobago Emilio Roso will get his first appearance and he will replace Anglin justan angelin and Shamar Smith is the next man in and Su Malala

We’ll see the end of his afternoon for Trinidad and Tobago robt Primus his journey is done in comes Jamal Jack conquer Caribbean clup winner Central FC Kylie ay replaces Kai gavi makes his debut while the other debutant Justin OBU will be replaced by the 17-year-old Michael shes

Changes to top left as Jamaica push forward heavy touch it’s taking it away from Andre Fletcher shaves of course and ay 17 and 19 combined perhaps it’ll give you the age of uh almost give you the age the likes of the likes of Robert Primus and Jamal

Jack now there be a stoppage for an injury and it’s perhaps the first time he’s sat down and GCE assisted by Derek King and renal Caron good time to look at our Sports marks moment Sports marks at moment and well let’s see it’s this man Dixon slippery feet cool

Finish Gregory Isaac would be proud he’s a cool ruler also the man who gets our Sports Marx that moment they love It Hebert 19 years old was a 19th overall draft pick in the MLS of course uh Trinidad and to bagos tyes Spicer was the neveress number one draft pick could be number two for Jamaica though here oh cly made a hash of clearing the danger and eventually give up a corner

Pressure being piled on by the regy boys F the head but he couldn’t find a way to put them further ahead tix in that as accurate from a cranium as he was with his boot some moments ago burs will try to get more action going forward easy for hibit in the

End for the Jamaicans certainly had the best of exchanges in the second half likes of uh Alex Marshall and 19y old Jahim Dixon Dixon of course uh made his name being a prodigy in the ISA school boy football scoring a remarkable 32 goals hattick in the rural area Easter

The Costa Cup football final as well to guide Clarendon College to resounding 6-2 triumph over Glenn mahigh and H just been replaced will get a rest but he certainly has done his job so far chenil Thomas is the man replacing him while Cal Ming of the league leaders

Cavaliers will come in and he will replace Ricardo Thomas certainly have managed to deepen their pool recently the Jamaicans e a school boy football has produced many stars for the who went on to the national team Dixon one of the latest he bundles over Michael shaves one of trinal and Tobago’s

Latest and of course djon Whisper Richards certainly caught the eyes of many folks including Chelsea Shing his Issa school boy is oh here has another 19y old hbert Burns shaves cim Thomas and HIIT is there game increasingly becoming stretched now Jamaicans looking to exploit C has he F the way through

Here Jason right tried to muscle his way through can get past trimmingham Thomas heavy touch and uh possession gifted back to the Jamaicans oh the clock ticking down at the moment the reggy boys look set to take a one- nil victory in P spin unless so Warriors can respond and

They are responding to Kylie ay what a run that was certainly took Kyle Ming for a Sprint never want to Sprint with Jamaicans always seem to win those battles m well this is flicked on dangerous area Thomas trying to keep it alive and uh well just ran out of real estate in the End one by Jack Cunningham and uh Rond Gibson an immovable Force until he was moved just s it’s no or never for the SOA Warriors just seem to lack the fluency of play through the middle course no Alvin Jones has remained on the bench marcket as well on use

Today Michelle pun angeron and Kev Godard all not utilized by Ang today 22 seconds remains of the 90 minutes 4 minutes says what will be added to that so still time remaining perhaps to the regy boys to add more insult to injury SOA Warriors to somehow find The Equalizer in this match

Certainly got the resources to do It Thomas he got shaves ahead of him oh has made a delicious run ahead forward looking for Thomas to release that one now oh shaves again trying to run in behind couldn’t pick him up that time W how about that from Christopher bigot course the younger brother former National Senior Team goalkeeper Cleon

John all the fun space in and they could be in behind the VTE Campbell to make it two oh what a stop that was some bigot needed to be big he was world class safe there by the Defense Force custodian had to get down low quickly and he did do

That again being able to get fast burs Campell there bearing down and bigot goal that is a fine save by big and goal easy could have made it 2-0 instead bigot uh makes it one well they’re calling for a change for Liam Burns and uh might just get a sight

Of Alvin Jones to the remaining one and a half minutes Alvin Jones of course famous for the call that knocked the us out of World Cup contention several years ago younger brother of Seattle Sounders for former Seattle Sounders midfielder Jovin Jones St up come again Jones gets his first B of

Action it’s a defensive motion inside the final minute of what was gifted to us spoons completing his debut himer hamson Al the will be the happy of the coaches at the end of 90 minutes of course this contest used by both teams to have a look at players who will

Be added to the squads for the various competitions and 90 minutes is over and the Jamaicans hold a oneup advantage on the SOA Warriors and it’s a goal by J te Dixon a 19-year-old former school boy that separates them at the end of 90 minutes a happy outing in Port of Spain

For the reggy boys disappointing showing from the home team Soo Warriors here at the hazley Crawford Stadium because at fulltime Jamaica lead by one goal to nil of course these teams will meet again on Sunday in a second friendly International that will take place at the Larry G Stadium of course that match

Will be open to fans this match of course uh was a closed door encounter so to speak with preparations happening here at the hle Crawford Stadium for the KFA games Charles which takes place tomorrow all right enough of that let’s look back at the 90 minutes and see some of the

Moments that made it also special started with the Pleasantries and then the new faces New Blood being added for both these teams several players making debut including that man to your right Cheves Hamilton K Thomas was the first to get the ball rolling so to speak and goalkeeper Foster doing enough to lift it over the top later on it was

The man making his debut Justin aiku just missing the mark the top corner and then Kim Thomas and Rondell Gibson threatened from set pieces remain gold that’s at halftime second half we’ll see the soo Warriors run flat but guess who didn’t reggy boys and Dixon finding a way past Adrian font setting

Goal the 19y old former Clarendon man getting a goal for the Jamaica Senior Team much mentioned of tixon as a future Talent showing he’s got all the skill sets and uh well they certainly enjoyed it and it was a Jamaicans who continued to threaten Dixon again finding a way in behind this time

Only finding the side netting and at the close halfs one of the best chances of the match fell to Devonte Campbell but the goalkeeper Christopher bigot oh he was a big man in goal one goal good enough for the reggy boys as they win this fixture by one goal to nil

All right we’re a numbers team and we look at the numbers and Jamaica overturning the first half advantage in terms of shots they lead in the shots category shots on target well that went to them as well well very physical game 19 Fs in total 11 going to

The regy boys and saves between Tad and Tobago making the majority of saves One n though to Jamaica and that was enough for them to hold the advantage Brent Sancho standing by with Coach Anga coach uh yes yes results wise disappointing but your assessment of the 90 minutes plus I wasn’t disappointed at

All actually we had a lot of players out there who playing at this level for the very very first time and I thought that they aced themselves very well and we were in the game for the most part and uh we give a away a sloppy goal and uh

That that’s the difference in the game well you have been echoing sentiments for quite a long time about these sorts of games for our local players what do you hope to achieve this weekend with the two friendlies that has been well to give people exposure I realize we made

Minimum amount of changes because we wanted to expose the guys as much as possible young burns and these guys would have never played at this level before so this is a good exercise for them to understand the pace of the game going forward and then to give the guys

Who are more established a run out in going into the um play out tournament well not uh necessarily moving away from the the team aspect of the game Rondell Gibson his performance today your thoughts yeah um he was good on the ball when he came on we started to believe a

Little bit more um he he was not afraid to get on the ball that the type of players that we are looking for um to be that brave and and show themselves and I think he was he definitely change the game when he came on well coach all the

Best in the next fixture on Sunday and of course with that all important game against Canada thanks brother thanks angas of now uh join coach uh I know uh coach Gordon results in these sorts of situations not really mattering you had a record 13 debutants here today this

Afternoon one Sean in particular in Young Dixon of course a young man from claran college your assessment and his performance first um first of all you know um games like this are always tough play against you know our friendly neighbors but football wise you know we

Got to we got to battle on the pitch I think it was a good game um both teams I think needed the same objective you know expose these boys as much as possible and I think we got that as you look forward to the second fixure on Sunday

Uh what do you hope to get out of the this weekend I’m just keep exposing the guys um when you see a personal like Kim on his debut score goal that’s that’s amazing that’s that the think type of things you want um the transition from school boy football into International

Football and I think he aced himself well 13 changes um young jayen in a goal also 17 years old so it was very good for us and we talk about and drilling down into the game itself uh really came to life in the second half what was said

At halftime um it’s just to tell the guys to to to stay on the front foot um I think the latter part of the first half we kind of back off a bit and gave that some space to play um it’s not our style so we wanted to be on a front foot

Um made some adjustment made some changes and and it worked for us thank you very much coach and all the best on Sunday and of course all the best on that all important conquer C tie against USA thank you sir well what a matchup 1 n the final score Jamaica Trinidad and

Tobago both coaches speaking to the benefits of the exposure that the young players got I mean what what does this mean for football in our region yeah it’s something that is definitely missing when you look at the the national teams and across the region not being able to play these kind of

Friendlies it because we saw some of the players that both play in the JPL and in the ttfl being able to play at this in when you know the mistake you learn from these sorts of games Anga talk about leaving them in for that 90-minute period so they can get a full

International game this exercise forget the score the exercise is extremely important for the development of both players you talk about the young person has been on show here this afternoon on Bo camps it’s exceptional it’s great for the game and it was good to see and even from the secondary schools football

Level to be in the National level as well really impressive James your thoughts yeah I agree with Brent and I I agree with kot Angus as well an exercise uh where the score doesn’t matter you know it’s just an opportunity to give players who necessarily would not have

Been exposed to this level of football a run out how well they aced themselves well that’s up to them but I think more games like these are necessary particularly for Trinidad and tobo and Jamaica to play against each other regularly they have been undoubtedly the two best teams in the Caribbean and the

Highest level of football as well well we look forward to Sunday where we’re actually going to have fans so we encourage all the fans to come out and support your favorite whether it’s Trinidad and Tobago or Jamaica but let’s talk about Sunday what would either coach want to do moving into that

Matchup well I think both coaches would arguably feel their stronger lineup when you see the likes of course of Alvin Jones and Dwayne mockett not starting and of course some Karen Ming and others for Jamaica not started would suggest that the stronger lineup have been not

Utilized here today so expect to see it of course a crowd that we be partisan for the TR Tobago May up the tempo of the game and have a little bit more bite into it and I think from that aspect of it you may see uh a little bit higher

Tempo of football at Del larom Stadium well James you’ve been to all of the matches and you’ve seen the impact fans can have do you think the fans will have an impact on the game Sunday yeah most definitely and it’s it’s a week that we saw record crowds coming out to watch

The under 20 team play and then we’ve got the senior team in action I think it it just aers world for football here in the Caribbean where they can see high quality matches top International Teams coming never mind that many of the Jamaica players are locally based

Players many people follow the JPL right here in Trinidad and too it’s a good quality of football and I expect that the fans will come out and make it you know the occasion that it that we expect well whether it’s ttfl or JPL you can get all the action on the sports marks

App this is where we wrap it up here at the hazley Crawford Stadium join us on Sunday Sunday 3rd March Trinidad and Tobago versus Jamaica another matchup we head to the Larry Gom Stadium join us for the action live in the stadium or live right here on Sports marks on

Behalf of the entire team thank you for watching final score today Jamaica 1 Trinidad and Tobago [Applause] nil [Applause] all
