Sport is an up and down thing. I was reading an article, albeit on US football fans, that says:
"Sports fans are happier...". Bullshit..!! At least some of it. I'm no football coach but I know and love the beeeooootiphul game. The article in the header link was the reporting closest to the game I just saw.
Trinidad looked the same as a warmup they had recently vs Haiti. This time though, the defence had gaping holes in it due to defenders trying to support the middle. Even trying to be midfielders. I think T&T are trying to find their style of play that will let them win games. I hope they find it before Guatemala on March 26th. This 2005 Digicel tournament however is not important, World Cup Qualifying is. Trinidad and Tobago has a proud record in this regional tournament. (see below)
Jamaica, having bowed out of WC qualifying wants to prove that they are still the best team in the region having qualified for the world cup before. So dey coming hard.
Theobald and Seabra came on as subs and the effect were immediate. We played better. Seabra played an overlapping left back, sometimes playing too high up leaving the right flank wide open, reminiscent of the dreadlocked Brian Williams. Seabra is a naturally talented left side midfielder, why was he put there?
Synopsis of TT game as seen so far:
TT plays the first 15 minutes of the first half and shuts down, like dey confused.
Come out hard for the second half and dominates the game, provide flashes of brilliance, but poor finishing in the box.
Start Theobald and Seabra, let Nakhid assist the coach, especially in team finishing (He's 41 years old dammit!). Coach to play for the entire 90 minutes. Get a sports psychologist assigned to the team. At the highest level, skill level averages out, the game is won in the mind.
