Draw puts T&T in final, Cuba reach Gold Cup

MONTEGO BAY, Jamaica – Trinidad and Tobago’s Soca Warriors crawled into the final of the CFU Caribbean Cup after playing to a disappointing nil-all stalemate with title-holders Cuba here Saturday.

In a replay of the 2012 final in Antigua, neither side could find a way through and were forced to settle for a share of the points.

This left T&T as Group A winners with seven points and they will now await the winners off Group B, to known their opponents in Tuesday’s final.

Cuba, meanwhile, finished second in Group A on five points and qualified for the CONCACAF Gold Cup in the United States next year.

The Spanish-speaking Caribbean side had the better of the chances in the contest where scoring opportunities proved rare, and T&T were left thanking their goalkeeper Jan-Michael Williams for allowing them to scrape the point.
