The Soca Warriors hold Sweden at the break in a close encounter

HALF-TIME:
Trinidad & Tobago are holding Sweden to 0-0 at the break, with Dwight Yorke playing great in a holding midfielders role. Breaking up attacks and then setting up the Soca Warriors wingers and strikers on their way.
Henrik Larsson and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have looked lively and called Shaka Hislop into two or three excellent stops, but T&T do not look out of their depth in this, their first World Cup game ever.
In the second half I expect Sweden to show more urgency about themselves because this is a must win for them but I wouldn't be surprised if Trinidad & Tobago were to snatch a shocking victory.

SCORE: Sweden 0-0 Trinidad & Tobago

[7even]

I want a draw, especially a 0 – 0.

Soca Warrior, Avery John, sent on his way!

RED CARD:[/color] AVERY JOHN (T&T) - 47mins
After picking up his second yellow for two reckless tackles Avery John has been sent on his way. It will prove difficult for T&T now, and the best they can hope for is a draw.

SCORE: Sweden 0-0 Trinidad & Tobago

A draw would do England good and proper, and would for me mean we are qualifying unless of a major fuck up!

[Busby Boy]

Dwight Yorke is immense today. He is winning every ball, every header, every tackle, everything. He is playing in a defensive midfield position, you think Fergie might be giving him a call for a sensational return to OT ;D ... doubt it some what!

SUBSTITUTION:
C.SAMUEL off for C.GLEN (T&T)

T&T interestingly bring on another striker once going a man down, I'd like to see how this shapes out.

‘The best form of defense is attack ‘ lol, who knows.

Oh my, T and T nearly scored. Very, very close.

[Chris]

Fook me that Glen bloke just hit the bar from a stupid angle, very close to seeing Sweden 1-0 down.

[Busby Boy]

T&T COME CLOSE

FLASHPOINT: 58mins
Subsitute Cordell Glen strikes the frame of crossbar and post as T&T hit Sweden on the break, the closest we have come to a goal here in Dortmund.
Immediately on the break Larsson shoots only for Shaka Hislop to deny him yet again with a spectacular close range stop.

SCORE: Sweden 0-0 Trinidad & Tobago

[Busby Boy]

Sweden appear to be changing around into a more attacking formation.

SUBSTITUTION: - 61mins
A SVENSSON off for M ALLBACK (SWE)
The former-Aston Villa man replaces Svensson as Sweden go for the kill.

SCORE: Sweden 0-0 Trinidad & Tobago

[Chris]

Anyone else feeling this is going to be a draw?

[7even]

I bloody hope so mate. I really do.

[Busby Boy]

T&T continue to handle the Swedes

SUBSTITUTIONS: - 78mins
WILHELMSSON off for JONSON (SWE)
LINDEROTH off for KALLSTROM (SWE)

FLASHPOINTS:
-Shaka Hislop with another herois display and to think he is only playing because the number one was injured in the warm-up.
-Sweden are getting frustrated now after chance after chance goes begging including a Ljungberg cross across an empty net.

SCORE: Sweden 0-0 Trinidad & Tobago

[Busby Boy]

I hope so too, T&T are reminding me of Wigan last season. Despite sending off's, goal down, etc they continue to play their way and attack, surprising people in the process.
I really hope they hold onto this draw.

[Chris]

Absolute legends, give them all a palm tree ;D
