TRINIDAD and Tobago's men's football team opened the final round of qualifying for the Fifa 2026 World Cup with a goalless draw against Curacao in a hard-fought encounter at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Mucurapo, on September 5.

In what was a physical and feisty battle for turf for 90 minutes, TT were just unable to breach the Curacao defence despite a spirited second-half showing which featured chances for attackers Levi Garcia, Tyrese Spicer and Dante Sealy.

With fellow Group B team Jamaica starting the final round with a thumping 4-0 win away to Bermuda on September 5, coach Dwight Yorke's charges may feel they let one get away against the visitors who rarely threatened after the interval.
