TRINIDAD and Tobago Football Association (TTFA) president Kieron Edwards has made it emphatically clear that players did not break camp to attend Bare Vybez, a Juneteenth Afro-Caribbean-themed party at Tikila’s Bar in Houston on June 19.

He was speaking to Newsday on June 22, in a response to a Trinidad Guardian article titled T&T footballers break camp to party after disastrous start to Gold Cup.

TT are currently bottom of Group D following a 5-0 defeat to USA (June 15) and a 1-1 draw with ten-man Haiti (June 19). However, a win for TT against Saudi Arabia in their final group match on June 22 coupled with a USA win over Haiti would be enough for TT to advance to the quarter-finals.
