Trinidad and Tobago’s men’s football team faced a challenging 1-1 draw against Curacao in their FIFA 2026 World Cup qualifier on October 14, prompting calls for a more decisive approach in front of goal. Playmaker Kevin Molino and flanker Tyrese Spicer emphasized the need for greater consistency and focus to convert opportunities into victories. The match, held in Willemstad, saw Curacao take an early lead, but Spicer’s equalizer in the 58th minute, assisted by Molino, kept TT in contention. Despite dominating with seven shots on target compared to Curacao’s one, TT failed to secure the win, leaving them third in Group B of Concacaf’s final qualifying round. Curacao, now second, trails Jamaica, who surged to the top with a 4-0 victory over Bermuda. Spicer highlighted the team’s potential but stressed the importance of maintaining structure and capitalizing on momentum. Molino, returning from suspension, echoed these sentiments, noting the team’s tendency to concede avoidable goals. With crucial home matches against Jamaica and Bermuda in November, TT remains optimistic about their chances. Molino urged fans to continue their support, promising a relentless effort to secure the necessary points for qualification.
