At the Marvin Lee Stadium, Centre of Excellence, Macoya last week Trinidad & Tobago National Women Team qualified at the top of Group F for the Gold Cup 2010. The Soca Princesses finished un-defeated beating Guyana, Barbados and St Lucia, conceding just 1 goal and scoring 14. The T&T attack was led by the return of Ahkeela "Lady Latapy" Mollon who is based in Sweden. Her constant run down the flanks, through the middle and crosses tormented opposing defenses. The T&T Team was in general to quick, strong and fit for their opponents, and Tobago-born Kennya Cordner showed her tenacity, speed and goal-scoring ability from either the left flank or as a centre forward.
Guyana finished 2nd with a Team consisting of mostly foreign-based players, the team from Guyana showed great composure and were the 2nd leading scorers with 11 goals for and conceding only 3 (to T&T).
Trinidad & Tobago ladies will now move on to the next phase of Gold Cup qualifying, and play in the Central American and Caribbean (CAC) games to be held in Puerto Rico from July 17th to August 1st.
