Blackdude Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 I would pick St Kitts & Nevis and Martinique in group E. Trinidad & St V&G in Group F. (Feel like Haiti will choke). Finally Suriname and Cuba in group G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarnado1555362291 Posted November 6, 2010 Author Share Posted November 6, 2010 Trinidad and Togago have booked their spot in the finals with wins over Saint Vincent (6-2) and Guyana (2-1). The second birth from Group F will go to either Haiti or Guyana on the last match day. Guyana must win against St. Vincent and outscore Haiti by at least 3 goals to advance. http://dcc.digicelfootball.com/en/news/50-dcc-match-31-trinidad-tobago-2-guyana-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarnado1555362291 Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 Looks like it's going to tiebreakers to decide whether Haiti or Guyana go through. -Both tied on points -both have scored the same number of goals -Guyana conceded fewer goals The second place finisher in Group F is going to be Guyana!

Blackdude Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Group G started. Cuba won 4-2 against Dominica and Antigua beat Suriname 2-1. Tomorrow Suriname play Cuba in a pretty much must win for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdroze Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Final day of group G action on Sunday: despite thumping Dominica 5-0 and ending up with the best GF/GA in the group, Suriname fail to qualify for the final group stage. Cuba plays to a 0-0 draw with Antigua & Barbuda, and both of these teams advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarnado1555362291 Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 Digicel Cup Finals “the World Cup for the Caribbean” http://dcc.digicelfootball.com/en/news/62-digicel-cup-qualifiers-set-up-dramatic-finals Tuesday, November 16th 2010 – Kingston, Jamaica: The qualification phase – stage one and two – of the Digicel Caribbean Cup came to a close on Sunday marking a break in the tournament before the final kick off on November 26th in host country, Martinique. So far, a total of 39 matches have been played, 143 goals conceded, an average of 4750 spectators per match and a record-breaking win for the Dominican Republic with 17-0 against the British Virgin Islands. However, even 17 goals were not enough to see them through. In fact, of the eight teams that are now through to the finals, only one team – Guyana – have come through from stage one. The Golden Jaguars faced seven Caribbean sides – topping Group C in Suriname and coming second place behind hosts Trinidad & Tobago in Group F. Overall, they have won five of seven games, lost one and drew 0-0 against a disappointing Haiti. As a result, Guyana are now ranked number 86 in the FIFA world rankings – their highest position ever. In addition, the Golden Jaguars are ranked number two in the Caribbean Football Union (CFU) rankings – beating Trinidad & Tobago. Digicel Group Head of Sponsorship, Karl Donnelly, said; “We’ve witnessed some excellent displays of the beautiful game since the tournament kicked off in October. With that, many teams – such as Guyana – have jumped up the leader board in the CFU rankings as well as in the FIFA world rankings which is fantastic for the countries and the players themselves. I’m looking forward to seeing even more exciting football as we head into the final eight.” Guyana will now face Guadeloupe, Antigua & Barbuda and current champions, Jamaica, in Group I which kicks off on Saturday, November 27th 2010. Guadeloupe head into the final stage with an unbeaten record from Group E, having defeated Grenada 3-0, Puerto Rico 3-2 and St. Kitts & Nevis 2-1. Two 0-0 draws against Cuba and Dominica and a 2-1 win over Suriname were enough to put Antigua & Barbuda through following an exciting Group G held in the Antigua Recreation Grounds in St. John’s. Hosts, Martinique, take on Grenada, Cuba and former champions Trinidad & Tobago in Group H. It is 11 years since the Soca Warriors were Caribbean champions and their unbeaten run in Group F means they are one to watch for the title this year. Latapy’s side thrashed Haiti 4-0, St. Vincent & the Grenadines 6-2 and Guyana 2-1 in the Mannie Ramjohn Stadium. Grenada and Cuba both enjoyed a solid progression from their respective Groups E and G. The winners and runners-up of Groups H and I will go forward to play in the semi-finals on Friday, December 3rd in the Pierre Aliker Stadium in Martinique. The Champions of the Digicel Caribbean Cup 2010 will be decided when the final takes place on Sunday, December 5th – also in the Pierre Aliker Stadium. The final matches will be aired live on free to air TV and radio while Groups H and I will be aired on a delayed basis.

rdroze Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Wow, Cuba beating T&T is huge for them. That might just help push Cuba into the top 8 in CONCACAF (as of May 2011), with T&T falling out. The other result, Martinique drawing with Grenada isn't horrible for Canada, though it would have been nice to see Martinique win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdroze Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 The results against Martinique and Guadeloupe do not affect FIFA rankings as those French departments are not FIFA members. Actually, I do realize that. Instead, I was hoping that Martinique & Guadeloupe would both advance, so as to "negate" as many games as possible from this whole tournament, and thereby reduce the opportunity for the other (FIFA) nations to rack up the ratings points. Canada doesn't get these types of games, so I really wish the other nations didn't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianSoccerFan Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Apparently Grenada and Cuba just passed the ball about for 90 minutes playing to a scoreless draw so both would advance. It's the fault of the tournament format. Even if they can't play both games at the same time, the order of the games should've been switched so that Grenada and Cuba would be forced to play honest.

jpg75 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Guadeloupe 1-0 Antigua & Barbuda Guyana 0-4 Jamaica Jamaica 1st, Guadeloupe 2nd. That means it's Jamaica-Grenada and Cuba-Guadeloupe in the SF's. As long as Jamaica beats Grenada in regulation time and Cuba does not win the tournament (or lose in ET or shootout) we don't have to worry about Cuba and Grenada getting more points.

rdroze Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Semi-finals yesterday: Cuba 1 - 2 Guadeloupe Jamaica 2 - 1 Grenada So non-FIFA entry Guadeloupe has a chance to win the Caribbean Championship. Unfortunately there is a 3rd place match, so either Cuba or Grenada will indeed pick up some more points. Also, as it hasn't been mentioned explicitly in this thread, let me remind that this tournament serves as the qualifying for next summer's Gold Cup, and the four semifinalists mentioned here will be attending GC 2011. Trinidad & Tobago will not be at the Gold Cup next year. (Suck it, Jack.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 So the field now is Canada USA Mexico Cuba Guadeloupe Jamaica Grenada 5 from Central America... I feel like we really miss out by not having these tournaments... we should have a North American championship biannually between Canada, Mexico and the USA.
