The Campaign

World Cup 2006

Trinidad and Tobago's campaign never truly ignited, and a group stage exit brought an early end to their World Cup hopes. Goals proved hard to come by, with just 0 in 3 matches, and their lack of firepower ultimately told.

The Defining Moment

Trinidad and Tobago 2006

Trinidad and Tobago endured a difficult group stage, unable to advance despite moments of resistance. Their campaign featured a 0-0 draw with Sweden, a 0-2 defeat against England, and a 0-2 defeat against Paraguay. Trinidad and Tobago's tournament ended at the first round, a campaign that never truly got going.
