Facts
• Trinidad and Tobago are embarking on their 11th FIFA World Cup™ campaign since 1966. They missed out narrowly on qualifying in 1974, and in 1990 came tantalisingly close to going to Italy but were beaten 1-0 in their final qualifying match by the United States.
• Trinidad and Tobago's most famous footballer is Dwight Yorke, who plays for Blackburn Rovers in the English Premier League. The Caribbean islands, which have a population of more than one million inhabitants, enjoyed their best win more than 30 years ago, beating Antigua and Barbuda 11-1.
• The national team took their worst defeat more recently. In 2000 they lost 7-0 to Mexico in the Aztec Stadium in Mexico City.
