00:00I've got to say, we've come across Trinidad and Tobago many times now, and they're improving
00:24in every game. They're getting better and better. I've been very unlucky, I thought, twice
00:30against Curacao. So we know this is not going to be easy tomorrow in a team that, yeah, Trinidad
00:40have to fight to win. You know, Trinidad is very good, very strong, powerful with the ball.
00:46We've got very good individual players who can change a game, can make something from
00:52nothing. And so we need to defend well. If we don't defend well, then we risk the chance
01:04of losing.
01:16From all the local players, all the local staff, who have families involved, who are still
01:22got family missing. You know, we said, what can we do? And everybody on the island, everybody
01:30who's a Jamaican around the world must be thinking, what can I do? What can we do to make the situation
01:38better? And I think Damien Lowe summed it up in the best possible way that the only way
01:46that we can help the Jamaican people who are suffering at the moment is to put a smile on their
01:54face. To put a smile on their face would be World Cup qualification. So that's the motivation
02:00motivation that we have.
