Trinidad and Tobago managed to pull of an astonishing 0-0 draw against a sweedish side that were predcted to shine. The team from the Caribean also had to play the second half with only ten men after their left back was sent off for a second bookable offence after just 30 seconds into the second period. Now that they have shown waht they can do, both defencivley and on the attack (They hit the crossbar from what seemed an impossible angle) and have also shown that they may actually pose more of a threat to England on Thursday that many may have expected, but can Trinidad and Tobago keep up the good work?

I think the game against sweden is an advantage to england since now they know not to understimate Trinidad and Tobago.
Things to keep in mind is that Trinidad and Tobago barely had control of the ball, they just did a good job not letting Sweden score but as to chances that Trinidad and Tobago had to score, they were few.
Now England knows not to understimate the team and I think that will play a role in favor of England.

Heck Yes! I definatly think Trinidad and Tobago pose a threat to England because of the experience they have in the Premiership. Dwight Yorke and Shaka Hislop have years and years of experience (and in Yorke's case, success) in the Premiership and they know how most of these player's tick, especially former and some current Manchester United (David Beckham, Rio Ferdinand, Gary Neville) and West Ham United (Frank Lampard, Joe Cole, Michael Carrick,Wayne Bridge(?)) players . This, without a doubt, will help bring Trinidad and Tobago closer to their dream of beating England.
Although I like England, I am cheering for T&T because I am a Trini.
Go T&T!!

They pose a threat not only to england but also to other nations who might be facing them. They have played well and showed what they can do.Like all teams, they will play their best in every game. England on the other hand doesn't seem like their doing their best. England is a very good team especially with the three lions. Anything can happen on the field(like what happend to Michael Owen(england)). All they can do is play their best and have lots of FUN!!!

Trinidad and Tobago did well, I was happy to see them beat the Swedes but I don't think they pose a threat to England. Unless Sven takes Owen off again like an idiot.

Anything is possible in the World Cup. The games are played on the field. No matter what, I hope it's a great match between both teams. I do think that Rooney needs to play for England to win.

They do not really pose that much of a threat. It will be an interesting game. I think that England will win.
