T&T Make Play-Off

Wrexham may yet have a representative at next year's World Cup, as Trinidad & Tobago beat Mexico 2-1 last night to set up a play-off against Bahrain for a place in Germany.
It would be nice to see Dennis Lawrence playing in a World Cup, so best of luck to the Soca Warriors.

Apparently Bahrain got through via some dodge refereeing and decisions by Fifa. Check out the link from this post on Blogdroed:

Uzbekistan shot themselves in the foot. They beat Bahrain 1-0 in the first leg and lodged a protest because a ref screwed up an encroachment call against them. Instead of taking the 1-0 win and running with it, they lodged a protest and FIFA made them replay the game, which they drew 1-1. The second leg drew 0-0 and Bahrain advanced on away goals.
