Jorsling earns Caledonia CFU spot

 

They suffered a 2-1 upset defeat against the bottom of the table ‘Lawmen’ with comeback goals by Dexter Alleyne (40th minute) and Trent Noel (78th minute) after Hashim Arcia’s opening item in the 15th minute for the ‘Savonnetta Boys’. Although safely qualifying for the CFU tournament by finishing second, the defeat against Police saw Connection drop off the top of the regular Digicel Pro League Championship table into second with 21 points. Caledonia now leads the standings with 23 points, Adam’s Construction San Juan Jabloteh (20 points) in third, T&TEC FC (19 points) in fourth and Defence Force (16 points) in fifth. The Jamaal Shabazz-coached Caledonia, which debuted in the CFU tournament last season, showed greater intent against the Dexter Cyrus coached T&TEC. Jorsling fired Caledonia ahead on the hour mark, turning and blasting past Phillip to find the far post for the match winner following a decent build-up by the Morvant/Laventille club. In the end, T&TEC, despite being disappointed over the result, remained optimistic over the unofficial talk of a “special token” which would see them join Caledonia and W Connection in this season’s CFU Club Championship.
