A 29th minute goal from German 2nd Bundesliga Club Darmstadt 98 new signee Joevin Jones was enough to seal a 1-0 victory for T&T over Guadeloupe at the Pierre Antonius Stadium in Guadeloupe, yesterday.

The in-form left wing-back has already racked up 3 goals for his new club in 9 starts and is carrying over his goalscoring form into the national team quite remarkable.

T&T has not lost to their French neighbours since 1989 and Joevin's 29th minute item in-front of 2,500 screaming fans were enough to protect it's favourable record over Guadeloupe and give coach Dennis Lawrence his first away win in 14 months as head coach.

It was reported that both T&T and Guadeloupe finished the game with 10-men after referee Jean-Pierre Janvilliers dished out two direct red cards for an altercation between T&T's Leston Paul and Guadeloupe's Dimitri Bolivar.

Guadeloupe's coach Jocelyn Angloma, told it's official website (liguefoot-guadeloupe.fff.fr): "As I said in the week, the main thing was not to be ridiculous. We have not been. The players responded even though the team opposite was of a higher level. It was important that the fans see the potential of our young people. They applauded while we lost. It means something. Now, these young players must believe in their qualities and work."

Trinidad and Tobago will end their French Caribbean tour tomorrow when they face Martinique from 6pm in that country.

FINAL: Guadeloupe 0-1 Trinidad and Tobago. Goal scored by Joevin Jones in the 29th minute.
