By finishing second, Netherlands Antilles will go to play in Norceca-G round in Orlando, United States against Costa Rica, the home team and the winner of the Norceca-D next week in Barbados.

“We go to Cuba with the idea of reaching the Play-off Round and once we get there then to beat Mexico and Costa Rica and get into the Finals in Japan,” said Francisco Cruz, the coach of Trinidad & Tobago. “We have never won against those teams but it is time to test the level we have attained.”
