Trinidadians prepare for Cup celebrations

Sporting fans in the Caribbean are renowned for being loud and colourful supporters, with stadiums packed with kettle and steelpan drum-banging men and women at West Indies cricket matches around the world.

Football is no different, as Jamaica’s World Cup supporters showed four years ago in Japan and Korea.

But this time around, it’s Trinidad and Tobago’s turn.

These tiny twin islands have made it to Germany 2006.. after beating Guatemala, Panama and Bahrain to qualify in the final 32. They’re the smallest nation ever to make it to the World Cup finals.

And, as Adam Connors reports, their Australian supporters are optimistic, yet also realistic and set for a full month of partying.
