Edwards Wins 76th Cap - Ipswich Town News

New signing Carlos Edwards won his 76th Trinidad and Tobago cap as his side lost 1-0 to the US in Port of Spain last night. Trinidad and Tobago remain bottom of the North, Central America and Caribbean qualifying group and have no chance of reaching South Africa next summer.

According to reports, Edwards, playing in midfield rather than at full-back where he was employed against Honduras at the weekend, caused the US defenders more than a few problems with his pace down either flank.

The 30-year-old is due to join up with the Town squad when they travel to Middlesbrough on Friday and looks unlikely to start at the Riverside as he is yet to train with his new team-mates.
