MIAMI, Florida – A chance for Caribbean Cup glory will be at stake on Wednesday night when Cavalier of Jamaica host Surinamese club Robinhood in the second leg of the 2023 Concacaf Caribbean Cup Final at the National Stadium in Kingston, Jamaica.
The two sides battled in the first leg last week in Suriname, with Robinhood emerging with a 1-0 victory thanks to a sensational second half strike from Dimitrio Andro.
Back on home soil, Cavalier will look to turn the tables and be the ones who secure the Caribbean Cup title and also confirm their place in the 2024 Concacaf Champions Cup Round of 16.
They certainly have the firepower to swing the tie in their favor. Look no further than tournament-leading scorer Shaniel Thomas, who has eight goals in the team’s seven matches in the tournament.
Jalmaro Calvin is also a threat with three goals and three assists, while Gadail Irving leads the team in passes (175) and ball recoveries (11).
SV Robinhood have been on a remarkable run ever since they captured the 2023 Concacaf Caribbean Club Shield and now they are win or a draw from lifting the Caribbean Cup.
Shaquille Cairo has been the figure of this team since the start, with five goals, but players such as Andro and Renske Adipi have proven invaluable.
Andro has completed 116 passes and made six ball recoveries in the tournament, while Adipi has amassed 433 passes and seven ball recoveries.
An exciting night awaits in the Jamaican capital to determine who will be kings of the Caribbean.
