Barbados move up FIFA rankings

BUOYED BY Barbados’ move up the FIFA rankings by ten places, senior men’s national head coach Russell “The Little Magician” Latapy says he wants to see the Tridents taking on higher-ranked teams. 

The Barbados Tridents are now positioned at 160 along with Grenada in the latest rankings following their 4-0 away victory against the United States Virgin Islands (USVI) in St Croix earlier this month after edging St Martin 1-0 at home.

“The players have to take the credit for it because they have bought into what we are trying to do. It’s fair play to the players that they have committed themselves to what we’re trying to achieve and develop,” Latapy said. (EZS)
