Associated Press

HAMILTON, Bermuda — Trinidad and Tobago advanced to the regional semifinals of World Cup qualifying, winning 2-0 at Bermuda tonight behind goals from Darryl Roberts and Stern John.

The Soca Warriors, who competed in their first World Cup two years ago, won the home-and-home, total-goals series 3-2 after getting upset 2-1 at home last weekend. T&T is ranked 87th in the world while Bermuda is 139th.

Roberts scored in the 10th minute when he turned inside the 6-yard box. John added the second goal in the 69th, heading in Keon Daniel's cross.

Trinidad and Tobago will be in a semifinal group with the United States, Cuba and Guatemala. The semis start in mid-August.
