With a win, the Surinamese club will not only secure a place in the final, but will also qualify for the Concacaf Caribbean Cup 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"dropcap \" style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; border-color: #ffffff;\">R<\/span>obinhood convincingly qualified for the last four by defeating Guyana&#8217;s Slingerz FC 4-0 on Tuesday at the Larry Gomes Stadium in Trinidad and Tobago. Renske Adipi opened the scoring in the 37th minute with a long-range shot. After the break, the red-and-greens extended their lead through Leandro Rodrigues, Dimitrio Andro and Ravelo Zijler.<\/p>\n<p>Mount Pleasant reached the semi-finals by defeating Weymouth Wales FC of Barbados 1-0. Joseph Marreno scored the match&#8217;s only goal in the 67th minute.<\/p>\n<p>The Jamaicans are regarded as strong opponents. Mount Pleasant are the reigning Concacaf Caribbean Cup champions. The club captured the regional title in 2025 by defeating Universidad O&amp;M FC from the Dominican Republic 3-2 over two matches. Robinhood won the same tournament in 2023 and is therefore also among the Caribbean&#8217;s recent champions.<\/p>\n<p>There is much at stake on Friday. Both the champion and runner-up of the CFU Club Shield qualify for the Concacaf Caribbean Cup. A victory over Mount Pleasant would therefore give Suriname two representatives in the regional club tournament. National champions SV Broki have already qualified directly.<\/p>\n<p>In the other semi-final, Delfines del Este from the Dominican Republic will take on Metropolitan FA from Puerto Rico. Delfines eliminated Inter Willemstad on penalties, while Metropolitan beat Helenites SC 2-1.<\/p>\n<p>The CFU Club Shield final will be played on Sunday, 2 August. The winner will be placed in Group B of the Caribbean Cup. The losing finalist will be assigned to Group A, which also includes SV Broki.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SV Robinhood will play Mount Pleasant on Friday in the semi-final of the CFU Club Shield, with a place in the 2026 Concacaf Caribbean Cup at stake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":27641,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_29234516172805655_1309923202201307":"","facebook_29234516172805655_1158244960706604":"","facebook_29234516172805655_1093738170500407":"","facebook_29234516172805655_108923581283702":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[20286],"tags":[16291,20363,16292],"class_list":["post-184421","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sport","tag-key-news","tag-sports-news","tag-suriname"],"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"publish","pp_force_visibility":null,"pp_subpost_visibility":null,"pp_inherited_force_visibility":null,"pp_inherited_subpost_visibility":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184421","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=184421"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184421\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":184434,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184421\/revisions\/184434"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27641"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=184421"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=184421"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=184421"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
