The Digicel Caribbean Cup 2007 is the fourteenth edition of the biennial Caribbean Cup, the finals of which were contested in Trinidad and Tobago between 12 January and 23 January 2007. The four semifinalists (Cuba, Guadeloupe, Haiti, and hosts Trinidad and Tobago) qualified for the 2007 edition of the CONCACAF Gold Cup. In all, 24 of the eligible countries participated (5 did not enter and 1 withdrew). Haiti eventually won the tournament despite having to qualify for the finals through a play-off of third-place teams from the second round and finishing second in its final-round group. The Haitians beat eight-time champion and host Trinidad and Tobago in the final, although Trinidad was missing many of the European-based players that had helped the Soca Warriors qualify for the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Guadeloupe were the surprise of the tournament, as former French international Jocelyn Angloma came out of retirement to help the team advance to the semifinals, qualifying for its first Gold Cup in the process. Cuba continued its development into a regional power by finishing in third place. ==Prize money== * , as the winner, received US$120,000 (UK£64,022). * , as the runner up, received US$70,000 (UK £37,350). * , as the third-place team, received US$50,000 (UK £26,680). * , as the fourth-place team, received US$30,000 (UK £16,009). * Each of the ten host countries received a subsistence package of US$20,000 (UK £10,673).
