Jaime Penedo was the hero for Panama as it beat Trinidad and Tobago 6-5 on penalties in the CONCACAF Gold Cup quarterfinals following a 1-1 draw at the end of extra time.

Penedo saved Lester Peltier's spot kick in the ninth round of penalties Sunday at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey to book the 2013 finalists' place in the semifinals.

Some dreadful defending from Trinidad handed Panama the lead in the 36th minute as Luis Tejada found the net from close range.
