BAD RADKERSBURG, Austria - Kenwane Jones also scored, giving the Soca Warriors a 3-1 lead in the 82nd minute before a crowd of 900 at Thermen Arena.

The match was the first for the Caribbean side since arriving in Europe. T&T has exhibition games against Wales, Slovenia and the Czech Republic before facing Sweden in its World Cup opener on June 10.

John scored in the 25th minute after defender Dennis Lawrence redirected Chris Birchall's corner kick into his path, and Scotland connected two minutes later on a left-footed shot off the far post.

Andreas Walzer capitalized on a mistake by Dwight Yorke to pull FK Austria Vienna within a goal in the 78th. Rubin Okotie converted a penalty in the 90th minute after being fouled by David Atiba Charles.
