Jamaica Boyz vs. Dominica Sunday, June 9


Share


The Reggae Boyz are set to tackle fellow Caribbean opponents Dominica on Sunday, June 9 at Windsor Park, Roseau in Dominica with kick-off time set for 2:00 PM. This match will be Jamaica’s second match of the new World Cup Qualifying campaign.

Jamaica’s opening match of the campaign was against Dominican Republic which ended 1-0. Reggae Boyz’s only goal of the WCQ so far was scored by Shamar Nicholson. On the other hand, “Cephas was an absolute beast,” in the match hence many Jamaicans are looking forward to seeing his explosive pace again.

Despite being happy with the three points from the previous match, head coach Heimir Hallgrímsson stated that he did not like the style of play and the ball was not being moved forward quickly enough, with that said it’s expected that a few changes will be made for Sunday.

On the other hand, Dominica lost 6-0 to Guatemala.

Jamaica Predicted Starting 11 vs. Dominica

The 26-man squad, as per JFF’s post online includes: goalkeepers Shaquan Davis, Jayden Hibbert, Coniah Boyce-Clarke, and Jahmali Waite, along with defenders Dexter Lembikisa, Di’Shon Bernard, Greg Leigh, Damion Lowe, Michael Hector, Richard King, Tayvon Gray, and Jon Bell.

Shamar Nicholson, Renaldo Cephas, Michail Antonio, Deshane Beckford, Kaheim Dixon, and Devonte Campbell were announced as forwards. Among the list of excluded injured players is Chelsea U-21 forward Dujuan Richards, who is unavailable due to an unspecified injury.

With the fact that Daniel Johnson did not have a good first half and was taken off at the start of the second half, we expect him to be on the bench on Sunday.
