FT. LAUDERDALE – Jamaica will play seven-time World Cup finalists Switzerland in a friendly international at the Lockhart Stadium in Ft. Lauderdale on Thursday, March 22 at 7:15pm.
Four days later they will play Panama at the National Stadium beginning at 8pm.
Switzerland, presently ranked 14th in the world, will jointly host next year’s European Nations Cup final with Austria, while Panama, which
has not lost a match in their last three games, are preparing for the Concacaf Gold Cup in the USA.
Most of the local players who won the Hong Kong Lunar New Year Cup will be playing both friendlies.
National Technical Director Bora Milutinovich says he is looking forward to giving those players more exposure. Mitchily Waul, John Ross, Demar Howard and Errol Stephens all get a call up to the national squad for the first time.
The Seba United midfielder Keniel Moodie returns from injury to the squad which will train at Brancourt in Clarendon on Tuesday at 9:00am and 4:00pm.
