CONCACAF World Cup
Qualifying for Qatar 2022
continued on Tuesday with
Jamaica and the United
States fighting to a 1-1 draw
at the National Stadium in
Kingston, the Jamaican capital.
DRAW
The draw snapped the
North Americans’ fourmatch
winning streak against
Jamaica in World Cup qualification
since a 2-1 Jamaica
win on Sept. 7, 2012, CONCACAF
said.
“The teams traded beautiful
individual goals in the
first half to account for all of
the scoring,” it said.
FIRST GOAL
CONCACAF said the US
took a 1-0 lead in the 11th
minute when winger Timothy
Weah played the ball to
Ricardo Pepi near the top of
the box, “and then got the
ball back, taking a pair of
touches and finishing from
a difficult angle for the first
goal of the match.”
In the 22nd minute, however,
Jamaica was level
1-1, “as Michail Antonio
squirmed away from US MF
Tyler Adams and lashed a
shot from well outside the
18-yard area that went blazing
past US GK Zack Steffen
and into net,” CONCACAF
said.
“The gorgeous goal was the
second consecutive match in
which Antonio has scored,”
it said.
The draw ran Jamaica’s
undefeated streak in the final
round of World Cup qualification
to four matches, while
the US has avoided defeat
in its last three, CONCACAF
said.
It said the players won’t
play in qualification again
until Jan. 27, when the United
States hosts El Salvador,
and Jamaica welcomes Mexico.
