Mount Pleasant midfielder Jashuan Anglin has been called up to Jamaica’s squad for the upcoming Concacaf Nations League contest against Honduras on Monday.
Anglin, who made his Reggae Boyz debut against Bermuda in 2020, comes in as replacement for defender Damion Lowe who misses the game with an accumulation of cards, having picked up a yellow card in Jamaica’s 2-0 win over Nicaragua in Managua on Thursday.
The Reggae Boyz thanks to the result over Nicaragua on match day three, lead the table in Group B with seven points, one more than La H, who held onto a 3-2 win over French Guiana in their previous encounter.
Their previous six meetings versus the Hondurans have ended in a victory for the Reggae Boyz, while they are undefeated in seven consecutive competitive fixtures against them.
A point will be enough to see the Reggae Boyz advance, however, a victory would give them 10 points, which would equal their most ever in the group phase of League A.
The Hondurans have suffered just one defeat in their last eight encounters against Caribbean opponents across all competitions (2-1 versus Jamaica) but have only claimed one victory against the Reggae Boys on Jamaican soil, winning 2-0 in December 1968.
Monday’s game is scheduled for an 8pm start at the National Stadium in Kingston.
The full Jamaica squad reads: Andre Blake, Shaquan Davis, Jahmali Waite, Dexter Lembikisa, Di’shon Bernard, Greg Leigh, Damion Lowe, Jon Bell, Richard King, Tayvon Ggray, Ethan Pinnock, Mason Holgate, Kasey Palmer, Karoy Anderson, Bobby Reid, Joel Latibeaudiere, Tyreek Magee, Renaldo Cephas, Norman Campbell, Michail Antonio, Demarai Gray, Kaheim Dixon, Romario Williams and Jahshaun Anglin.
