Gray, Nicholson back for Reggae Boyz vs Panama
KINGSTON, Jamaica— Demarai Gray and Shamar Nicholson have been included in the Jamaica team to face Panama in the third place play-off of the Concacaf Nations League at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas today.
Gray and Nicholson were suspended for Thursday’s semi-final game against the USA that Jamaica lost.
Gray got a red card in the quarterfinal return leg against Canada in Toronto in November, while Nicholson had been shown yellow cards in both legs of the tie.
They replaced Renaldo Cephas and Jamal Lowe as head coach Hemier Hallgrimsson kept faith with the other members of the team that led the USA for more than 90 minutes before losing 3-1 in extra time at the same venue.
Starting team:
Andre Blake (capt), Damion Lowe, Di’Shon Bernard, Dexter Lembikisa, Greg Leigh, Joel Latibeaudiere, Michael Hector, Bobby DeCordova-Reid, Kasey Palmer, Demarai Gray and Shamar Nicholson
