Re: Jamaica's Road to the World Cup
United States
Vs.
Jamaica
Jamaica can't hold on, draws America 2-2
The Jamaican's struck in the opening minute against the United States, on a goal by striker Ralph(1-0), but weren't able to hold off the American's for long, as McBride launched a beauty into the upper right corner(1-1)of the net to tie it up in the 7th. Only two minutes later, US defender Berhalter hit a rebound off the crossbar into the back of the net(2-1). There was only one problem...he put it into his own net to give Jamaica the 2-1 lead. However, just like their friendly match with France, the Jamaican's blew the lead late, allowing Twellman a goal(2-2)in the 80th minute that tied the game at 2 apiece, a score that would hold until the final whistle.
