ENGLAND v JAMAICA PREVIEW World Cup 2006 home page _________________________________________________________________________
******** Please click here for a review of the match **********
Jamaica are not going to the World Cup 2006 as only game third behind the USA
and Panama in Group 1 of the North, Central American and Caribbean qualification
Zone They played Ghana on 29 May 2006 but lost 4-1 at Leicester City's
Walkers stadium - Ghana are in Group E at the
World Cup 2006. Ghana had the better of the first half and scored twice but
Jamaica improved after the break and scored from a free kick - Shane Crawford
took the free kick and Jason Euell put the ball in the net after 58 minutes. Ghana made the game
safe, however, with two more goals after 66 and 68 minutes.
Gary Neville still has a hamstring injury that he picked up against Hungary and will not be risked for this game. Eriksson said that Gary Neville should be fit to play again by Monday 5 June 2006. Jamie Carragher is therefore likely to start at right back for this game. The senior England players also told Eriksson that they prefer playing in a 4-4-2 formation and Eriksson suggested this will be the formation used against Jamaica. The England starting line up for the match is likely to be:
David Beckham Frank Lampard Steven Gerrard Joe Cole
Michael Owen
Peter Crouch
