At the debut of Group F matches, the same Brazil, Jamaica AND France facing each other. The French were the favourites. After the crisis faced at the beginning of the year, the arrival of a new coach, Hervé Renard, has rekindled the team’s favoritism. But what no one expected is that another manager’s work would draw attention to the match. Lorne Donaldson arrived in Jamaica last year and has been elevating the reggae girlz scene ever since.
France started by imposing the game, but Jamaica were not intimidated. With a team organized and determined not to concede, the Jamaicans managed to keep the score and finished the match 0-0. Another event of the match was the sending off of the main Caribbean player, Khadija Shaw, after a violent foul.
It is worth mentioning that the result of the match leaves the Brazilian team in a good position, as France are Brazil’s main contender for the lead in Group F.
