Ricketts backs Boyz to get past tough Mexico

President of the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF), Michael Ricketts, says the Reggae Boyz must be brave and decisive in front of goal if they are to overcome Concacaf giants Mexico in their two-legged Nations League quarterfinal tie later this month.

Jamaica will host the first leg at the National Stadium on November 14 before travelling to Mexico City for the return encounter on November 17.

Ricketts said that the Mexicans will pose a difficult challenge given their wealth of talent and resources, but he noted that the Reggae Boyz have players capable of securing a positive result on home soil and taking an advantage into the return leg.
