IT may not be FIFA World Cup qualification but the Reggae Boyz have an opportunity to give their supporters something to celebrate when they battle defending champions Nigeria in Saturday’s Unity Cup final at The Valley in London, starting at 1:30 pm.

The national senor men’s team will play in their second-straight final after beating India 2-0 on Wednesday, thanks to forward Kaheim Dixon and debutant England-born midfielder Courtney Clarke. Jamaica also lost to Nigeria in the inaugural Unity Cup final in 2002.

It’s a repeat of the 2025 final at Brentford Community Stadium where Jamaica came from behind twice to draw 2-2 in regulation time but the Nigerians won the contest 5-4 on penalties.
