Gilbert remain Reggae Girlz head coach

The Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) has announced that Xavier Gilbert will remain head coach of  the Reggae Girlz for two more Concacaf Gold Cup qualifying games.

The appointment means Gilbert will be the man in charge when Jamaica host Group B leaders Panama on November 29 and on December 3 when the team travels to Guatemala for their return game.

Jamaica lost 2-1 to Panama last Wednesday in the first leg of their home-and-away fixture before playing out a 2-2 draw with Guatemala on Sunday.

“The JFF commends Xavier and the Senior Reggae Girlz for the recent performances against Panama and Guatemala and is grateful for their response to the call to represent Jamaica and the JFF with such sterling performances,” the JFF said in a statement.

The JFF says it looks forward to the upcoming games and hope that more fans will turn out to support the team.
