Caribbean Football Union Rankings

ST JOHN’S, Antigua, CMC – Jamaica’s Reggae Boyz have regained top spot in the Caribbean Football Union rankings, taking over from French Caribbean neighbours Haiti in the latest release on Thursday.

The Jamaicans climbed five spots to 54th in the overall FIFA rankings, while Haiti fell one place to 57th

Jamaica, however, played no international games over the last month, with their last fixture being a 2-0 defeat to Canada at the BMO Field in Toronto last September. Haiti, meanwhile, came away with a win in their last international friendly, pulling off a 1-0 victory over United Arab Emirates at the Sheikh Khalifa International Stadium in Al Ain two weeks ago.

Jamaica and Haiti are two of four CFU countries inside the FIFA top 100, with Curacao ranked 84th and Trinidad and Tobago, 89th.

Curacao jumped five places overall to overtake T&T and assume third place in the CFU, on the heels of their 2-1 win over Qatar at the Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium in Doha earlier this month.
