Did the local players fail Reggae Boyz audition?

For many it can be described as a poor display against Caribbean opposition in recent memory. For others, especially the administrators, it was ultimately an audition for the local players to stake a claim for future national team selection.

The eventual end result was an embarrassing 4-0 home defeat to the Reggae Boyz, Jamaica’s Senior Men’s Programme at the National Track and Field Centre, Leonora in League-B of the CONCACAF Nations League.

While Guyana would have suffered identical, similar and even worse results prior to the aforementioned loss, the dominating performance of the visitors have placed a spot-light on the local grid, after six locally born players comprised the starting XI in the ill-fated result.
