I find it pretty sad that a very talented group of players from Venezuela have to endure the travails of the political and economic ruin but even then I am awaiting tonight’s marquee matchup between Mexico and Uruguay (who will not have Suarez available to play). Jamaica is the only Concacaf team I don’t actively support when they play outside the association. Never liked them for some reason and they always seem to play dirty.
So this tournament has no impact on World Cup qualification?

Fun fact — the Jamaica defense is led by Wes Morgan a man who has toiled for more than a decade in the Premiere League as well as in the lower leagues and he was crucial to the earth-shattering run that saw Leicester City shock the world with their PL title this year. Morgan was a rock in the middle with Robert Huth and there aren’t many better sporting moments than watching him lift the trophy with everyone’s favorite grandpa, Claudio Ranieri.
Champione champione champione ole ole ole they sang to Ranieri as he exited a downtown Leicestaer Italian eatery
