Jamaica held the United States to a 1-1 draw in their World Cup qualifier in Kingston tonight (November 16), putting the young US squad’s place at the top of the CONCACAF standings in jeopardy.

US forward Timonthy Weah – the son of Liberian President and former FIFA World Player of the Year George Weah and his Jamaican wife, Clar – drew first blood in the 11th minute, but West Ham United striker Michail Antonio levelled in the 22nd minute with a stunning shot from range.

Defender Damion Lowe briefly appeared to have given Jamaica the lead with a header from a corner in the 84th minute, but his effort was disallowed for a foul.

The US were expected to dominate after winning their last four matches against Jamaica and following an emotional 2-0 win over Mexico last week, with attacking midfielder Christian Pulisic returning to the fold.

But a young US squad seemed to have lost their momentum on Tuesday and now have a one-point advantage at the top of the CONCACAF standings with Mexico and Canada, who occupy the second and third spots, respectively, set to play each other later on Tuesday.

Jamaica is now fifth in the standings.

With an average age of 22 years and 341 days, US Soccer said it was the second-youngest men’s starting 11 it had featured in a World Cup qualifier.
