Steve McClaren’s Jamaica harbour World Cup dream amid storm devastation
Steve McClaren aims to bring hope to Jamaica as the Reggae Boyz strive for World Cup qualification for the first time since 1998. Following the devastation caused by Hurricane Melissa, which struck on October 28, resulting in 45 fatalities and displacing tens of thousands, McClaren's leadership offers a chance to uplift the nation. Prime Minister Andrew Holness reported that the storm caused damage equivalent to a third of Jamaica's GDP. Over the next six days, Jamaica will compete for a spot in the World Cup, providing an opportunity to unite and inspire the country during this challenging time.
