The tension between the Jamaica and the Juniors FC players grew even worse after the yellow card.

This resulted in a 1-1 score and a disappointed Demonde Jacobson as he didn't even see the shot coming. 24 minutes into the match, Jamaica's goal looked a bit too open when Humberto Lange came free, but Demonde Jacobson reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
