Head coach Naquita Robinson has opted for a four-four-two formation as Bermuda get their Fifa Women’s World Cup qualification campaign started against Jamaica’s Reggae Girlz tonight.

Micah Pond starts in goal while Koa Goodchild, Victoria Davis, Jenna Rempel, and Danni Watson assume defensive duties.

K’shaela Burch Waldron is joined in midfield by Leilanni Nesbeth, captain Eva Frazzoni, and Jaden Masters.

Nia Christopher and Aaliyah Nolan are Bermuda’s forwards.

The game, which starts at 8pm (Bermuda time), is being played at Independence Park in Kingston, Jamaica.

The last time the teams met here was in the previous qualifying campaign in August 2018, where the Reggae Girlz won 4-0 en route to advancing to the 2019 World Cup Finals in France.
