Jamaica's Reggae Boyz Will Play France By June

Up-dates on Football- Jamaica's Reggae Boyz to play France in June as the build-up continues to the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil this summer.
The Caribbean outfit, who failed to qualify for football's biggest showpiece will take on the former World Cup winners on June 8 at the Stade Pierre Maury in Lille.
The clash will be the third and final warm-up fixture for Les Bleus who are due to play Norway and and Paraguay as well. At the World Cup, France will play in Group E and face Switzerland, Ecuador and Honduras.

Meanwhile, the Reggae Boyz, who failed to win a game and ended last in the CONCACAF World Cup final stage last year, will look to rebuild the national senior team and brand Reggae Boyz.
"This game will be extremely important in the federation's effort to rebuild the national senior team, and is part of my stated commitment to Jamaica's football programme," Captain Horace Burrell, president of the Jamaica Football Federation, stated via an e-mail release.
"The game happened after negotiations and France chose to play Jamaica. This match would enhance brand Reggae Boyz," Burrell told The Gleaner.
"One of the requirements is for us to field our strongest team, and we will do everything possible for that to happen," the JFF president disclosed.
Meanwhile, when quizzed as to who will be in charge of the Reggae Boyz, Burrell said: "I will not comment on the coaching at this time, that will be dealt with in the next few days." The contract of coach Winfried Schäfer ended last October and is yet to be renewed.
Jamaica made a historic first World Cup appearance at France 1998 but have failed to qualify for the finals since then.
