The Bermuda Men’s National team have settled St. Croix USVI, after a brief stay in Miami, for their International Exhibition match against DC United.
www.islandstats.com queried the Bermuda Football Association with the fact that not all the players reported for International Duty.
Bermuda Football Association President responded, “Unfortunately, Jaquill Hill did not join the team stating that he was now unavailable for personal reasons. The timing of the withdrawal was not ideal as it left little time to replace him. Despite the withdrawal from the team, Coach Lightbourne is more than confident that the squad assembled is capable of getting the result required against Mexico.
Nahki Wells will meet the team in Texas for pre-match preparation before the delegation travels on to Toluca, Mexico.
The match against DC United on November 15th at the Bethlehem Soccer Complex on the Island of St. Croix awaits the Bermuda team tomorrow. They are excited with the prospect of playing against one of the MLS top teams.
On November 18th the Bermuda team will travel to Toluca, Mexico to take on favorites Mexico on November 19th in the Estadio Nemesio Diez at 10:30 p.m. (Bermuda time).”
