Jamaica and Guadeloupe are 1-1 at half-time in their Concacaf Gold Cup game at the Exploria Stadium in Orlando, Florida on Friday evening.

Guadeloupe took the lead inside four minutes courtesy of an Amari'i Bell own goal but the Reggae Boyz equalised in the 14th minute with a low drive from Cory Burke for his seventh career international goal. Leon Bailey thought he had taken the lead for Jamaica in the 24th minute but the goal was disallowed by VAR because of an offside call.

Jamaican goalkeeper Andre Blake had to produce an outstanding save from a long-range effort from Guadeloupe midfielder Kévin Malpon in the third minute of first-half stoppage time.
