Jamaica have drawn 0-0 with Canada in their FIFA World Cup qualifying game at the National Stadium on Sunday evening.

Despite Jamaica picking up their second point of the campaign, they are still at the bottom of the eight-team table with two points from five games.

Jamaica's best chance came at the tail-end of the second half as Kemar Lawrence's shot from outside the box was saved by Canadian goalkeeper Maxime Crépeau.

Jamaica had nine shots with one on target while Canada had 10 shots with only two on target.

The Reggae Boyz will play hosts Honduras in San Pedro Sula on Wednesday.
