Jamaica Set Up Unity Cup Final Clash With Super Eagles After Beating India
The Reggae Boyz of Jamaica have booked a place in the final of the 2026 Unity Cup after defeating India 2-0 in Wednesday’s second semi-final encounter in London, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
Goals from Clarke Courtney and Kaheim Dixon secured victory for the Caribbean side, who will now face Nigeria’s Super Eagles in Saturday’s final.
Courtney opened the scoring early in the eighth minute before Dixon sealed the victory late in the second half to send Jamaica into the title decider.
The Super Eagles had earlier secured their place in the final following a 2-0 win over Zimbabwe, with debutant Femi Azeez scoring both goals for Éric Chelle’s side.
Saturday’s final will be a repeat of the 2025 Unity Cup showpiece, where Nigeria defeated Jamaica 5-4 on penalties after regulation time ended 2-2.
While the Super Eagles will be chasing a fourth Unity Cup title, Jamaica will be aiming to win the competition for the first time.
India and Zimbabwe will now face each other in the third-place playoff, which is also scheduled for Saturday in London.
