BARNSLEY midfielder Jon Russell started for Jamaica in their Unity Cup semi-final win on Tuesday evening.
The Reggae Boyz won 3-2 against Caribbean neighbours Trinidad and Tobago at Brentford’s ground on Tuesday, losing a 2-0 lead but then scoring a last-gasp penalty.
Russell was praised for his performance for Steve McClaren’s side who are now due to play either Nigeria or Ghana in the final on Saturday.
Jamaica’s team also included Dexter Lembikisa who was on loan to Barnsley from Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier this year, plus former Oakwell academy graduate Mason Holgate.
