Everton’s Demarai Gray made an instant impact in his Jamaica men’s national team debut at the weekend against the United States and the 27-year-old followed that up with a Man of the Match performance on his birthday last night.
Gray registered his first international brace in the Reggae Boyz’s 4-1 Concacaf Gold Cup victory over Trinidad & Tobago in St Louis, Missouri. The Blues attacker, who recently made the 'exciting' decision to switch his international allegiance from England to Jamaica, celebrated his birthday in style.
He said: “It was a really important three points for us. We dropped a few points in the last match against the United States after being in front for most of the match, but tonight was important and to score four goals tonight, this group might come down to goal difference.
