Known as the Reggae boyz, the Jamaican football team qualified for it's first World Cup Finals in France 98. With a mixture of British stars such as Robbie Earle, Marcus Gayle, Deon Burton and Fitzroy Simpson as well as home grown star Walter Boyd they set off on a soccer party which captured Jamaica's imagination.

Their glorious campaign started with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Croatia, who would end up in third place overall in the tournament, a 5-0 loss to the much fancied Argentina. Eventually winning 2-1 in their last game against Japan.

Win Lose or draw�, the results were not important to the team or their supporters, just getting there was enough.
