Coventry City forward Ephron Mason-Clark made his international debut for Jamaica as they moved within one game of qualifying for this year's World Cup.

The 26-year-old started the 1-0 win over New Caledonia in Guadalajara.

Jamaica won the game with an 18th-minute goal from Wrexham forward Bailey Cadamarteri after they had finished second in their qualifying group to Curacao to miss out on automatic qualification

Mason-Clark's Coventry team-mate Joel Latibeaudiere also started the game, with the Reggae Boyz needing to beat DR Congo in next Tuesday's play-off final at the same Akron Stadium to qualify for the finals in the USA, Canada and Mexico.
