WITH the Golden Jaguars winding down preparations ahead of their all-important Third Round FIFA World Cup Qualifying Brazil 2014 and matches starting with Mexico at the Azteca Stadium tomorrow, International Bodybuilding king Hugh Ross is backing the Guyanese to qualify as one of the two teams from this group, which also has Costa Rica and El Salvador. Under the astute leadership of head coach Jamaal Shabazz, the Guyanese have completed their final camp in Colombia and will travel to Mexico to take on the Mexicans tomorrow before heading back to Guyana to entertain Costa Rica four days later.
Ross’ full statement is as follows:
“I would also like to take this opportunity to extend best wishes to members of a team from another sport discipline – The Golden Jaguars. They have my full support in their quest for World Cup glory. They are perfectly poised and have an excellent opportunity so I am asking not only all fellow athletes from other sport disciplines but our nation as a whole to rally around our team as they continue with their training and preparations for the World Cup.
