Head coach Kyle Lightbourne, who was there for the live draw in Los Angeles, California this evening, was brought on stage with the three other Group B coaches and said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for our country. We’re delighted to be in this competition. I think we’re going to embrace it and enjoy ourselves.”

Lightbourne said Bermuda making its debut at the Gold Cup was something the players worked hard for to achieve and was looking forward to the competition.

“We’re going to have our challenges along the way, but we will definitely come through it on the other end.”
