England-based Simon Dawkins and Joel Grant hit maiden goals to help Jamaica's Reggae Boyz to a pleasing 2-2 result with Egypt here at the Matchroom Stadium yesterday. The Boyz, who had earlier lost 1-2 and 0-1 to Serbia and Switzerland, respectively, on their glamour four-match friendly international tour, went behind very early on the cold and drizzly Wednesday evening. However, Dawkins and Grant struck before the break to put the Boyz ahead, only to succumb to unrelenting pressure by the North Africans late on. Head coach Winfried Schaefer was beaming at game's end, not only for the end result, but more for the eye-catching performance from the team for the first 50 minutes.
