00:00As for TNT, well it is simple. They do not win, they do not qualify and they have the

00:07weight of a nation behind them in the background. The mission was as clear as

00:11day and it took the home team a few minutes before knocking on the door.

00:14And on this occasion, Andre Blake kept the door shut for the reggae boys.

00:22But the air was snuffed out of the Hazley Crawford Stadium when Jamaica found the back of the net.

00:34But hats were revived when the referees flagged and VAR confirmed it was offside. The second half

00:43started how it ended, with TNT knocking at the door. But scoring goals has been TNT's Achilles

00:50heel and so too is the gifting of goals to the opponents.

00:53TNT absolutely dominated Jamaica, having more ball possession, shots, shots on target and

01:12big chances created. Yet, the reggae boys scored off their only shot on target all match.

01:19To their credit, TNT never gave up as Justin Garcia thought he had the equalizer here.

01:24But the elusive equalizer eventually came.

01:27Clipped into the box. Brought down Mitchell. Into the path.

01:31Molino! He has given TNT a lifeline. Kevin Molino, the last of the remaining legends, has given

01:46Dwight York. The ultimate legend. Not even VAR would prevent this one from sticking. But

01:58the sound of the whistle following a 1-1 draw. Terrence Clark, TV6 Sport.
