Dever Orgill celebrates his second goal against Honduras in the Concacaf Gold Cup at the National Stadium earlier tonight.

Jamaica's Reggae Boyz lead Honduras 2-0 at half time in their historic hosting of the Concacaf Gold Cup at the National Stadium in Kingston.

All the attention coming into the game may have been on Leon Bailey, making his debut tonight, however, Dever Orgill is the man of the moment, having scored both goals.

Orgill put the Jamaicans ahead in the 15th minute after Leon Bailey found Peter-Lee Vassell slipping into the box. After receiving the ball, Vassell attempted a shot on goal but Honduras goalkeeper Luis Lopez got a hand to it, and the loose ball was collected by Orgill, who, although standing in an offside position, was all alone to head into the empty net.

In the 41st minute, Orgill received a pass at the top of the box and weaved his way between the Honduras back line before seeing his shot deflect into the back of the net.
