But the Reggae Girlz equalised in the 58th minute thanks to Vyan Sampson and then Drew Spence added a second goal to give Jamaica a 63rd minute lead, captain Shaw setting her up for a fine headed effort.

It was 3-1 in the 76th minute thanks to Kayla McKenna after a defensive error and, despite Amogelang Motau pulling one back, Jamaica held on to emerge victorious 6-2 over the two-match series.

On Saturday, in the first of the two games between the nations, Shaw’s second half brace helped Jamaica beat South Africa 3-0.

That friendly also took place in Montego Bay with Shaw and her team-mates returning to winning ways after a run of difficult defeats to France, Brazil and Chile.
