Aston Villa winger Leon Bailey was delighted to play a full 90 for Jamaica yesterday.

Bailey played for Jamaica in their World Cup qualifying clash with El Salvador in Kingston, which Paul Hall's side drew 1-1. Eriq Zavaleta's first-half strike was cancelled out by an effort from Andre Gray after half-time, leaving Jamaica in seventh place in World Cup qualifying with eight points from 12 games.

"I enjoyed the game today, I think the team enjoyed the game today and it was exciting for the fans," Bailey told Jamaican broadcaster Sportsmax.

"I thought we were brilliant in defence and attack but we didn't take the chances. I felt good, I haven't played 90 minutes in a long time.

"There's much more room for improvement but I feel sharp, comfortable and ready to go."

Jamaica play their final game of the current break overnight on March 31 with Villa playing Wolverhampton Wanderers on April 2 at 3pm.

"I'll speak to the coach and see but, obviously, as I said, I haven't played a full 90 minutes in a long time," he added.

"Having three games in such a short time, we'll have to see how many minutes I'll be able to play in the other two games or maybe I'll just play one game."
