The duo was scheduled to fly out on Tuesday night but were unable to board the flight after discovering their passports were missing. The players were devastated after the discovery, who have both been key figures for the Reggae Boyz in recent months.

The Reggae Boyz will now be without two of their most experienced players for the crucial match against the USMNT which will be a major blow to their chances of reaching the semi-finals.
