Two Lincoln City players are in action during the latest round of international fixtures.
Ivan Varfolomeev and Dexter Lembikisa have joined up with their respective nations ahead of another crucial set of matches, with qualification for some of international football’s biggest tournaments within touching distance.
Ivan Varfolomeev
Ivan Varfolomeev linked up with Ukraine U21s for a crucial 2027 European U21 Championships qualifier in Turkey.
Varfolomeev played 84 minutes as Ukraine were edged out 1-0 against the group leaders on Friday.
Attentions now turn to a friendly fixture against Albania on Monday 17 November (5pm KO).
Dexter Lembikisa
Dexter Lembikisa and Jamaica are tantalisingly close to FIFA World Cup qualification for the first time since 1998.
The task is fairly simple for Reggae Boyz, win their last qualifying match and they will be jetting off to the tournament in North America in the summer.
Following their draw against Trinidad and Tobago in their last outing, Jamaica need to beat current group leaders Curacao, who they meet at 1am on Wednesday 19 November to secure their place at the World Cup for the first time in 28 years.
