Jamaica manager Winfried Schafer has said that he is "very proud" of his players, despite their group stage exit from the Copa America.
The Reggae Boyz were dumped out of the tournament following a 1-0 defeat to Argentina on Saturday evening.
It was their third loss in the group stage, following earlier defeats to Uruguay and Paraguay, but Schafer believes that his team can be satisfied with how they performed against their illustrious opponents.
"I am very proud of my team," he told reporters. "In the first half we were too friendly with Argentina, but after the break we attacked them a bit more and had some chances in front of goal.
"We had some opportunities from free kicks and corners, nothing concrete but it is all important to note.
"At half time, we talked and the players had been nervous at first because they were facing Lionel Messi, Angel di Maria and all these players. But later they realised they could play, they could have some attacks and play without that fear."
Jamaica will return to action at the CONCACAF Gold Cup in Canada next month.
