Coach Bora Milutinovic.

Coach Bora Milutinovic and the Jamaican national football team arrived in Hanoi Friday two days before a friendly match against the hosts.

The match is part of a Southeast Asian tour for the Caribbean team in its campaign to qualify for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Vietnam is also looking forward to the encounter to fine-tune its game before the Asian Cup kicks in July.

Jamaica came from Indonesia where it beat the national team 2-1.

Milutinovic is a celebrity in football-crazy Vietnam for leading five national teams – Mexico, Costa Rica, the US, Nigeria, and China – to the World Cup finals.

Vietnam will play another friendly against Bahrain on June 30.
