Almost an opening try at the other end. Louis Senior looks to be going into the corner but his right foot just sneaks into touch.

No. The video referee has his say. No try.

Oh hello. Kieran Rush sends a lovely little grubber kick into the left corner and Jacob Ogden wheels away with a look of delight on his face after getting his hand on the ball.

Did he ground that in play?

That's one for the Jamaica defence. Greg Johnson send Innes Senior into touch.

The Caribbean nation have been under the pump early doors and that's some welcome respite.

Ireland have numbers out wide but Joe Keyes is wrapped up nicely by a couple of Jamaica players on half way.

Jamaica have started a couple of sets almost on their own line. The Ireland defence is up off the line sharply and causing big problems.

This is only Jamaica's 25th international ever and their first in a World Cup.

First Irish set and Richie Myler almost puts Innes Senior in at the corner. Great defence from Mo Agoro.

This Ireland side haven't played a game for nearly three years. It's important that they start well. We saw Samoa yesterday were very rusty.

On paper this Ireland side look stronger.

Jamaica receive the ball from kick-off and Ireland are quickly up to apply the pressure.

The players are ready, the anthems have been sung. We are moments away from getting under way.

Ireland’s last international action came in 2019, so it may take them a while to get going but they will fancy their chances in this one.

A win here would go a long way to ensuring they reach the quarter-finals for the first time since 2008.

Jamaica secured their place at the tournament by beating the USA 16-10 in 2018 and they also drew 30-30 with Scotland earlier this year before losing 28-12 to Cumbria in their warm-up game.

Jamaica are captained by Huddersfield Giants’ versatile Ashton Golding and Romeo Monteith is coaching the team.

Golding is joined by clubmates Michael Lawrence – the first man born in the 1990s to play in Super League – and Kieran Rush with the rest of the squad being made up of Championship and League One players and six from Jamaica’s domestic champions, Duhaney Park Red Sharks.

Jamaica of course were hoping to have both Young brothers in their ranks but it's just Alex playing for the Reggae Warriors, with NRL star Dominic, here to support his sibling after starring for England against Samoa on Saturday.

Before we kick-off....BBC Sport's Liam Loftus has been learning how to train like a professional rugby league player with two of Jamaica's World Cup 'Reggae Warriors' - Michael Lawrence and Ben Jones-Bishop.

Rather him than me. Can't say I'd fancy being tackled by one of those lads.

Right here come the teams. Be fair to say that Leeds’ Caribbean community have come out for this one judging by the Jamaica flags dotted around the stadium.

The inclusion of household names Luke Keary and Richie Myler saw Ireland's 24-man squad announcement at the end of September turn heads, with over half the squad in line to make their Irish debut.

Keary and Myler, who were previously capped by Australia and England respectively, are among a sizeable portion of the squad who qualify for Ireland through family links.

Sydney Roosters half-back Keary qualifies for Ireland through his father, while Myler has switched international allegiance, having won eight caps for England.

In terms of NRL experience, Ireland also have the likes of Josh Cook, James Hasson, Jaimin Jolliffe and Henry O'Kane, while there is also a sizable Super League contingent of players in their squad.

Former Leeds Rhinos back Ashton Golding is back in town to captain Jamaica in their first ever World Cup campaign.

Meanwhile, Ireland have nine debutants, including big names Richie Myler and Luke Keary.

Ireland head coach Ged Corcoran says his side are determined to use their Rugby League World Cup campaign to attract new fans to the game at home.

The Wolfhounds' campaign begins on Sunday against Jamaica at Headingley, where they hope to set out their stall in pursuit of a top-two finish in Pool C.

League does not enjoy mainstream status in Ireland, but with several big names in their squad it is hoped that the World Cup can prove to be a watershed moment for the sport's popularity.

"The ultimate goal is to help build and breed the game in Ireland, and make a bigger status and noise," said Offaly-born head coach Corcoran, who won 11 international caps as a player.

"Being a homegrown man myself, I'm very patriotic about my country and speaking to some to the values to some of the boys we've got, it really stuck out within certain individuals.

"We have had some players in the past who I don't think the valued the culture. They do what they do for their own gains or whether it be for upgraded contracts.

"I just want good people within the environment of Ireland Rugby League, that I set that standard and that tone for the kids we've got coming through."
