Simon featured in the victory against the Black Stars after coming on in the second half.
Ahead of the weekend’s tie, Simon said he and his teammates are ready.
“This is my first time playing in a tournament like this in the UK,” the Nantes forward said in Friday’s pre-match press conference. “We are prepared we know what is at stake in Nigeria there’s nothing like friendly game.
“Jamaica have a good team and we all know it’s not going to be easy because they have good players, good coach.”
The Super Eagles beat Jamaica 2-0 when both teams met in the 2004 tournament.

For Christ sake Jamaica is not a footballing nation. I don’t know if we have match analyst in this team. But we tend to fear every Tom and dyck instead of doing our home work.
Jamaica is not a footballing nation, but the Jamaican diaspora is – like Nigeria, a footballing diaspora.
