B&B (Trailer): Jan-Michael Williams: When I disrespected Rene Simoes; and the lesson he taught me

HFX Wanderers goalkeeper coach and former Trinidad and Tobago international stand-out and three-time Gold Cup custodian Jan-Michael Williams remembers how heartbreak at the 2001 Fifa Under-17 World Cup and a fall-out with renowned Brazilian coach Rene Simoes shaped his early career.

Look out for Williams’ full interview on the Burdie and Barney Show from 7 October as we discuss his development with ‘Team 2001’, the impact of horrific racist abuse in Hungary, and how he prepared himself mentally to become a high level international footballer.
