GROUP F of the 2022 CONCACAF Women’s Under-20 Championship in the Dominican Republic continued on Monday at the Estadio Olimpico Felix Sanchez in Santo Domingo, with Mexico punching their ticket to the next round.

Mexico topped Guyana 5-0 to earn El Tricolor a berth in the knockout round.

Paola Chavero opened the scoring in the 10th minute and was quickly joined on the scoresheet by Maritza Maldonado in the 28th and Tatiana Flores in the 37th
Maldonado then bagged her brace scoring in the 56th before Aylin Avilez capped things in the 78th to complete the 5-0 scoreline.

The Lady Jags final group game is against Panama today from 19:00hrs.
The top three teams from each of the four groups will progress to Round of 16, alongside four additional qualifiers.

Alongside the top 16 ranked sides in the region, Guyana qualified automatically for this year’s tournament as it is regarded by CONCACAF as the 10th strongest nation in this age and gender group in the Caribbean, and Central and North America.

Guyana are making their second consecutive appearance at the regional championship, having reached the quarter-finals in their first outing at this level in 2020 – just two games shy of qualifying for the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup.
