SIX goals from Se-hanna Mars, two from Jalade Trim and one each from Heike Clarke and Glendy Lewis secured Guyana’s Under-20 Women’s National Team second victory on yesterday in the CONCACAF Under-20 Qualifiers in the Dominican Republic.

Displaying confidence from the start of the match, the young Lady Jags defeated Dominica 10 – 0 in the Felix Sanchez Stadium in Santo Domingo.

It was forward Trim who struck quickly after the starting whistle, scoring the first goal just five minutes into the game, followed by Mars’ thrilling five goals in the 14th, 16th, 19th, 31st and 37th minutes.

Defender Clarke made the seventh goal at the 48th minute mark.

While forward Mars scored her sixth goal in the 66th; Lewis at the 78th minute and Trim finishing the game scoring at the 92nd minute.

It was a sensational performance by Guyana’s Under-20 Women’s National Team. Their victory was due to their high energy level, quality of play and sound decision making on the pitch.

Guyana Football Federation President Wayne Forde congratulated the team and coaching staff on a solid win and noted that the players showed discipline throughout the game.

“I would like to join the rest of Guyana in congratulating our girls and the Coaching staff for yet another solid performance. The team remained disciplined throughout the game and worked really hard to amass as many goals as possible. We have made tremendous progress over the past seven years in female football development, and we will continue to invest heavily in more leagues and competitions at all levels.”

Last Saturday, the young Lady Jaguars defeated Suriname 6 – 0 in their opening match. Guyana is in Group C with host nation Dominican Republic, Suriname and Dominica.

The winner of each group will advance to the May 2023 Concacaf Women’s Under-20 Championship in the Dominican Republic, joining top-ranked teams United States and Mexico.
