Jamaica’s Reggae Girlz wrapped up their two-match friendly series against Peru with a hard-fought 3-2 victory at Estadio Miguel Grau on Wednesday.

Though the Jamaicans, who won Sunday’s opening contest 2-0, were again largely in control, they faced their share of anxious moments, including surviving a penalty scare, but ultimately proved too strong for their South American counterparts.

Naya Cardoza (sixth), Reanna Blades (19th), and Tiffany Cameron (23rd) got Jamaica’s goals, while Birka Ruiz (35th) and substitute Alondra Vilchez (54th) got Peru’s goals.

The result marks the Reggae Girlz's fourth consecutive victory, following their dominant performances against South Africa late last year.

Jamaica wasted little time asserting themselves in the contest as they broke the deadlock just six minutes in when Naya Cardoza expertly headed home Siobhan Wilson’s well-weighted corner kick for her first international goal.

The early lead could have been erased seven minutes later when Peru’s Pierina Núñez unleashed a powerful right-footed effort from just outside the box. However, goalkeeper Liya Brooks produced a stunning save, tipping the shot onto the crossbar. A chaotic goalmouth scramble ensued, but Brooks and her defenders held firm.

In the 19th minute, Reanna Blades doubled Jamaica’s lead, as she too registered her maiden international goal. Blades latched onto a pass from Kayla McKenna, bypassed a defender, and unleashed a left-footed shot that deflected wickedly past the helpless Savannah Madden in goal.

Just four minutes later, Tiffany Cameron made it 3-0. Wilson’s powerful free kick from about 25 yards struck the crossbar, and as the Peruvian defence failed to clear the rebound, Jazmine Ferguson played the ball back into the danger area for Cameron, who sidestepped Madden and fired home for her eighth international goal.

Peru’s first real breakthrough came in the 35th minute when Ruiz dribbled past Wilson and rifled a shot past Brooks, who was left rooted to the spot.

The South Americans had a golden chance to cut the deficit even further just before halftime when Ferguson was penalized for handling the ball inside the area. However, Brooks came up big again, diving to her left to deny Geraldine Cisneros from the penalty spot, as Jamaica remained 3-1 up at break.

Jamaica sought to put the game to bed early in the second half, and in the 49th minute, substitute Shaneil Buckley fired a left-footed effort that was brilliantly kept out by Madden.

Peru, however, refused to go quietly, and in the 54th minute, substitute Vilchez found the back of the net with a well-placed right-footed shot that beat Brooks at full stretch.

As the game wore on, Peru pressed for an equalizer, but Jamaica remained resolute in defence. In fact, Jamaica had the only other clear-cut chance for the remainder of the contest. It came in the 84th minute when substitute Kameron Simmonds released a stinging right-footed drive, which was well parried by Madden, who took flight to her right.

Despite some late pressure from the hosts, the Reggae Girlz held firm to cap off a successful series in style. With this win, Jamaica extends their impressive run of form, setting a positive tone for their upcoming fixtures against Mexico in April.
