Three teams will have an opportunity at a first-place finish in Group E following the results of matchday four of the 2020 Concacaf Women’s Under-20 Championship at the Estadio Panamericano in San Cristobal.
The day started with Jamaica taking on El Salvador and the Reggae Girlz rode a quick start to the full three points in a 4-1 win.
Jody Brown was quick out of the gates with goals in the 2’ and 11’ to hand Jamaica a 2-0 lead.
El Salvador fought back to make it a one-goal affair right before halftime thanks to a score from Mara Rodriguez.
But Jamaica’s class would come to the fore in the second half, as goals from Lacey Murray in the 58’ and Chantelle Parker in the 82’ paced Jamaica to the victory.
The group’s other game saw Guatemala and Canada battle to a 0-0 draw.
Las Chapines put forth an impressive defensive display in limiting the dangerous Canadian attack, thanks also in part to the heroics of GK Ashley Avalos.
The day’s results leave both Jamaica and Canada on four points, while Guatemala have two points and El Salvador have zero.
Action resume in Group E on Wednesday with Guatemala taking on El Salvador, while Canada square off against Jamaica.
