CONCACAF Nations League Qualifying 2018/2019…
Guyana’s Senior National men’s football team, the Golden Jaguars, suffered an obstacle on their road to the Concacaf Gold Cup qualification on Tuesday evening as they suffered a crushing loss to French Guiana.
Playing in Cayene at the Stade Municipal Dr. Edmard Lama, Guyana’s 11 featured Kai Mckenzie-Lyle, Terence Vancooten, Walter Moore, Kevin Layne, Colin Nelson, Elliot Bonds, Neil Danns (Captain), Daniel Wilson, Sheldon Holder, Trayon Bobb and Kadell Daniel.
The Guyanese team looked very agile in the beginning of the game but soon had a damper in their high spirits when French Guiana’s Jules Haabo netted a goal in the 18th minute of play.
The South American sides went back and forth but saw to a quiet remainder of the half.
The momentum remained on French Guiana’s side and just moments into the second half, Haabo struck for his second of the night with a fine right-footed finish to take the tally to 2-0.
However, captain of the Golden Jaguars, Neil Danns was perfectly placed in the 59th, to sink a goal for Guyana. Despite having a handful of other chances, Guyana was unable to capitalize, having to settle for the 2-1 defeat.
This loss means that the Golden Jaguars remain on four points on the Concacaf Nations League qualifiers table and will have to register a win when they meet with Belieze on March 23 at the Leonira Stadium for their final qualifier match.
