El Tricolor, the Mexico women’s U-20 football team, recently opposed the Guyana Lady Jags in a contest to determine which team emerges winner of ‘Group D’ in the CONCACAF 2020 U-20 Women’s Championships and earn the three points at stake.
The Mexicans triumphed 3-nil against Guyana, but the scores belie the way the match was played. For the most part, it was a stalemate between the two sides, and the breakthrough did not come until the 78th minute, when Joseline Montoya scored the opener. Montoya struck again nine minutes later to hand Mexico a commanding 2-0 lead, and Mariel Roman Pacheco then capped off the win with a goal scored in the time of 90+3 minutes for El Tricolor.
In play in the Round of 16, Mexico will meet Grenada, Guyana will take on the Cayman Islands, and Puerto Rico will clash with Trinidad and Tobago. (Concacaf)
