…As Khan looks ahead to next window

in action last week
Guyana’s senior women’s national football team the Lady Jaguars have, over the past week, suffered mixed fortunes in their opening games of the CONCACAF Road to W Gold Cup tournament.
While they suffered a narrow 2-1 loss to Antigua last Wednesday, the Lady Jags rebounded with a commanding 5-0 win over Dominica on Sunday last.
New to the Lady Jags set-up, Head Coach Omar Khan shared thoughts on his first win with the team, and a few hiccups he noticed along the way.
“Winning always feels good. Our feeling was that the first match preparation was a little bit too tight to prepare the team, so we got surprised by Antigua a little bit. I think we made a good comeback, learning from that game. I think we did well, especially in the first half,” Khan shared.
About the Lady Jags’ second half performance, in which they scored a solitary goal, Khan said, “It’s always difficult, because you see it on every level that, after a good first half, the opponent also does something. They go more defensively to maintain the goals from the first half. But my opinion is that Dominica played a good and better second half than the first half.”
While the win was a welcome one, it was evident that the Lady Jags could have been more solid as a unit had they not missed some experienced players. On this topic, Khan voiced expectations of seeing those players come into the squad possibly in the next window.
