The Junior Jaguars got their CONCACAF U-15 Boys Championship campaign to a shaky start on Monday when they drew their first Group F game at the IMG Academy, Florida, USA, against St Kitts 1-1.
In a match that was dictated by goals in the first half, Guyanese forward Ronaldo Rodrigues struck with the event just two minutes old to hand his side the early lead.

Thereafter, it was a midfield battle between the two sides as they shared possession with both having chances which they failed to convert.
Shawn Hamilton in the 33rd minute would equalize for St Kitts for what was the final goal of the see-saw encounter.
The second half produced more of the same and when the final whistle was blown, the two sides walked away with a point each.
Guyana’s next game will be played against South American neighbours Suriname today at 09:00hrs.
