Guyana’s attempt to secure its maiden qualification to the CONCACAF Gold Cup suffered a huge setback when they went down to hosts French Guiana 2-1 yesterday in the Nations League at the Dr. Edmard Lama Municipal Stadium, Cayenne.
A double from Jules Haabo was enough for the ‘French Department’ to walk-away with the vital three points and secure their first ever victory against the Golden Jaguars.
Haabo opened the scoring in the 18th minute, following a sustained period of offensive pressure. A brilliant right-footed finish from Haabo, one minute into the second period, strengthened the home side’s grip on the contest.
