The Lady Jaguars continued their unbeaten streak in the CONCACAF U20 Championship Qualifiers, dismantling Dominica 10-0 yesterday at the Felix Sanchez Olympic Stadium, Dominican Republic.
Guyana’s starting XI which remained unchanged from their opening 6-0 win over Suriname, comprised: Nya-Grace Young, Savannah Singh, Shamya Daniels, Sandra Johnson, Jalade Trim, Glendy Lewis, Anika Sproxton, Heike Clarke, Samantha Benfield, Jayda Schoburgh, and Se-Hanna Mars.
The rout commenced in the fifth minute, as Trim raced into the left side of the penalty box before finishing with the outside of the right boot into the lower right corner. It then became the Mars show, as the wily forward recorded five of her eventual six conversions to essentially end the contest in the first half.
Mars opened her account in the 14th minute, stabbing home unchallenged inside the six-yard box after latching onto a Trim left-sided pass.
Two minutes later Mars completed her brace, rifling a shot from inside the right of the box over the hands of the goalkeeper and into the back of the net.
The hat-trick was then sealed in the 20th minute, as Mars curled a right-footed strike from just inside the centre of the 18-yard area into the right corner.
Mars tallied her helmet trick in the 31st minute to push the score to 4-0, stabbing a loose ball inside the box into the back of the net following a left-side corner kick.
Her fifth and final goal of the first half occurred in the 37th minute, lashing home unchallenged after the goalkeeper split a cross from the left side.
Following the start of the second stanza, Clarke found the back of the net in the 48th minute, whilst Mars amassed her sixth conversion in the 66th minute. Lewis and Trim completed the rout with strikes in the 78th and 90th+2 minute respectively.
With the win, Guyana climb onto six points and will battle hosts Dominican Republic in their final group match tomorrow at the same venue from 18:00hrs.
