Guyana’s national under-14 girls’ team romped to their second win of the Caribbean Football Union (CFU) Girls’ Challenge Series, this time defeating Turks and Caicos.

At the Larry Gomes Stadium in Trinidad and Tobago, Head Coach Nichola Argyle opted for a starting XI of Captain Sabana Simon, goalkeeper Shantelle Jobe, Andrea Adrian, Thais Charles, Leandra Henrito, Teairra Martin, Kira Chor, Leah Rodrigues, Lehiana Benjamin, Shemia Hing, and Breanna Henry.
The contest started relatively quiet, with both sides creating chances that unfortunately went a-begging. However, the Junior Lady Jags eventually broke the ice in the 24th minute, through a Kira Chor strike. Chor capitalised on a set piece, coming in from the corner and instantly redirecting the ball into the corner of the net.
The second strike came not too long after, in the 33rd minute , as Benjamin extended her goal tally to two in as many games in the competition.
Benjamin had the benefit of a breakaway run after a pristine pass from Chor, going on to beat the last defender and subsequently the keeper, chipping the ball into the net for the goal.
The first half ended 2-0 in Guyana’s favour and the second saw no goal action, resulting in the victory for Guyana.
The Junior Lady Jags’ next assignment will come today, Monday, August 18, taking on Anguilla at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
