Guyana’s Under-20 footballers suffered their second loss in as many matches when play in the Caribbean Football Union Under-20 World Cup Qualifying competition continued on Thursday evening at Victoria Park, Kingstown, St. Vincent & the Grenadines.
Already losing their opening game to Trinidad and Tobago 1-2, the young Guyanese did not get it right again and went down to the home team in a game that saw the goal keeper blunders costing the team.
Based on reports from St. Vincent, the first two goals by D. John 32nd minute and N. Hoyte in the 43rd were both long range shots from outside the box. Guyana were able to reduce the deficit in the 69th minute through a goal from Beneakaman Smartt.
But the two goal cushion was restored by the home team with 7 minutes to full time when substitute goalie Romario James was caught advancing off his line and quick thinking from J. Toppin saw the young Vincy Heat player sealing the game for his team.
In the other game played, Suriname upset the young Soca Warriors 3-0, D. Apai scored the brace (49, 77), while S. Eduard opened the scoring in the 33rd minute.
Guyana will play their final game of the group today against Suriname from 17:30hrs with the feature clash between T&T and St. Vincent.
