Trinidad and Tobagos Under 20 women footballers may have lost their opening two matches to hosts Mexico and USA but they left the tournament on a winning note with a convincing 6-1 victory over Cuba in Group A action at the Estadio Cuauhtemoc. Kennya Cordner and Dernelle Mascal led the way with two goals apiece while Nikeisha Noel and Shanelle Warrick also contributed with a goal each.
Canada and USA finished first in their respective opening round groups at the 2008 CONCACAF Women’s Under-20 Championship in Puebla, Mexico held over the weekend.
Jollene Filigno scored three times to lead Canada to a 4:0 win over Costa Rica and claim the top spot in Group B on Saturday at Puebla’s Estadio Cuauhtémoc. Both teams had already progressed to the semifinals of the CONCACAF Women’s U-20 Championship.
In another Group B encounter, Shakira Duncan notched four goals for Jamaica in the 6:0 triumph against Nicaragua.
On Sunday, the USA took the first-place honors in Group A after posting a 3:0 win against the hosts, Mexico. Michelle Enyeart, Kelly O'Hara and Madeline Nicole Washington all scored for the Stars & Stripes in the victory.
The USA and Mexico will now face Costa Rica and Canada, respectively, in the semifinals of the 2008 CONCACAF Women’s Under-20 Championship in Puebla on 25 June .
The two finalists will not only play for the CONCACAF title on 28 June at the Estadio Cuauhtémoc, but will also qualify to the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup Chile 2008. Prior to the final, the two losing semifinalists will compete in the third-place match for the last CONCACAF berth to the FIFA event. (concacaf.com, June 23, 2008)
