Montego Bay, Jamaica – Guyana’s Golden Jaguars went down 1-nil to Jamaica when the two teams met on Friday evening at the Catherine Hall Stadium in Montego Bay Jamaica, in their FIFA International Friendly.
In front of a lively crowd in the St. James parish capital which is known to be a lucrative tourist destination, the first half ended
scoreless as the Jaguars defended valiantly under the assault of the “Reggae Boyz” attack, led by captain and striker Luton Shelton.
Although the initial stages of the second half was almost carbon body to the first half, Guyana begun to step up the gas with forward Carl Cort and wingers Dwain “Dugin” Jacobs and Dwight Peters leading the charge.
However in the 61st minute, the Jamaicans would find the back of the net. 21year old forward Jeremie Lynch of Jamaican Premier League side, Harbour View FC, scored on his debut to hand the Reggae Boys the victory.
Lynch was a late replacement into the Jamaica squad after star striker Ricardo Fuller had pulled out.
Guyana almost pulled a goal-back in the dying minutes of the game when right back Kester David headed a corner from Peters into the cross-bar.
