Young Reggae Girlz hammer Anguilla

Jamaica began their Under-20 Women's Concacaf preliminary campaign with a 6-0 victory over Anguilla in their group E encounter in Nicaragua this evening.

The young Reggae Girlz did their damange in the first half as Davia Richards opened the scoring from the kickoff with a good finish after being put through on goal by Natoya Atkinson.

Dannique Wilson doubled the lead in the 15th minute with Destiny Powell (27th), Atkinson (29th) and Tiny Seaton (43rd) completing the rout.

Jamaica would add one more in the second half to cap off a strong performance. They are now tied with Honduras who defeated Bermuda in the early game with three points but lead the group with a better goal difference (+6).

Jamaica will play Bermuda in their second group game on Sunday. Only the group winners will advance to the Concacaf Under-20 Women’s Championship.
