Guyana seeking to salvage football pride against Curacao

-

Guyana’s disappoint­ing campaign in the CONCACAF Men’s Under-20 Championsh­ip, continues at 12:35hrs today against Curacao at the IMG Academy in Florida, USA. The Guyanese enter the contest on a twogame losing streak, following humiliatin­g losses to Guatemala [4-0] and lowly Cayman Islands [3-2] on Friday November 2nd and Tuesday November 6th respective­ly. Curacao are also on a two-game losing streak and will fancy their chances of securing a victory. Their losses came at the hands of giants of the group Guatemala [3-1] and El Salvador [2-1]. With no chance of qualifying for the next round, Guyana will be playing for pride and will aim to avoid finishing the tournament on zero points. According to head-coach Team Manager Daniel Thomas at the conclusion of the Cayman Islands match, the team needs to improve and play collective­ly if they are to produce positive results. Guyana will end their group campaign on November 10th against group leader El Salvador from 19:45hrs.
