at West Port, Cayman Islands (Ed Bush Stadium)

St. Lucia 0, Belize 1

GOAL: Alvin Sifontes 56’

 

Man of the Match: Alvin Sifontes (Belize)

 

After a tightly contested first half that was well disputed in the midfield, Alvin Sifontes struck from inside the 18-yard box with 14 minutes remaining in regulation to give Belize a narrow 1-0 victory.  The match was the first in competition history to pit sides from the Caribbean and Central America against each other.

 

 

 

at George Town, Cayman Islands (Truman Bodden Sports Complex)

Jamaica 4, Grenada 0

GOALS: Peter Campbell 37’, 38; Stephen Malcolm 63’; Justin McMaster 66’

 

Man of the Match: Deshane Beckford (Jamaica)

 

Peter Campbell scored two goals and Jamaica defeated Grenada, 4-0.  The first half ended scoreless thanks to the outstanding play of Grenada goalkeeper Reshane Houston, who made several tremendous saves.  Three minutes after the interval, though, the Jamaicans jumped ahead 2-0 thanks to Campbell’s brace.  With less than 10 minutes remaining in the game, Stephen Malcolm (63’) and Justin McMaster (66’) added their tallies.
