Two First-Half Goals Put Guyana Atop Nations League Group A

Guyana beat Cayman Islands 2-0 on Sunday, scoring through Liam Gordon in the 15th minute and Osaze De Rosario about 20 minutes later. Guyana Times reported that the team took the lead at the top of Group A, but missed chances after halftime left the score unchanged. Guyana is scheduled to travel to Puerto Rico for matches on October 1 and 4; the report does not name the opponents.

Guyana Times reported that the Golden Jaguars took the lead at the top of CONCACAF Nations League B Group A with a 2-0 win over Cayman Islands at Windsor Park Stadium in Roseau, Dominica. Liam Gordon scored in the 15th minute after Omari Glasgow set him up. Glasgow created the second goal as well, with Osaze De Rosario finishing about 20 minutes later. Both goals came before halftime.

The score remained 2-0 despite further Guyana chances after the break, including attempts by Glasgow and Darron Niles and a shot by captain Elliot Bonds that the Cayman Islands defence blocked. Guyana Times described the performance as commanding but said missed chances meant the score did not reflect it. The team is scheduled to travel to Puerto Rico for two more matches on October 1 and 4; the report does not identify the opponents.

The group position and tournament rewards are separate stages: Guyana would advance to the League B championship and secure promotion to League A if it tops the group. The four group winners would qualify directly for the 2027 CONCACAF Gold Cup, while the two best runners-up would enter the Gold Cup preliminaries.
