Barbados scored 5-0 against Puerto Rico, and not only earned the second victory of the competition but also became the lone team topping the tournament in the women competition, due to their two victories at the tournament organized by PAHF. The competition will carry on until Sunday at Campo San José.
In a single match of the day, Barbados played a good teamwork game, reaching their attacking circle several times from both sides of the pitch, and taking advantage of the mistakes of their rivals. These facts led to the goals by Patrina Brathwaite (2), Jada Prescod, Keisha Jordan y Tammisha Small (1 each) earning their victory.
“It’s very rewarding to finish a match like this; we could play as it was planned. We know we’re in the right path. The day after tomorrow we’ll play with Brazil, and we know it’s a very tough rival, but we’re confident we will battle the match,” said Brathwaite.
Brazil and Peru share the second position in the competition with 4 points each, as a result of one victory and 1 tie. None of the teams played today.
Tomorrow Peru will meet Panama, in the favorite match of the day, featured at 4 PM.
