Golden Jags to clash with Aruba and Jamaica in November

0

The Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) on Thursday confirmed the schedule and venues for the third and last round of group stage matches of the 2019-2020 CONCACAF Nations League.

The League A, B and C matches are set to take place during the November FIFA Match Window.

Created to maximise the match dates available within the FIFA international calendar, and as part of a wider strategy to provide more competitive football for all member associations, the CONCACAF Nations League kicked off in September, with the first six days of group stage matches delivering exciting competition and setting the course for the journey to the CONCACAF Nations League Finals and 2021 Gold Cup.

The second round of matches for the new centralised men’s national team competition, which represents a new era of national team football for the Confederation, took place in October with plenty of action.

Honduras, with victories over Trinidad and Tobago and Martinique, is the first team to secure a spot in the Nations League Finals and the 2021 Gold Cup. Canada also earned a spot in the Gold Cup with a 2-0 win over the United States.

After group stage round-robin play, the four ‘League A’ group winners will advance to the CONCACAF Nations League Finals to crown the first-ever competition champion. The CONCACAF Nations League Finals will take place in June 2020 at a venue ‘to be announced’.

Additionally, the group winners from ‘League B’ and ‘League C’ will be promoted to Leagues ‘A and B’ respectively, while the teams at the bottom of ‘League A’ and ‘League B’ will be relegated to Leagues ‘B and C’ respectively for the next edition of the CONCACAF Nations League.

The Confederation confirmed in September 2019 that the 2019-2020 CONCACAF Nations League group stage will serve as the qualifying pathway for the 2021 CONCACAF Gold Cup for all 41 member associations.

Guyana’s next two Nations League games will respectively be against Aruba and Jamaica, at the Leonora Track and Field Facility in Guyana and at the Montego Bay Sports Complex in Jamaica respectively.

The Golden Jaguars have so far recorded two wins and two losses, and have six points — behind Jamaica, who have four wins and eight points.
