UPDATE: VI draw 1-1 with Guyana @ CONCACAF U17 Qualifiers



The ‘Nature Boys’ seemed to be bowing out with a 0-1 loss to the Golden Jaguars when Luca Stuttard scored a magnificent volley from the top of the 18-yard box in the 90+1 minutes of the game.
The VI’s top scorer, Stuttard, received the ball from a poor clearance after the VI had hit the far post from the right wing and skilfully flicked the ball up to volley home the equaliser for this third goal of the tournament.
Jaden Harris had opened the scoring for Guyana in the 53rd minute.
The VI finished 4th in Group B, ahead of St Maarten.
