The Golden Jaguars carried their attacking intent into the second half, with Duke-McKenna striking again in the 48th minute to register his second goal of the afternoon and Guyana’s fifth.

Midfielder Nathan Ferguson completed the six-goal tally in the 51st minute, further underlining Guyana’s dominance and sealing an impressive opening-day victory before the home supporters

The Golden Jaguars have now recorded ten consecutive victories in their 2026 campaign, further strengthening their momentum as they pursue qualification for the 2027 Concacaf Gold Cup. The national team will return to action on Monday, November 16, when they face Puerto Rico at the Leonora Track and Field Centre in their final fixture of the November Nations League window. With a place at the 2027 Gold Cup within reach, Guyana will be looking to maintain its winning form and take another decisive step towards securing qualification.
