A second-half strike from Kenjy Montantin was enough to give Guadeloupe a 1-0 victory over hosts Curacao and a place in next June’s Concacaf Under-20 Championship in Honduras.
Following a goalless first half at Guadeloupe struck in the 58th minute to put the French territory ahead and they held on in a tense affair, to take all three points and become the first team to earn qualification.
According to Jamaica Observer, the result marked the third-straight victory for Guadeloupe and saw them top Group C with nine points to advance from the qualifiers.
In contrast, the defeat for Curacao resulted in their elimination as only the group winners will advance. They had previously beaten Saint Martin 5-0 in their opener and edged Belize 2-1 in their second outing.
Belize, meanwhile, clinched their first points of the qualifiers when they blanked Saint Martin 4-0 in the other game of the group.
