GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands – Mexico will meet Costa Rica in the semifinals of the 2014 CONCACAF Women’s Under-20 Championship after defeating Trinidad & Tobago 3-0 in the Group B decider on Tuesday at the Truman Bodden Sports Complex.

The Mexicans made it five wins in five all-time encounters against Trinidad in the competition, concluding first-round play with maximum points from three games.  The runner-up Soca Princesses, who lost for the first time in three outings, will meet the Group A champion United States in the second game of Friday’s knockout stage doubleheader

The opening half hour was played at a fairly even pace with little difference between the sides evident.

Mexico finally broke the stalemate, however, in the 33rd minute.  Paloma Zermeño sent a speculative left-footed effort from 28-yards out towards the Trinidad goal that slipped underneath goalkeeper Tenesha Palmer and rolled across the line.

The Tricolor kept its foot on the gas, looking to net a second goal before the break.

Palmer made amends for her earlier misstep in the 42nd minute by leaping magnificently to save a looping header from the edge of the 18-yard box by Zermeño.

In the second minute of first-half injury time, Trinidad went for an equalizer, but Shanisa Camejo’s long-range attempt was seized confidently by goalkeeper by Cecilia Santiago.

Three minutes following the break, Mexico would go ahead, 2-0.  Zermeño popped a corner kick into the air and Paulina Solis was there to head it home.

Seven minutes later, a right-sided cross by Trinidad’s Donika Murray found Brianna Ryce at the top of the box.  The DePaul University midfielder immediately took a shot that Santiago bobbled, but gathered in before the arrival of a lurking Anique Walker.

Solis completed her brace with 13 minutes left in normal time, converting on a penalty kick after Fabiola Ibarra was fouled in the box.

The tournament finalists will earn tickets to the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, accompanied by the winner of the match for third place.
