On Monday, on the third day of Group A, the United States topped at a perfect pace with nine points after beating Mexico 1-0, which ended in their elimination with no units and no supporting goals. Kristi Moyes (89th minute) scored the only goal in the match.
“Unfortunately we could not get the team to play in the tournament. Personally, I take responsibility,” Mexico coach Monica Vergara said at the post-match conference. “The players will have a strong duel. If we want to compete in these scenarios, we have to act differently.”
In the other match in the sector, Jamaica beat Haiti 4-0 with goals Trudy Carter (26), Khadija Shaw (58, 70) and Drew Spence (79). With this win, the “Reggae Girlz” team finished second with six points and secured their place in the World Cup.

In a match where a pass to the intercontinental play-off was at stake, Panama beat Trinidad and Tobago 1-0 with a goal from Marta Cox (43).
“Despite the fact that we haven’t hit the target yet, I think having this second chance to hit the target is what we save the most,” said Panama’s Mexican coach Ignacio Quintana. “These big kicks we received, especially in the first match (3-0 loss to Costa Rica), brought the group closer together.”
