Belize leads at half on Smith penalty

By Aaron Humes: There’s still a long ways to go but the Jaguars are on the positive side against St. Kitts and Nevis, leading 1-0 at the half.

Carlos Bernardez was taken down inside the box just minutes into the start of the game and Alexander Smith converted the penalty.

Coach Vincenzo Annese returned to a much more experienced side including such mainstays as Everal Trapp, Smith, Norman Anderson and Deon McCauley, and the Jaguars contained the home standing Sugar Boyz in the first half, allowing no shots at all and more than 50 percent possession.

Depending on the result of the later game between French Guiana and Grenada, it may be enough to keep Belize in the hunt.
