Keyrol  Figueroa’s  14th  minute  strike guided the  Central  Americans  to  the  major  historic  milestone, as  it  was  the   first   time  since  2013  that  Honduras   defeated  Jamaica. 

The  visitors were  later  reduced  to  ten   men, when   Dereck   Moncada  received  a  direct  red  card  from Costa Rican   referee  Juan   Gabriel   Calderon   after charging   into   Jamaica’s   Ronaldo   Webster   near   the half  line.

The  loss  saw  the  Reggae Boys  slip to  fourth  in  the  standings  on  3 points.

The   Reggae  Boys  will  depart  the  island  on  Wednesday  for  San Salvador, were  they  will  tackle El-Salvador  on  Friday.  

Meanwhile,  suriname leads the group b’ table on 6 points after securing a 2-1 win over the winless Martinique last night, while Guatemala moved to second in the standings after slamming El-Salvador 6-nil.
