BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) — Gio Reyna, a son of former U.S. national team captain Claudio Reyna, scored three goals to lead the Americans over Guadeloupe 8-0 on Thursday night at the CONCACAF Under-17 Championship.
The U.S. will play Panama on Sunday in the quarterfinals for the berth in the Under-17 World Cup.
Reyna, a member of the Borussia Dortmund youth system, scored the third U.S. goal in the 20th minute and the fifth in the 29th, then converted a penalty kick in the 42nd for a 6-0 halftime lead.
Alfonso Ocampo-Chavez scored off a pass from Reyna in the fourth minute and added a goal in the 68th. Griffin Yow scored in the 11th minute and Gianluca Busio in the 25th, and the U.S. got an own goal in the 70th.
