Despite the margin, it was an improved display from the Jamaicans who saw what would have been the opening goal called back in the fifth minute while midfielder Kayla McKenna rattled the left upright in the 67th minute.

Debinha opened the scoring in the seventh minute and the Jamaicans defended stoutly until the 64th minute when Jheniffer daSilva Cordinali Gouveia came off the bench to score the first of two goals then made it 3-0 in the 79th minute.

Marta wrapped up the scoring in the 84th minute when she beat Jamaica’s goalkeeper Sydney Schneider from about 25 yards with a free kick to the bottom left hand corner.
