Match report
Suriname beat Martinique 2-1 in the CONCACAF Nations League, with the 0-0 half-time score giving way to a decisive spell after the break. Justin Lonwijk and Gyrano Kerk put Suriname in front, and Boris Moltenis’s reply made the closing stages more tense without changing the outcome.
Suriname had 68% possession and registered 14 shots, while Martinique had 32% possession and 10 shots. The corner count was level, and Suriname’s advantage grew to a two-goal lead before Martinique found the net. Only Suriname ever led. The final score was 2-1.
How it unfolded
The sides went in at the break with the score at 0-0. Suriname broke the deadlock in the 54th minute, when Justin Lonwijk made it 1-0. That breakthrough was followed by Gyrano Kerk’s goal in the 69th minute, extending the lead to 2-0.
Martinique answered in the 81st minute, with Boris Moltenis reducing the deficit to 2-1. His goal left Suriname to protect a narrower lead, but Martinique did not find another equaliser. The sequence of goals settled the match: Suriname scored two goals before Martinique’s response, and held on for a 2-1 win for Suriname over Martinique.
