53′: ROUGIER! ¡STICKY! José Mario Pinto, with two marks on him, dared to shoot from the edge of the area and the Motagua goalkeeper avoided scoring thanks to his great reflexes before the surprising shot at the near post.
50’: The dynamic of the game remains the same. We continue without clarity in the areas and emotions are cold.
START THE SECOND HALF! There are no variants in the capital squads.
45+3: THE FIRST HALF ENDS! Eagles and Lions go to rest equally. After 45 minutes of little or nothing, the blues had a post-zoom in added time, being the most exciting action so far in the match.
45 + 1: MOTAGUA POSTAZO! OLYMPIA WAS SAVED! After a center from the left that crossed the entire area, Juan Delgado finished off with a strong volley and goalkeeper Menjívar deflected it towards the right metal. It was the clearest action of the match.
THREE MINUTES OF DISCOUNT ARE ADDED!
45: Very rough the process of the meeting. The capital clubs do not give up spaces and continue without displaying a show.
37’: Nothing happens here. Eagles and Lions do not do or let do. Already times that we do not sing a shot at the goal.
32’: Many fouls by the Cyclone in the midfield. Michaell Chirinos is being targeted.
29’: ¡ALTO! The Olimpia goalkeeper, Edrick Menjívar, falls down due to muscle problems. The game stopped for a minute and a half. Just in case, substitute goalkeeper José Mendoza is already warming up.
27’: UFFFFFFF… how close was a blue free kick taken by Diego Rodríguez from the crescent. He was going in a good direction, but the ball barely went over the crossbar.
23’: A little furry… that was Olimpia’s first shot at Motagua’s goal. Michael Chirinos He finished very timid 20 meters from the goal.
20’: There is a lot of inaccuracy due to the intensity of the marking. So far we still do not see shine in a lousy National field, but yes, the game is very entertaining, although without a clear dominator. Lots of back and forth.
15’: First quarter of the match and still the León continues without shooting between the three posts defended by Jonathan Rougier.
7’: Shot inside the Olympic area by Eddie Hernández that crashes into the arm of defender Bryan Beckeles. The midfielder Mario Escobar allowed to continue.
5’: Follow the Motagua bombarding enemy camp. Olimpia tries to shake off the stalking but she can’t find depth. Pretty intense start.
2′: BOMBING AT THE HANDS OF MENJÍVAR! After a long domain of Olimpia, Motagua counterattacked and it all ended in a fierce shot by attacker Eddie Hernández that the goalkeeper caught.
7:06 PM: THE GAME STARTS AT THE NATIONAL STADIUM! Motagua and Olimpia are already playing in Tegucigalpa for the semifinal first leg of the Concacaf League.
