In this tightly contested match, Deportivo Saprissa emerged victorious against AD Municipal Perez Zeledon, securing a 1-0 win. The pivotal moment that decided the outcome occurred early in the second half when Saprissa managed to convert one of their limited goal-scoring opportunities into the decisive goal. Statistically, Deportivo Saprissa dominated in terms of corner kicks, with a significant advantage of 10 compared to Perez Zeledon’s 2, reflecting their persistent attacking mentality and control over set-piece situations.

The home team struggled with discipline, which proved detrimental to their overall performance. Accumulating four yellow cards and a red card in the second half disrupted their team cohesion and forced tactical adjustments. This lack of composure contributed to Perez Zeledon’s inability to mount a successful counterattack or sustain pressure on the Saprissa defense, impacting their capability to equalize. In contrast, Deportivo Saprissa maintained a more controlled approach with only two yellow cards, allowing them to retain their structure and focus on maintaining their narrow lead.

Both teams were evenly matched concerning offsides, with one instance each. However, the difference in corner kicks and overall team discipline were the decisive factors in the match outcome. Perez Zeledon's incapabilities to capitalize on these opportunities and their susceptibility to defensive errors under pressure were exploited by Saprissa. Consequently, despite being relatively equal in open play, the combination of effective set-piece execution and disciplined gameplay secured Deportivo Saprissa the win.
