In this closely contested match, Municipal Liberia edged out CS Cartagines with a solitary goal, which came in the second half. A critical aspect that defined the match was the discipline, or lack thereof, from both sides. CS Cartagines suffered from indiscipline early on, receiving two yellow cards within the first quarter-hour, and this aggressive play culminated in a costly red card. This dismissal tilted the momentum in favor of Municipal Liberia, allowing them to capitalize on their numerical advantage.

Municipal Liberia showed greater teamwork and cohesion, evident from their ability to secure five corner kicks compared to Cartagines’ zero. This offensive pressure kept Cartagines on the back foot, underscoring Municipal Liberia's dominance in the attacking third. The structure of their play, with consistent pressure yielding set-piece opportunities, paid dividends as they managed to break the deadlock. While Liberia was also shown three yellow cards, their fouls were less disruptive to their overall rhythm and did not result in numerical disadvantage.

Cartagines struggled to create meaningful chances, reflected in their zero corner kicks and inability to maintain structure after going down to ten men. The red card significantly disrupted their game plan, forcing them to adopt a more defensive posture, which allowed Municipal Liberia to control possession and dictate the tempo. Although both teams had an equal count of offsides, it was the disciplined execution from Liberia, combined with Cartagines' mistakes in maintaining discipline, that ultimately determined the outcome of this match.
