CD Leones Del Norte secured a narrow 2-1 victory over Guayaquil City FC in what was a competitive Serie B encounter. The home side took a decisive early lead with their first goal scored in the 31st minute, setting the tone for a dominant first-half display. Leones showcased better teamwork in the midfield, resulting in swift transitions that challenged Guayaquil City's defensive organization. The two yellow cards they received in quick succession after their opening goal did not deter their momentum significantly.

Guayaquil City responded in the second half with an equalizer in the 68th minute, demonstrating their resilience and capability to exploit the spaces left open by Leones' offensive approach. Despite enjoying fewer corner kicks, Guayaquil City's fewer attacking set-piece opportunities highlighted their struggle to maintain sustained pressure. Tactical discipline helped them level the score, but the imbalance in shots on target and possession handicapped their overall effectiveness.

The decisive moment came in the 86th minute when Leones' increased pressure resulted in their winning goal. The home side's relative composure and ability to execute when it mattered were crucial. Offside decisions played a minor yet strategic role, with Guayaquil City flagged twice, interrupting potential breakthroughs. Their lack of discipline in maintaining their line compounded issues against a well-drilled Leones backline. Such factors underscored Guayaquil City's need for sharper attacking coordination.
