The eagles will face this match after losing to Olimpia in the capital classic (3-0) and drawing against Saprissa in the Central American Cup (2-2).
In addition, the blue team lost one of its attackers in the last hours. Just like German Mejía did in the albos, Iván ‘Chino’ López resigned from the institution in the middle of the tournament due to a lack of minutes and is now a free player.
Real España, for its part, comes to the match after drawing goalless against Génesis at the Olympic Stadium. The Aurinegros, led by Miguel Falero, need to score as soon as possible to get out of the last places since they only have 14 points out of a possible 42.
THE CHOSEN ONE FOR THE CLASSIC
The person in charge of dispensing justice will be the Honduran referee Said Martínez, who last weekend brushed against the Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 32-year-old whistler received the invitation from Saudi Arabia to direct the match that Al Nassr ended up winning against Damac 2-1 with a great goal from a free kick signed by CR7.
Said has become one of the best referees in our region. For now, he has two Gold Cup finals in a row, the final of the last Concacaf Nations League, being present at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and refereeing Concacaf qualifying matches. He also had the opportunity to whistle at Leo Messi’s debut with Inter Miami.
For the duel between Motagua and Real España, Martínez will have Walter López (1) and Christian Ramírez (2) as assistants. Jefferson Escobar will be the fourth judge.
