The women’s team played like it had not been seen before in the entire regional competition and showed character and the desire to seek victory against the Paraguayan team, which in the first 18 minutes was in charge of seeking the advantage and did so at the end by the criminal route. Jessica Martínez took the punishment and scored 1-0 in Idalia Serrano’s goal.

The rivals went into halftime with a partial advantage, and upon returning to the 68th minute, and also via penalty, the legionnaire Samantha Fisher scored the discount and made the Cuscatleco team’s team shout at the top of their lungs, the historic first goal. of the El Salvador team in the Gold Cup.

After the tie, the sensations increased and at 83′, after Brenda Cerén’s drive through the front of Alicia Bobadilla, goalkeeper of the Guaraní team, the Atlas player assisted Danielle Fuentes diagonally and she maneuvered the ball and sent a direct shot to the net, the team took a breath and continued with the hope of reaching the quarterfinals, but this was started again by Martínez at 86′, again from the penalty spot (2-2).

The taste of a tie went away at 90 + 1′, when Jessica Martínez with the triplet sealed the Guaraní team’s ticket to the quarterfinals at the expense of the Salvadoran team.

For many, the match against the Paraguay team will be framed in a special chapter of the El Salvador women’s team, and will be remembered as one of the best matches that Eric Acuña’s team had in the first edition of the Gold Cup.
