This Saturday, the second leg of the final between Alajuelense and Saprissa (featuring Panamanians Fidel Escobar and Gustavo Herrera) will take place. The Manudos and Morados will face off again at 8:00 p.m. (Panama time) at the Alejandro Morera Soto stadium, following a 2-2 draw in the first match, in which Panamanian Fidel Escobar scored one of the goals and is expected to start in this important duel. For Liga, this is the chance to finally celebrate the long-awaited 31st title by overcoming the Monstruo. Alajuelense has not won the national title since December 2020. "We have dealt with this," said Alajuelense coach Óscar Ramírez. Meanwhile, Saprissa knows the need to make a statement at the Morera Soto with the aim of extending the series to two more matches. "Many like to remind us of our recent past, of how long it has been since we last beat Alajuelense, and even more so on their home field, but I can remind them from my own experience that at the Morera Soto we have played good games, we normally play good games," affirmed coach Vladimir Quesada. The grand final would also be against the Manudos. For this match, in case of a tie after 90 minutes, extra time will be played, and if the tie persists, penalty kicks will be taken. "This semester we have had the disadvantage of playing in Central America, and the opponent has had time to study us." "Finals against Saprissa are always difficult."
