The last game is on Sunday January 10 at 4:00 pm, being Olimpia administratively the local. It is the last game of the competition. The team that manages to become the winner will compete against Marathon in the definition of the championship, which has 10 days off.
WHAT DOES THE REGULATION SAY IN THE CASE OF TIES?
According to the rules of the tournament set at the August meeting, it was determined that there will be no overtime as in other matches, this was done because the clubs were too full in their schedules and playing injury time would be exhausting.
That is why in the event that there is a tie in points and goal difference, the winner of the competition final is determined on the basis of the penalty kicks. Five throws are taken and if there is no winner, the goal is extended until the game is stopped.
Overtime hours only apply to definition by title. The winner of this final between Motagua and Olimpia will also play against Marathon every three days as he is the new champion of the National League’s Apertura 2021 tournament. The purslane will watch the bulls from the sidelines for now, waiting for the rival to search for another star.
