Final
Olimpia vs Victoria
A very contradicting incident happened in the second leg match in which an Olimpian player clearly touched the ball with his hand inside the area which was a penalty at the final minutes of the match, but the referee Beningno Pineda didn't signal it. Local news report that the line man Reynaldo Salinas brought his flag up but then he got scared and drew it back down.[2]
- Olimpia won 4–3 on aggregate score.
