Javier González at minute 92 rescues an agonizing draw for Xelajú against Antigua at the Mario Camposeco
The Antigua team GFC let slip a victory by 2 goals to 1 over Xelajú MC this Saturday night as a visitor, since in the last play of the game Javier González at minute 92 managed to equalize and thus avoid the fall of the “superchivos” at home.
Xelajú MC, led by Guatemalan coach Amarini Villatoro managed to avoid his second consecutive loss (they fell to Deportivo Achuapa in one of the two games that were played on matchday 12 last weekend by 1-0) and rescued a draw in the last breath against Antigua GFC.

The game started with a victory for the “superchives“It was through the player Elmer Cardoza that those led by Villatoro found the formula to open the scoring in the first half. It was in the 45th minute, when Cardoza finished off the ball with an advantage and made it 1-0 in favor of Xelajú.
Things did not go in the best way for the locals in the second half, since in the 60th minute Cristian Alexis Hernández received the ball near the area and a shot from his left leg beat the goal defended by José Calderón, thus achieving a 1-1 equality momentarily.
Finally, in the 73rd minute, the Brazilian Romario Luiz Da Silva took advantage of a Calderón rebound after a shot by Oscar Castellanos and drilled Xelajú’s goal.
