Aurora 2–1 Xelajú

Aurora needed a response, and Hendri Morales delivered two. Xelajú struck first through S. Cardenas in the 34th minute, taking the lead into the break, but Aurora flipped the Liga Nacional clash in the second half as Morales equalized in the 50th and then struck again in the 73rd to complete the brace and seal a 2-1 comeback win. It's a result that swings the head-to-head series in Aurora's favor, with the hosts now having beaten Xelajú twice in their last four meetings after trailing on the night. Neither side has a name among the league's top scorers this season, with N. Martinez still well clear at the top of the Liga Nacional charts on 21 goals, but Morales made his own statement with a performance that outscored half the league's attack in one evening. The turnaround, built entirely in a 23-minute second-half burst, is the kind of swing that rewards watching live. Catch both of Morales's strikes and the finish that put Xelajú's early lead to waste in the full highlights below.
