Antigua GFC defeated Guastatoya 2:0 in the National League Regular Season - 3 on Sunday. The result gives the hosts three points from their opening fixture of the campaign.
I. Mora opened the scoring on the half-hour mark before the break. By then, Antigua had already established some control, though they rarely tested the opposition keeper. Shots on target came to three for the hosts, with none finding the net for Guastatoya.
The game shifted after fifty minutes when D. Sanchez received a red card for Antigua. To be fair, the home side still managed to extend their lead through W. Fajardo in the sixty-fourth minute. Guastatoya never really threatened to get back into the match.
Substitutions began flowing at sixty-one minutes, with J. Almanza among the first to come off. The hosts made five changes in total, while Guastatoya were still missing A. Maziero by the final whistle after his dismissal in the ninetieth minute.
Antigua dominated possession at sixty per cent, launching 117 attacks compared to Guastatoya's 96. But the difference was in quality rather than quantity — three shots on target versus none for the visitors.
The result leaves Antigua GFC at the top of the table after one game, while Guastatoya will be looking to regroup before their next fixture.
