However, Marquense’s reaction soon arrived. Only five minutes later, at 15 ‘, the scorer Jorge Ortiz appeared, who with his instinct inside the area took advantage of a loose ball and sent it to the bottom of the network, putting the 1-1 and returning hope to the locals.
The party continued with a lot of friction and arrivals in both areas, but the figure of Kevin Moscoso began to be decisive. The Mixco goalkeeper became the great wall of his team, making several key shortcuts to prevent Marquense from getting the comeback.
At the close of the first half, Mixco suffered a hard blow. In 45+4 ‘, Jeshua Urizar saw the direct red card, leaving his team with 10 players for the entire second half and complicating the panorama for those led by Fabricio Benitez.

With the final 1-1, Marquense reaches 29 points in the accumulated table, but his situation is worrying, since he is now the last in the struggle for permanence, after the victory of Guastatoya, who with his triumph against communications reached 30 points, surpassing the lions and leaving the descent zone.
This draw leaves a bitter taste in Marquense, which had the opportunity to add three vital points and avoid falling to the last place, but the lack of forcefulness took its toll. For his part, Mixco adds an important point playing with a man less throughout the second half, but still can not get away from the danger in accumulated.
