LIVE | Communications vs. Xelajú MC collide in the first leg of the Clausura 2026 semifinals

Communications and Xelajú MC star this Thursday in one of the most anticipated matches of the Clausura 2026 league at the Cementos Progreso Stadium at 8:00 PM. Marco Antonio Figueroa’s Cremas will seek to take advantage of their home status to take advantage in the series against the tournament leader, in what is the most attractive duel of the semifinals with coach Roberto Hernández facing the team he led in the Apertura 2025 before arriving in Xelajú. Cementos Progreso promises to be a highly demanding venue for the Superchivos in the first leg.

Comunicaciones arrives at this semi-final with the confidence of having eliminated the two-time champion Antigua GFC in the quarterfinals with a 2-0 comeback in their stadium (4-3 on aggregate), in what was one of the most outstanding performances of the tournament. Los Cremas started Clausura 2026 fighting to avoid relegation and are now two series away from winning the title, with the extra motivation of playing at home where they have proven to be a difficult team to beat throughout the season.

Xelajú MC advanced to the final stages with first place in the classification. In the quarterfinals they left Marquense behind.

They come to this duel with several casualties that complicate the outlook for Roberto Hernández.

Rubén Darío Silva is still out due to a ruptured Achilles tendon, while the second goalkeeper, Nery Lobos, is recovering from a possible muscle tear, so Estuardo Chang will continue between the three sticks.

The good news for the Superchivos is the recovery of Chucho López, whose sanction was reduced from two games to one, leaving him available for this Thursday at Cementos Progreso.
