Ciudad de Panamá, Panamá — Xelajú MC wrapped up its training on October 1, 2025, in preparation for a critical match against Sporting San Miguelito in the return leg of the Central American Cup quarterfinals. The Guatemalan team heads into the match, set for October 2, looking to protect a two-goal advantage gained in the first leg.
