FAS brought a good omen to all the tiger fans, defeating Alianza 3-2 on penalties in the women’s First Division final.
FAS suffered, let go of the advantage and held in the extension, almost without legs, but was efficient on penalties and broke the dominance of Alianza Women to become the new monarchy of the Major League Women.
FAS made Alianza suffer a lot in the first minutes and the possible explanation was nerves and pressure, although Francisca González’s early goal confirmed it at minute 17. Between the white defenders there was no due communication or precision in the pass, and González did so. understood well; he prowled, stole and headed for the goal to beat Gutiérrez one on one.

From there, the final became much more closed, because FAS dedicated itself to containing the natural response of Alianza, who tried to open the court, filter balls in front and take free throws, but without success. The firmness of the tigrillas and their concentration, with or without the ball, was essential to reach zero in their goal in the middle of the game.

With the slogan of killing the party, FAS went hunting the Alianza Women from the beginning of the second half, locked her in her own area and almost prevented her from any reaction capacity. Almost, because when Alianza was able to leave, it began to regain ground; she won a stopped ball at 79 ′ and on the ball passed to the far post, Brenda Cerén fished and introduced it alone in the goal.

The albas, overturned, played the role of beast and the tigrillas, that of the victim. A distant shot that almost got out of hand for goalkeeper Roxana Vega and a shot at the crossbar by Sandra Tamacas could give the victory over the hour to Alianza and avoid overtime. A target shot that greeted the hairpin was a false omen of an equally busy match, but in reality the extension ended up being more even, disputed and strenuous for the legs of the players, who drew strength from nowhere to stay on their feet.
Already on penalties, the figure of Roxana Vega grew, the best goalkeeper of the championship and who covered two of the shots with which Alianza missed and that gave the cup to FAS.
