Aucas left Delfín with a 1-0 Serie A win thanks to Piero Guzmán's 67th-minute goal. The visitors had far less of the ball and only three shots, but they made the one that mattered count.
The game was goalless until Guzmán converted Andres Mena's assist on 67 minutes. Delfín had dominated possession up to that point but failed to test the Aucas goalkeeper, who made a single save. Five yellow cards were shown, with no red.
Delfín's control was reflected in the numbers: 58% possession, nine shots to three, and six corners to none. But they managed only one shot on target and ended with an expected-goals mark of 0.00. Aucas, despite being outplayed for long spells, finished with the decisive goal.
