Club Leones Del Norte and Guayaquil City shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw in Serie A. Guayaquil City struck first through Pablo Gonzalez in the 10th minute, but the home side fought back after the break and leveled things up thanks to Dario Pazmino's 61st-minute finish.
Gonzalez opened the scoring from an Edison Mero assist, giving the visitors an early lead. Pazmino equalised midway through the second half with help from Cristhian Solano, and despite a flurry of late pressure from Leones Del Norte, they could not find a winner. The match saw six yellow cards, with Roger Arias, Martín Javier Caramuto, Miller Bolaños, Gilmar Napa, and Jordan Morán all booked.
The home side completely dominated the stats — 59% possession, 33 total shots, and 9 corners to the visitors' 1. However, they only managed seven shots on target compared to Guayaquil City's five, and the visiting goalkeeper made six saves. Leones Del Norte were well on top but could not turn their superiority into three points.
