How to watch today's LD Alajuelense vs Real Esteli CONCACAF Central American Cup game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

LD Alajuelense is set to host Real Estelí FC in the decisive second leg of the 2024 Concacaf Central American Cup Final on Wednesday at the Estadio Alejandro Morera Soto. With the title and a direct spot in the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup Round of 16 on the line, both teams will be eager to seize the moment.

The first leg ended in a 1-1 stalemate at Estadio Independencia in Estelí, Nicaragua. Delis Vargas fired the home side into the lead in the 13th minute, slotting home from close range after a well-placed cross by Byron Bonilla. However, Alajuelense found a way back when veteran midfielder Celso Borges calmly converted a penalty in the 36th minute to level the score.

Late in the first half, Alajuelense came close to taking the lead. In the 41st minute, a powerful strike from Diego Campos inside the box was dramatically cleared off the line by Real Estelí's defense. The hosts almost stole the show in the closing stages of the match, but Pablo Gallego's right-footed effort from inside the penalty area in the 83rd minute failed to find the target.

To reach the final, Alajuelense narrowly edged past Guatemalan side Antigua GFC with a 1-0 aggregate victory in the semifinals. Meanwhile, Real Estelí advanced by the slimmest of margins, eliminating Costa Rican powerhouse Herediano on away goals after their semifinal tie ended 2-2 on aggregate.

The winner of this clash will be crowned the Central American Cup champion and claim a coveted spot in the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup Round of 16. While the runner-up, alongside semifinalists Antigua GFC and Herediano, as well as Play-In winners Deportivo Saprissa and FC Motagua, have also secured qualification for the Champions Cup, they will begin their campaigns in the first round.
