Cuilco FC (W) delivered a dominant away performance in the Guatemala Women's Liga Nacional on May 10, 2026, dismantling Xelaju MC (W) 4-0 at the Estadio Mario Camposeco. The comprehensive victory underlined Cuilco's growing reputation as one of the most fearsome attacking sides in the league.

From the opening kick-off, Cuilco took control of the midfield, pressing high and forcing Xelaju into unforced errors. The visitors' high-energy approach paid off inside the first ten minutes when striker María Auxiliadora López latched onto a through ball and slotted calmly past the Xelaju goalkeeper.

The early goal set the tone for a one-sided first half. Cuilco doubled their advantage in the 22nd minute through a well-worked set piece. A corner kick was flicked on at the near post, and defender Ana Lucía Rivera arrived unmarked at the far post to head home from close range.

Clinical Second Half

After the interval, Xelaju attempted to regroup but never found a foothold. Cuilco's relentless pressure forced a third goal in the 54th minute when winger Gabriela Méndez cut inside and fired a curling shot into the top corner. The strike effectively killed the contest, leaving Xelaju with too steep a mountain to climb.

The fourth and final goal came in the 71st minute. A flowing counter-attack saw substitute midfielder Carlota Peralta finish a team move that involved seven consecutive passes. The goal highlighted Cuilco's cohesion and tactical discipline under head coach David Interiano.

Standout Performers

María Auxiliadora López was a constant menace, scoring once and providing two assists. Her movement off the ball stretched Xelaju's backline throughout the match. Goalkeeper Andrea Morales kept a clean sheet with minimal fuss, commanding her area confidently on the few occasions Xelaju threatened.

Season Impact

The 4-0 win lifts Cuilco FC (W) into third place in the Liga Nacional standings, now six points clear of the drop zone and firmly in playoff contention. For Xelaju MC (W), the heavy defeat leaves them ninth, just three points above the relegation places. With the season entering its final stretch, Xelaju will need to find solutions quickly to avoid a fight for survival.

What's Next

Cuilco return home to face bottom-side Deportivo Suchitepéquez (W) in a match they will be heavily favored to win. Xelaju MC (W) will travel to face Municipal (W), a tough assignment that could define their campaign.
