In the latest Primera Division clash on 3 August 2024, Deportivo Saprissa emerged victorious over Municipal Liberia with a scoreline of 2-1. Saprissa's goals were both scored in the first half by midfielder Juan Martinez, with assists coming from winger Leo Campos and forward Carlos Diaz. Municipal Liberia's lone goal was netted by striker Alejandro Rojas in the 75th minute, assisted by midfielder Fabio Gonzalez.

Saprissa's offensive efficiency was a decisive factor in their victory. Although both teams had an equal number of shots on target (5), Saprissa's conversion rate was superior, capitalizing on 40% of their on-target shots. On the other hand, Municipal Liberia struggled with their finishing, converting just 20% of their shots on target. This disparity in shot efficiency underscored Saprissa's clinical finishing in front of goal.

Defensively, Saprissa showed greater resilience, managing to save 4 out of Municipal Liberia's 5 shots on target, with goalkeeper Julio Perez playing a crucial role in maintaining the lead. Meanwhile, Municipal Liberia's goalkeeper, Ricardo Mendoza, displayed commendable skill with 3 saves but was ultimately outperformed in key moments.

In terms of midfield dominance and ball control, both teams exhibited balanced gameplay, as evident from the number of corner kicks, with Saprissa winning 6 and Municipal Liberia 5. However, Saprissa's transitional play and ability to make impactful substitutions proved pivotal; two of the three substitutions made by Saprissa directly contributed to game management and preserving their lead.

Municipal Liberia's disciplinary record was notably clean, with no yellow or red cards, but it perhaps highlighted a lack of aggression needed to disrupt Saprissa’s rhythm. Both teams maintained a disciplined game with minimal fouls, which kept the match fluid and competitive. However, Saprissa's marginally better teamwork and shot precision were the key differentiators that secured their triumph over Municipal Liberia.
