​Marathon defender Andre Orellana was eliminated in the 89th minute of the match against Olympia, fouling two players at the same time.

The match of the eighth stage of the championship gave Honduras a rare moment on the football field. Orellana rushed forward and pinned down two opponents.

The players who violated the rules were unharmed and remained on the court. Andre Orellana apologized at the end of the game.

“The truth is that I was wrong and I apologize. We are all human and learn from our mistakes. I think that was the phase where courage came over me. I need to learn to control my impulses.

I assure you that this will not happen again. Herman Mejia (not one of the players who was fouled) told me that this is part of football, that I have to work and move forward” – Andre Orelyanaquoted by DigiSport.
