GUATEMALA CITY (Interstat) — Dairon Reyes scored in the 40th minute to give Comunicaciones a 1-0 victory over Mixco in a Liga Nacional match Thursday at Estadio Cementos Progreso.

The lone goal broke a streak of consecutive draws between the rivals and handed Mixco a rare defeat in domestic play. The result improved Comunicaciones’ Liga Nacional record to 16 wins, 22 losses and 5 draws this season. Mixco, which entered with a stronger league standing, fell to 23 wins, 10 losses and 7 draws. The outcome slightly outperformed a pregame statistical projection that had favored Comunicaciones with a narrow probability to win.
