By Rubén Morales Iglesias: In Week 9 of the Premier League of Belize 2024-2025 Closing Championship, Progresso FC and San Pedro Pirates battled to a 1-1 draw at the People’s Stadium in Orange Walk.
Yubeiquer Arenas gave Progresso the lead in the 25th minute, but Jaheim Mena equalized for the Pirates with a penalty kick in the second half.
Progresso secured their playoff spot with this result, moving to third place with 14 points.
The San Pedro Pirates, however, find themselves in a precarious position, falling to fifth place with 9 points and out of the top 4. Their playoff hopes now rest on a must-win final match against league leaders Port Layola on March 29, after the international break for Belize’s Gold Cup Prelims qualifiers against Costa Rica.
