Alajuelense defeats Inter San Carlos 5-0 to return to qualification zone
Liga Deportiva Alajuelense secured a 5-0 victory against Inter San Carlos at the Estadio Alejandro Morera Soto during the ninth round of the Torneo de Apertura 2026. The win allows Alajuelense to return to the qualification zone, reaching fourth place in the standings.
Goals for the winning side were scored by Kenyel Michel (14’ and 64’), Ronaldo Cisneros (19’ and 80’), and John Paul Ruiz (84’). The match also drew scrutiny from analyst Henry Bejarano, who claimed that referee Pablo Camacho failed to issue a second yellow card to Inter San Carlos player Daniel Vargas, an error that reportedly caused significant frustration for Alajuelense interim coach Bryan Ruiz.
This victory marks the conclusion of Bryan Ruiz's interim tenure as director of the team, with the club awaiting the confirmed return of Óscar Ramírez.
