Olimpia's 2026 domestic and regional victories

Overview

In late July 2026, Honduras' most decorated club, Club Olimpia, secured two consecutive triumphs that set the tone for the season.

On 24 July, Olimpia captured the inaugural Honduran Supercopa, defeating city rivals Motagua 1-0 at Tegucigalpa’s Estadio Nacional. The winning goal came in the 54th minute after a hold-up by Jorge Benguché enabled Emanuel Cuello to finish past goalkeeper Luis Ortíz. Four days later, on 28 July, Olimpia began its Copa Centroamericana group stage with a 2-0 win over Guatemalan side Deportivo Mixco, featuring goals from Benguché and Edwin Rodríguez.

Olimpia continued its momentum into the Apertura tournament with a 3-1 victory against Motagua in the ‘Clásico Capitalino’ at the Estadio Nacional José de la Paz Herrera. Although Motagua took an early lead in the third minute through Cléver Portillo, Olimpia equalized in the seventh minute via Michael Chirinos. The match shifted when Motagua’s Denis Meléndez received a direct red card for a strike to an opponent’s face. Olimpia capitalized in the second half with goals from José García in the 50th minute and debutant Imanol Enriquez in the 76th minute, moving the club to the top of the table and maintaining a perfect run in the tournament.
