To manage the Superclásico rivalry between Club Olimpia and Club Cerro Porteño, the Paraguayan National Police initiated a nationwide security operation. This included heavy deployment in Asunción and the Central Department, featuring multi-stage verification processes, sobriety tests, and strict identity card checks to prevent unrest.

During the match at the Defensores del Chaco stadium, Olimpia achieved a 2-1 comeback victory in the Clausura tournament. Cerro Porteño took an early lead in the first half through Alexis Cañete, but Olimpia secured the win with second-half goals from Eduardo Delmás and Hugo Sandoval. Following the match, Olimpia coach Pablo Vitamina Sánchez noted the team’s ability to “turn the page quickly” after recent international eliminations, while captain Richard Ortiz stated the victory provides a “significant psychological boost” for the squad.

Security measures were active during the event, with police intercepting a fan attempting to enter the Cerro Porteño sector while wearing an Olimpia jersey to prevent provocations. In a separate Futsal Liga Premium semifinal between the same clubs, the first leg in Capiatá ended in a 3-3 draw, leaving the series tied.
