Controversy

Juticalpa F.C. and Real C.D. España qualified to the tournament's final after defeating C.D. Real Sociedad and Club Deportivo Olimpia respectively. The final match was scheduled to be played by the end of May. After Juticalpa and Real España were eliminated from the league, both teams decided to postpone the match until July and sent their players on vacations. By the middle of July, both teams had released and acquired new players for the upcoming season. The cup organizers released a statement disclosing that the clubs couldn't use the new signed players as these weren't initially registered at the beginning of the tournament. Consequently, Juticalpa announced that they would not show to the game claiming that they were short on players. A day later, the tournament's committee gave up at the pressure and finally announced that the clubs could use the new signings.
