In Group A, (at the time) 1-time national champion Real Premiostenango was eliminated by Deportivo Txirrulitaflám following a defeat against "Los Txirruferos" on the final group matchday. In Group B, Unión de Concepción went on a memorable run, but sadly didn't make it past the group consisting of LDJ and Premiostenango FC.
