Dwayne Atkinson led all players in the opening encounter with two shots on target. Goalkeepers Miguel Báez and Vino Barclett led their defensive lines with clean sheet efforts.

Moca FC is also seeking redemption after getting eliminated in the semifinals of the 2023, 3-2 on penalties, to eventual champion SV Robinhood of Suriname. The Dominican Republic side is unbeaten in the 2024 edition with three wins and two draws.
The winner on aggregate will advance to the Caribbean Cup Final and clinch a berth in the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup. In the case of another scoreless draw, extra time and penalties (if necessary) will decide the winner.
