Our prediction for this World Cup 2026 match:
David faces Goliath face each other at Estadio Cuscatlan as El Salvador and Saint Kitts and Nevis go head to head in the World Cup qualification second stage final. El Salvador rolled over Saint Kitts and Nevis 4-0 in the first leg, with the team moving one step closer to winning the double-header. Hugo Perez’s troops have been scoring goals for fun of late, and we are positive that they will give fans yet another reason for celebration.
11 Deportivo attacker David Antonio Rugamas, who managed to find the net in each of El Salvador’s last five games, will pose a big threat to the opposition defenders. Saints Kitts and Nevis, on the other hand, face an uphill task in the second leg, and given their shaky defence, we do not believe that the underdogs are capable of upsetting La Selecta at Estadio Cuscatlan.
Highlighted Player (Andres Flores):
Nicknamed Ruso, Andres Flores joined River Plate youth academy in 2006. Flores played for River Plate’s Reserves from 2006 to 2008 and he was producing terrific displays with los Millonarios. However, he began his professional career in his homeland club Isidro Metapan, scoring ten goals in 95 appearances for the Salvadorian outfit. In 2012 he signed a loan deal with Danish club Viborg, but he played only one game for the Greens.
Andres Flores was then sent on a loan to New York Cosmos and after making eight appearances for the MCU Park outfit, he signed a permanent contract with the club in 2015. The El Salvador midfielder, who is capable of playing as a striker as well, made his debut for New York Cosmos on August 2, 2014 in a 1-0 loss to Carolina RailHawks.
Speaking of his international career, Andres Flores received his first call-up for the El Salvador national football team in March, 2008 in a friendly against Trinidad & Tobago.
