• [*]Plaza Amador-Atl. Chiriquí game was suspended after 67' minutes were played when incidents in the stadium, this lead for the remaining 23 minutes to be played closed doors, and no teams could change their starting line up. That game ended 1-0 in favor of Plaza Amador with goal from Alfredo Hernandez. But the Atl. Chiriquí denounced that Jean Estrebi (player in Plaza Amador) played the remaining 23 minutes without having starting the starting line up on the nights of the incident. The FEPAFUT ordered for the game to be replayed completely on May 9. Atl. Chiriquí won the game 2-0.
