With no international games scheduled for Costa Rican teams, the country enjoyed a full weekend of First Division soccer with Puntarenas protecting its two-point lead over a struggling Saprissa in the A Group and Cartago enjoying a whopping seven points over Las Brujas of Escazu in the B Group but with Alajuela threatening the latter only a point behind.

So far, Alonzo Solis of Saprissa leads the season in goals with a luvky 13 followed by Puntarenas’s Kurt Bernard who has 11.

Results Sunday: Puntarenas put a halt to Heredia’s winning ways with a 2-1 victory. This time Puntarenas star Kurt Bernard did’t boot in the winning goal but fed it on a pass to Kevin Sancho. Alajuela edged Cartago 1-0 on Rolando Fonseca’s 300th career goal in 1st Division and international play. Las Brujas did not advance much while tying Carmelita 1-1

Saturday’s results were San Carlos over Santa Cruz 2-1, Perez Zeledon over Santos 2-0 and Saprissa doing little to better its position with a 1-1 tie with Liberia.
