Regardless, the Islanders poor showing in the 2010 SuperCopa Finals will keep them thinking about better planning for next year's tournament.

The Islanders will now face River Plate PR for the first time ever in Puerto Rican football history. River Plate PR defeated Sevilla FC Juncos with a 2-1 aggregate score after a controversial 1-1 draw last night, that saw River Plate tie the match and win the Semifinal on a corner kick goal, after the referee erred and overuled a lineman's 'out of bounds' call for a corner kick.
