The Ticas upped the tempo after the break and almost found the breakthrough as Pablo Herrera shot wide, but Ruiz gave them the lead minutes later when he calmly side-footed the ball home following a whipped cross.
El Salvador sent a warning midway through the half as Esteban Alvorado was forced into a low save to keep out Alexander Larin's effort, before Correa popped up in added time to fire the ball into the back of the net to confirm a draw.
